Enabling Mission-Critical Edge for DOD with AWS + Spectro Cloud: Secure, Simple Kubernetes Anywhere
Defense and many other public sector missions often need cloud-native applications to run in locations the public cloud can’t reach. AWS architect Rob Goodwin joins Spectro Cloud architects to show how you can extend Amazon EKS to the tactical edge using AWS Outposts, combined with Spectro Cloud’s VerteX Kubernetes platform.
This webinar is ideal for federal IT leaders and mission owners looking to extend modern infrastructure beyond the data center. You’ll leave with a clear, actionable roadmap for deploying secure, resilient Kubernetes clusters anywhere the mission demands — powered by AWS and Spectro Cloud.
You'll also learn about:
- Building blocks of AWS Hybrid Edge Services and how Outposts fit in the DOD landscape
- Buying COTS hardware through AWS streamlines procurement and compliance
- Policy-driven cluster lifecycle management that makes edge nodes easy to replace and standardize
- Cost-optimization tactics that preserve security across environments
- A real-world “cloud-to-edge” DOD use case
