  Redefining cloud native with the Coalesced Chunk Retrieval Protocol

  What happens if we question current assumptions around Cloud-Native Geospatial (CNG) and imagine what it could be if we were to redefine it with new technologies? The Coalesced Chunk Retrieval Protocol (CCRP) is one idea born of this thinking, aiming to help make CNG more efficient and easier for both data consumers and producers.
