Abstract

The chapter introduces MESA, a microservice-based system designed to support environmental science software applications. It addresses the limitations of monolithic systems, such as slow querying speeds and management issues, by providing a distributed support system built with a microservice architecture. MESA was implemented to support the Nevada Research Data Center (NRDC) and its data hub, demonstrating its practical applicability in real-world environmental research projects. The paper evaluates MESA against similar systems, highlighting its advantages in functionality and flexibility. Notably, MESA does not require a complete system refactoring, making it a viable solution for small to midsize environmental research projects. The chapter also discusses MESA's software specifications, use cases, and future work, including plans to enhance machine learning and high-performance computing capabilities. Overall, MESA offers a robust and adaptable platform for environmental research projects, bridging the gap between outdated systems and expensive new ones.
