Tom Keane explains how Azure is a hyper-scale cloud platform that can be a common technology platform for Earth and space applications. Bring your data to the cloud, analyze it quickly, and transform it into new products. Azure and its tools give developers the power to innovate with speed, scalability, and security in mind. Azure is the only US government qualified to provide IT systems for NASA projects.
Our infrastructure operates on high-availability grids with 99.95% uptime. Tom Keane says that Microsoft Azure can scale and deliver reliable performance. This is essential for the NASA mission. The United States is one of the tech powerhouses in the world.
Companies like Microsoft, Google, and Facebook are developing new technologies to help the United States be a superpower in space. Space is becoming more competitive than ever before. NASA and other space agencies are trying to prepare for the next twenty years. According to Tom Keane, this means certain technologies need to be developed. For example, NASA is looking for technology to use in space.
Microsoft Corporation has been working with NASA on many projects for many years. Since the beginning of the company, Microsoft has been willing to invest and dedicate itself to making new technologies available specifically for Space. Microsoft, NASA, and HPE have created a program to test AI workloads in space (Crunchbase).
The system can detect damage to astronaut equipment by running the tests in an environment that simulates the conditions in space. This can greatly improve the productivity of the astronaut and reduce damage to expensive equipment. An AI-enabled software and hardware platform can help NASA to learn more about our solar system. Tom Keane finally adds that the information gained through this system can help NASA and other space agencies properly plan new technology development.
