Flexible, scalable and sustainable: the new power behind tomorrow’s weather predictions
The world’s leading weather-forecasting companies, usually process weather data four times a day, which, depending on the speed of execution, can take around two hours at a time. This can be very expensive when using the cloud – resulting in companies only using cloud capacity for eight out of 24 hours, leaving a lot of downtime still to be paid for.

By producing business insights and action plans calibrated to a minute-by-minute forecast, they can automate decision-making at scale, helping countries, businesses and individuals better manage their weather-related challenges.
But they also had a vision to do things differently.
