ENTERPRISE VERTICAL ARCHITECTURE
Defense & Intelligence
IL4/IL5/IL6-ready sovereign cloud for defense logistics, intelligence workloads, tactical edge compute, and classified data operations — zero vendor lock-in on approved hardware lists.
Defense infrastructure stack
From tactical edge nodes to classified data centers — unified, audited, and air-gapped.
Document management (DMS)
Classified document vaults with mandatory access control (MAC)Intelligence product versioning with compartment labelsSupply-chain provenance records with cryptographic attestationFOIA-exempt archive management with classification reviewsLegal-hold and chain-of-custody for digital evidence
Hardware & storage
Approved Products List (APL) hardware lifecycle managementFIPS 140-2 Level 3 HSM for key ceremonies and signingWORM storage for immutable audit logs (DoD 5015.02)Ruggedized edge storage for deployed forward operating basesTEMPEST-certified node options for SCIF environments
Virtual machines & containers
SELinux mandatory-access profiles per compartmentConfidential compute (AMD SEV-SNP) for enclave workloadsAir-gapped Kubernetes with no external registry pullsImmutable OS images signed with DoD PKI certsCross-domain solution (CDS) integration for IL4 ↔ IL6 data transfer
Databases
PostgreSQL with row-security per classification labelRedis with TLS mutual auth and ACL per compartmentClickHouse for logistics and readiness analytics (SIPRNET-accessible)TimescaleDB for ISR sensor time-series ingestionEncrypted replicas within classification boundary only
Messaging & streaming
Kafka with SASL/SCRAM + mTLS for classified message busIBM MQ for legacy defense MTIPS/DISN gateway integrationNATS JetStream for lightweight field-device telemetryMessage-level encryption (AES-256-GCM) with key escrowReliable delivery with dead-letter alerting for mission-critical flows
Networking: IP, mTLS, DNS, LB

Compare plans →Primary Economic Drivers
- $Legacy hardware refresh cycles for approved-product-list equipment can be replaced with sovereign cloud consumption pricing.
- $Automated SCAP/STIG compliance scanning can reduce manual security-assessment labor per program.
- $Consolidated classified workloads (IL4→IL6 co-residency on sovereign infra) eliminate redundant classified network infrastructure costs.
- $CMMC Level 3 evidence automation can reduce the manual cost of program audits.
