The collaboration is focused on integrating SCOUT’s Space Domain Awareness (SDA) product with LEOcloud’s Space Edge IaaS offering. The agreement for the development of advanced Space Domain Awareness services involves an early demonstration of SCOUT’s solutions operating on LEOcloud’s Infrastructure as a Services (IaaS).
"This partnership with LEOcloud is mutually beneficial. SCOUT’s on-orbit sensing and analytics capabilities for in-space events and objects provide at-scale, unparalleled transparency on space operations, and widespread spaceflight safety enhancements. Joining forces with LEOcloud’s IaaS and their signature Space Edge hybrid cloud services to enable the lowest latency for AI and predictive analytics deployed in orbit, driving competitive and operational advantage for commercial, government, and military organizations,” said Eric Ingram, Co-founder, and CEO of SCOUT. “We look forward to providing cutting edge SDA solutions and services to select customers as a result of this partnership”.
“LEOcloud’s Space Edge mission and strategy is to bring hybrid cloud edge computing services to LEO and beyond. End users can then operate their R&D, business, or mission-critical services or applications in a seamless hybrid cloud environment, and realize the lowest latency possible for conversion of data from raw to deep actionable insights. The combination of LEOcloud’s IaaS with space-based sensing services provided by SCOUT presents a compelling value proposition,” said Dennis Gatens, Founder & CEO of LEOcloud.
SCOUT’s in-space products and services, first launched in June 2021, allow spacecraft to see and understand things around them.
The LEOcloud mission is to offer a space-based multi-cloud Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) that will enable cloud service providers to extend their cloud services in LEO and beyond.
