We were glad to take part in the EOS Workshop 2026, the tenth edition of the workshop, held at CERN in Geneva on 9–11 March 2026. Organized by the CERN EOS Team, the workshop is a platform for exchange between the developers, users and sites running EOS, bringing together both long-time members of the community and newcomers.
EOS plays a concrete role in ORCHIDE: we rely on it as the POSIX-compliant distributed storage solution behind our Storage Manager, providing the interoperability our onboard space platform needs to exchange data across a heterogeneous, multi-node cluster. Presenting at the workshop gave us the opportunity to share how a space-edge platform makes use of EOS.
It was a valuable exchange, and we are grateful to the CERN EOS Team and the community for the welcoming and insightful discussions. We look forward to continuing the conversation as ORCHIDE moves towards its open-source release!
