The ongoing digital transformation and software containerization are enabling the use of HPC s in most of the fields of human activities. The new digital hyperconnected world need HPC scientists and not just only Data Scientist.

The aim of this work is the development of a computational ecosystem for nearly real-time inversion of high spectral resolution infrared data coming from meteorological satellites. The ecosystem has been developed as nearly real-time demonstration project to elaborate the level 2 products derived from MTG-IRS
