The emerging SOSA hardware standard draws primarily from OpenVPX and other related VITA standards. The new technologies, topologies and environmental requirements critical to meeting SOSA objectives must be supported by extensions to these VITA standards. This paper is an overview of the SOSA and VITA organizations and how they interact, along with the challenges, successful strategies, and illustrative examples.
