The digital transformation initiatives across government agencies and the military are giving rise to a new generation of cloud-native, network-enabled applications, systems and solutions that are mission critical to their users, but only available with high-bandwidth network connectivity. Adding to this massive bandwidth requirement is the proliferation of sensors and the desire to aggregate and analyze data generated in the field.
Unfortunately, the high-bandwidth connectivity that is offered by terrestrial networks has historically been unavailable to government and military users at the tactical edge. Until now.
