Defense Unicorns exists to get software to warfighters and make running modern software on military systems easy. The company frames the problem plainly, that getting software onto military systems is a nightmare, and offers what it calls an open, secure, authorized, and easy to use solution.
The UDS Platform is described as a secure, portable, airgap native software delivery platform purpose built for military systems, covering build, package, deploy, and manage. UDS Fleet handles packaging, distribution, and deployment of mission apps to the edge, and UDS Enterprise adds portability across Azure, AWS GovCloud, on premise, and airgapped environments. As the company puts it, off grid does not have to mean disconnected.
The work is open source. The GitHub organization maintains uds-core, a secure runtime platform for mission critical capabilities, the uds-cli, Pepr, described as type safe Kubernetes middleware for humans, and Lula for compliance management, written mostly in TypeScript, Go, and Rust.
