Abstract
The development of future-proof and durable IT landscapes is becoming increasingly important, especially for large-scale projects spanning decades, where the requirements for many individual building blocks change over time and have to be continuously modified. An example for such an ambitious project is the construction of the New Safe Confinement (NSC) for the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. It has been designed to provide multiple protections for a period of 100 years. A gigantic amount of diverse data is needed to realize this purpose, so IT structures must be developed and built in a foreseeing manner in order to achieve these ambitious goals. The concepts of “Continuous Development”, “Continuous Integration”, and “Continuous Deployment”, as well as the technologies “Kubernetes” and “Service Mesh” are introduced as important pillars for establishing such a future-proof IT system. Finally, a self-developed concept for an early detection forecast system of the locations and concentrations of radioactive aerosols, implemented within the NSC and based on the described pillars, is presented and discussed.
