Delivering Science as a Service: Sci-Orchestra's Cloud-Native Approach to HPC

The increasing complexity of modern computational environments often burdens researchers with infrastructure management, authentication protocols, and container deployments. We present Sci-Orchestra, a layered orchestration framework designed to fully automate experimental workflows, allowing scientists to prioritize scientific discovery over backend operations. By abstracting execution through an API-driven interface, the system assumes responsibility for secure authentication, resource management, and scalable deployment across diverse high-performance computing environments using Kubernetes architectures. A key innovation of Sci-Orchestra is its autonomous marketplace, which serves as a catalyst for cross-institutional collaboration. Through an intuitive user interface, researchers can rapidly deploy and share specialized services via simple selections, eliminating the need for complex installations and technical setups. This modular infrastructure is specifically designed to facilitate industry partnerships as it provides a secure execution environment and allows external collaborators to test and validate proprietary tools without the need for source-code exchange. This ``black-box'' interoperability protects intellectual property while enabling seamless integration into broader scientific pipelines, ultimately accelerating the transition from laboratory prototypes to industrial-scale applications.

Exact Gaussian Processes for Massive Datasets via Non-Stationary Sparsity-Discovering Kernels

A Gaussian Process (GP) is a prominent mathematical framework for stochastic function approximation in science and engineering applications. This success is largely attributed to the GP's analytical tractability, robustness, non-parametric structure, and natural inclusion of uncertainty quantification. Unfortunately, the use of exact GPs is prohibitively expensive for large datasets due to their unfavorable numerical complexity of $O(N^3)$ in computation and $O(N^2)$ in storage. All existing methods addressing this issue utilize some form of approximation -- usually considering subsets of the full dataset or finding representative pseudo-points that render the covariance matrix well-structured and sparse. These approximate methods can lead to inaccuracies in function approximations and often limit the user's flexibility in designing expressive kernels. Instead of inducing sparsity via data-point geometry and structure, we propose to take advantage of naturally-occurring sparsity by allowing the kernel to discover -- instead of induce -- sparse structure. The premise of this paper is that GPs, in their most native form, are often naturally sparse, but commonly-used kernels do not allow us to exploit this sparsity. The core concept of exact, and at the same time sparse GPs relies on kernel definitions that provide enough flexibility to learn and encode not only non-zero but also zero covariances. This principle of ultra-flexible, compactly-supported, and non-stationary kernels, combined with HPC and constrained optimization, lets us scale exact GPs well beyond 5 million data points.
