Dear all,

We are excited to announce the launch of the EWC Community Hub — a centralized platform where EWC users can discover, evaluate, select, and deploy items and services tailored to the European Meteorological Community and running in EWC.

The Community Hub brings together a wide range of open-source contributions, designed to accelerate collaboration and make cloud technologies easier to use in meteorological application.

The platform is made up of three main parts:
• Community Hub Items: A growing collection of open-source resources, including Infrastructure as Code (IaC), configuration blueprints, containerized applications, algorithms, datasets, and documentation — all tailored to the EWC.

• Community Hub Dashboard: A single interface where you can browse, filter, and select the items that best fit your needs.

• Community Hub Tooling & Documentation: Step-by-step support to help you use the items effectively, regardless of the technology.

More specifically, the Community Hub fosters collaboration among EWC users, provides cloud technologies tailored to meteorological applications, and offers community-vetted resources to reduce duplicated work. It also supports learning through practical examples and helps transform existing software into cloud-compatible solutions.

To start exploring, visit the EWC Community Hub.

We have many items from the EWC team but there are already some Community Items and we look forward to work with you on getting more items available to the EWC Community. Check this link to learn how you can contribute to the EWC Community Hub

For further details, documentation how to deploy, check the EWC Knowledge Base.

We also released an initial version of the European Weather Cloud (EWC) Command Line Interface (CLI) to interact with EWC services. The ewccli It's a Python package and available on PyPI, soon on conda-forge. Check here for more info. We look forward to your feedback. It's also open source! (so also Issues or Pull Request directly there are great!)

If you need assistance or would like to provide feedback, please reach out via the EWC Support Portal or join the conversation on the EWC Discussion Platform.

Best regards,
The EWC Team
