Understanding digital transformation and cloud migration is fundamental to a successful journey. One needs to understand the network, latency, security, data sovereignty, etc. and most importantly, the culture change being a key factor. Let's also not lose sight of the future and how AI can play a beneficial role in the foundation of such transformation. Great insight.

Insightful article by Joris van Oers on how a resilient fabric can help digital transformation sail through the clouds. Know your facts before you take the leap. #GlobalFabric #Multicloud #NaaS

NaaS? What is it? NaaS (Network as a Service) provides an agile network solution for multinational clients to connect: - their own sites 🌐; - their public clouds such as Azure, AWS, SAP, etc. ☁️; - their edge clouds (small data centers at the factory or site level) 🏭; - their private clouds (their own data centers) 🖥️. The pay-as-you-go scheme of NaaS allows you to scale resources up or down based on needs to maximize efficiency. Just as you no longer buy a car but rather rent one for a weekend trip, a van for the holiday, or an electric scooter for a short ride, the same principle applies to global connectivity. The above approach is, in fact, referred to as MaaS (Mobility as a Service). In the same way multinational companies only pay for what they need when they need it. Read Joris van Oers’ interview in NITEC (NATO Innovation and Technology) Magazine (pages 18-19, link in the first comment) discussing BT's NaaS solution called "Digital Fabric," providing end-to-end visibility, cost control, security, and compliance.

🖥 Digital interoperability! Interoperability is the cornerstone of NATO. For 25 years, NATO Allies and partners have gathered at the Coalition Warrior Interoperability eXercise (#CWIX), #NATO's largest interoperability exercise, to test the technology and standards needed to exchange and share information across all domains. This exercise is essential to NATO's future as an MDO-enabled Alliance, fueled by #DigitalTransformation. We, as MilSOFT, have proudly supported the #CWIX for over 15 years. This year, we showcased our: - Innovative Cross Domain Security product, Mil-CDS, featuring a unique JREAP to Link-1 conversion solution specifically developed for CWIX#24. - Advanced Tactical Datalink Simulator Product, TDLSIM, a participant of NATO Federated Mission Network (FMN), which enhances training and operational readiness. - Revolutionary solution developed as a subcontractor for ASELSAN's Radar Network (#RADNET), enabling diverse air-radar integration, seamless data transformation across multiple sites, and support for various message formats (AWCIES, ASTERIX, etc.). Discover how MilSOFT's cutting-edge technologies contribute to CWIX, driving connectivity, capability, and interoperability to new heights.

Allies launch strategic acquisition initiative to accelerate NATO’s Digital Transformation In a significant step towards enhancing NATO’s Digital Transformation, Defence Ministers from 22 NATO Allies* signed the Letter of Intent for the new multinational acquisition activity „Allied software for Cloud and Edge (ACE) services“. This initiative will revolutionize Allied operations by providing key building blocks of the Alliance-wide Digital Backbone. By integrating allied software solutions with cutting-edge cloud and edge computing technologies, ACE will improve operational efficiency by ensuring unified communications and enabling seamless sharing of data across land, air, maritime, space, and cyberspace domains of operation. * Canada, Czechia, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Spain, Sweden, Türkiye, United Kingdom, United States https://lnkd.in/eE5D4PaP #WeAreNATO #DigitalTransformation #WashingtonSummit #interoperability

Year after year, NATO's top experts gather at #CWIX to explore, experiment, examine, and exercise interoperability capabilities. Today marks the 25th time that #NATO's top interoperability exercise has kicked off, with over 2,500 participants testing more than 490 capabilities. #Interoperability and #readiness are crucial to the success of the Alliance, allowing national forces to deploy together, communicate effectively, and be effective from the start of an operation. CWIX has continuously driven interoperability forward for 25 years, adapting to meet the Alliance's needs amidst shifts in the #global #security landscape and advancements in technology.
