EQUIPPING AN AGILE ELECTRONIC ECOSYSTEM FOR
THE FUTURE
Establishing a modular and open architecture defense electronic
ecosystem is a crucial part of our current and future national
defense plan. Defense dollars are not limitless and can be spent
either on the proprietary development of otherwise common
computing components or on improving specialized sensors
and defensive systems. By adopting some of the open standards
developed by the OCP community, the DOD can augment
and speed up its drive toward full deployment of a modular,
sustainable and open architecture electronic ecosystem.
The Mercury Processing Platform makes the latest commercial
technologies profoundly more accessible for today's most
challenging aerospace and defense missions. An end-to-
end processing platform purpose built to deliver the critical
technologies necessary for mission success, it brings together
technologies that range from silicon to systems with examples
such as displays, servers, RF and storage. Mercury Systems
is ready and well-positioned to help the DOD bridge this gap
between its MOSA mandate and commercial OCP-based projects
and standards. Visit our website at mrcy.com to learn more
about CMS and other available open and modular solutions.
