While Flux gives access to many standard APIs to access your data, it is not always clear which methods are right for a given application. Matt will dive into building real-world web applications using different Flux APIs to create rich experiences and discuss best practices.

👋 Stop by our booth at @cloudnativegeo.org to say hi to our team, see a demo of our platform, and pick up some stickers! #CNG2025
April 30, 2025 at 3:27 PM
📣 Our team is heading to the
@cloudnativegeo.org
Conference in Snowbird, Utah. We’ll be sharing our latest open-source work on Xarray, Zarr, VirtualiZarr, Icechunk, and leading a hands-on workshop, 𝑍𝑎𝑟𝑟, 𝐼𝑐𝑒𝑐ℎ𝑢𝑛𝑘, & 𝑋𝑎𝑟𝑟𝑎𝑦 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝐶𝑙𝑜𝑢𝑑-𝑛𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑣𝑒 𝐺𝑒𝑜𝑠𝑝𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑎𝑙 𝐷𝑎𝑡𝑎-𝑐𝑢𝑏𝑒 𝐴𝑛𝑎𝑙𝑦𝑠𝑖𝑠.

4/ 📒 How cloud-optimized formats are structured

🧊 How @zarr.dev and #Icechunk are designed to work efficiently in the cloud

🤑 How this saves you money
