Sponsorship

Did you know that the European Space Agency (ESA) will sponsor your use of Polar TEP for pre-commercial exploitation, research and educational purposes?

See the Network of Resources (NoR) Portal and this webpage for additional information.

[ 1 ] Machine learning environment

Polar TEP has implemented the MLflow platform to support machine learning activities.  MLflow is an open-source platform to manage all stages of the ML lifecycle, including experimentation, reproducibility, deployment, and a central model registry.

 

Once a processor has been trained in the machine learning environment, it can be ported to Polar TEP's processor execution environment for routine operational processing.

[ 4 ] Processor Execution Environment

Polar TEP provides built-in processors, or users can develop their own (in the Polar TEP Development Environment or in the user's own environment) and implement them in the Polar TEP Processor Execution Environment through the use of headless execution or Docker containers. Processors can be used privately or shared with other users.

  • PTEP-EE Standard
  • Up to 500 CPU hours of processing time per month.
  • €500

    per month
