The next generation of research infrastructure and large scale scientific instruments will face new magnitudes of data. This talk presents two flagship programmes the next generation of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN and the Square Kilometre Array (SKA) radio telescope. Each in their way will push infrastructure to the limit.In this talk, we will provide an update on recent developments in adapting OpenStack to compute-intensive workflows. We will demonstrate the use of pre-emptible instances at CERN, and bare metal containers optimised for HPC at the SKA.
