Grow a Dynamic Future with a Virtualized Ground

Virtualization Makes the Ground Simpler, Faster, more Manageable.

Takes advantage of the flexibility cloud computing technology offers
Supports migration over time from legacy hardware to virtual systems
Lowers operating costs, saves on resources and improves deployment times

Virtualization is Playing a Bigger Role in Satellite Ground Systems

Reduces Cost

Lowers OPEX and makes connections faster.

OpenSpace virtualization technology helps to automate satellite operations on generic servers or in the cloud.

Makes Operations Efficient

Manages operations more intelligently and dynamically.

OpenSpace virtualization technology allows resource-intensive applications that do not affect other operations.

Avoids Downtime

Reduces unscheduled interims and enhances resiliency.

OpenSpace virtualization technology allows for quick deployment of satellite operations and when needed, quick recovery.

The Move to a More Dynamic Ground System

In this article, Greg Quiggle, VP of Product Management from Kratos explains how the ground segment is evolving and adopting new technologies to become more virtual, software defined and cloud centric. While this shift in the ground model may seem radically different, it’s important to note this is not a futuristic dream; this software and cloud-based technology and concept of operations is in use in the terrestrial comms world, and in some satellite ground systems today.
