Designing and Implementing a Cloud Native Framework for Farm Data Analytics

Learn about designing and implementing cloud native frameworks for farm data analytics in this 35-minute conference talk from IBM's Braulio Dumba and Cornell University's Gloire Rubambiza. Explore their 17-month journey managing a digital agriculture platform that processed data from 1500 cows on a commercial dairy farm. Discover how they addressed challenges in multi-cluster management, fault-tolerance, and privacy by developing a cloud native networked system utilizing KubeStellar and Software-Defined Farm paradigm. Gain insights into how Kubernetes enables agricultural optimization through containerization and cloud-native computing, leading to improved workflows and streamlined operations. Understand the progress made towards implementing scalable, fault-tolerant data analytics in digital farming and its potential impact on environmental, financial, and societal outcomes.
