This chapter explores the evolution of data processing for the LHC experiments at CERN, highlighting the shift from local to globally distributed systems. It addresses the challenges of managing large datasets and software accessibility, focusing on the innovative CVMFS file system and solutions derived from cloud computing principles.

ENGLISH EDITION: There are a lot of "large" things at CERN, including the amount of data produced and the software needed to manage and analyse them. In this episode I talk to Laura Promberger and Jakob Blomer from the CERN virtual machine/file system VM/VMFS project about how this set of tools is helping researchers.
And not just physicists, as CERN VM/VMFS is also used in other areas of the high performance computing community.
