VECTORCORE | Framework
- Modular mission software platform for data-intensive analysis and decision support systems in the defense and security sectors
- The platform addresses two distinct operational environments that are required in parallel in modern military programs:
- deterministic, isolated mission systems
- scalable cloud-based analysis environments
- The architecture therefore follows a dual-platform strategy, consisting of the Core Platform for deterministic mission systems on dedicated hardware and the Cloud Platform for scalable, cloud-native data analysis and AI-based processing of large data volumes
Why complex software programs often fail
Uncertain requirements
- Use cases envolve throughout develpment
- System boundaries are not clearly defined
Lack of robust architecture
- Architecture emerges „during implementation“
- Technical issues arise early on
Unclear interfaces
- ICDs are missing or constantly changing
- Integration issues late in project
Agile development without a solid base
- Rapid feature development
- No robust platform to support it
Late integration
- System integration is only possible at a very late stage
- Risks become apparent too late
The platform strategy separates deterministic mission systems from scalable data analysis, while both remain connected via a shared data space
