A Coalition Perspective on Federated and Adaptive Clouds for Disadvantaged Tactical Networks
conference paper
Military missions typically involve joint coalition operations. Disadvantaged tactical networks in which they operate often (still) suffer from limited bandwidth, intermittent connectivity, variable latency, and dynamic topology. Performance assessments have shown that state-of-the-art and common off-the-shelf civilian cloud technology can be deployed in such disadvantaged tactical networks to provide federated and adaptive cloud capabilities, enabling improved data sharing and processing capabilities between mission coalition partners.
The NATO IST-193 RTG on Edge Computing at the Tactical Edge extends upon these previous performance results by addressing the system architecture challenges of distributing data and processing tasks amongst mission partners by means of federated and adaptive clouds in such disadvantaged tactical networks.
This paper describes the work on deployment orchestration and associated security challenges within the IST-193 RTG: its ambition, approach, status, and future work.
