Comtech announces dynamic cloud platform for satellite providers in US

Ken Peterman of Comtech Telecommunications Corp

Comtech has announced that its dynamic cloud platform (DCP) is now available for commercial and government satellite service providers in US and international markets. Comtech’s DCP will enable traditionally disparate satellite systems and ground station infrastructures to be integrated, creating a path to introduce cloud-based applications, waveforms, and services.

The company’s DCP is designed to be infrastructure, cloud, and application agnostic. This allows satellite customers to orchestrate, integrate, and manage a wide variety of applications, waveforms, and services across private, public, and hybrid cloud-based networks.

“We have proven and extensive experience integrating a variety of 5G technologies levering Comtech’s DCP for a number of terrestrial and wireless customers, including tier-1 mobile network operators. Now, our DCP is expanding into the satellite and space market-opening the door for commercial and government customers to integrate new network agnostic waveforms and applications that will help usher in a new era of ubiquitous, smart-enabled connectivity.” says Ken Peterman, president and CEO, Comtech.

Comtech is conducting trials and initial testing that will enable multiple satellite-based waveforms to be deployed using DCP across different cloud-based infrastructures. Comtech’s DCP now offers a satellite-based software development kit to allow for integration of virtualised ground stations and other applications across cloud networks. Comtech is also offering professional services to assist satellite customers with integration of recent applications on its DCP.
