From launch services, satellite operations, communications and ground systems to material suppliers, subsystems, engineering services, components, software providers and much more, this is where the European space community comes together to find solutions, build partnerships and drive progress.
YOUR MISSION.
YOUR DATA.
YOUR CONTROL.
ANYWHERE.
The space industry is one of the most digitised industries in the world. Modern satellites generate terabytes of sensor data every day. Space networks monitor satellite constellations in real time. Supply chains, maintenance processes and production planning are based on networked IT platforms. Artificial intelligence supports flight simulations, predictive maintenance and mission planning.
This development was technologically inevitable and commercially necessary: it enables efficiency gains, improved security analyses and scalable process landscapes. However, it is accompanied by critical dependencies that directly affect the resilience of organisations.
This is where modern cloud architectures come into play – but there is one crucial prerequisite: they must be based on Open-source technologies are based on. Proprietary solutions create new dependencies, whilst open standards restore flexibility and control.
On-premises cloud infrastructure from Cloud&Heat Technologies.
Built and operated with digital expertise.
Cloud&Heat Technologies is your expert partner for secure and independent cloud infrastructures for critical applications in the aerospace, defence and research sectors. For more than a decade, Cloud&Heat has been developing and operating cloud infrastructures based on tried-and-tested open-source technologies such as OpenStack, Kubernetes and – most recently – Proxmox VE. With this approach, the Dresden-based company enables SMEs and large organisations to achieve the highest level of transparency, independence and digital sovereignty.
Its customers include public sector organisations, companies in critical infrastructure areas such as defence and SMEs with digital service models across a wide range of applications. Cloud&Heat is also driving space research forward. One example is the ongoing ESA-funded KATESIP project, which aims to enable the secure, low-latency and failure-tolerant deployment and implementation of software updates in fully isolated, highly critical environments - using Kubernetes and μD3TN technology developed by Cloud&Heat's partner D3TN.
With Cloud&Heat, the choice is yours: deploy applications and store sensitive corporate, R&D or other aerospace data in our Public Cloud or build Cloud infrastructures for business-critical use cases in your own data centre Set them up and run them on-site. In any case, we’ll support you with our expertise and practical experience so that you can get the most out of your IT infrastructure.
