RES One™ Rugged Edge Server

Engineered for a 20+ year operational lifespan, delivering form-fit-function stability and seamless technology refresh to dramatically improve lifecycle management and reduce total cost of ownership.

RES One eliminates the costly redesign, re-integration, and re-qualification cycles that plague defense programs using traditional edge servers.

“I need an edge server that won’t force me into costly platform redesigns every 5-7 years as components go EOL, so I can focus budget on mission capabilities instead of integration rework.”
- Program Manager, Prime Defense Contractor

Futureproof Infrastructure with Open Hardware

The RES One Rugged Edge Server eliminates vendor lock-in by embracing the Open Compute Project (OCP) openEDGE standard. Alignment with the OCP ecosystem enables integration of other suppliers' modules, which simplifies technology upgrades, reduces costs, accelerates workloads, and provides a wide range of functionality for tactical data centers, signal processing systems, and remotely located console controllers.

Reduce supply chain risks with standard-based modules for greater supplier inventory.
Increase readiness through rapid tech integration and immediately fieldable components.
Lower total cost of ownership through reuse, reduction of on-hand inventory, and elimination of vendor lock.
