RESTON, Va., April 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- ORock®
Technologies, Inc., a high-performance hybrid cloud service
provider built on OpenStack and certified by FedRAMP and the
Department of Defense, together with Intel and Lockheed
Martin (NYSE: LMT) today announced the availability of
ORockCloud with Hardened Security, a joint technology offering that
provides commercial and federal organizations a next-gen solution
to address mission-critical workloads and high performance
computing (HPC) applications with greater security, faster
performance and predictable latency. ORockCloud with Hardened
Security, a verified Intel Select Solution, delivers a bare metal
experience in a multi-tenant environment for organizations that are
seeking greater system performance from boot through runtime with
their computationally intensive workloads, artificial intelligence
(AI) and HPC applications in the cloud and extended to on-premises
and the edge. ORock has recently been named an Intel Select
Solutions provider launching HPC-optimized Intel Select Solutions
on 2nd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors, with near-term plans for
3rd Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors.
Hardened Security Solution Offers Customers Security,
Performance and Predictability
The ORockCloud with Hardened
Security solution represents a collaboration of leading-edge
technologies from Intel, Lockheed Martin and ORock Technologies
that combines hardware, software and firmware that isolates
critical data. By protecting shared resources such as cores, cache,
memory and devices, the solution mitigates cyber threats and
simplifies the enterprise's acceleration of the broad deployment of
HPC workloads, with more predictable performance and security.
- Integrated security is the foundation of ORock's
technology innovations given mission-critical workloads demand a
layered yet seamless security approach. The solution integrates
Lockheed Martin's Secure Runtime Environment (SRE) with 2nd Gen
Intel Xeon Scalable processors to isolate an enterprise's runtime
environment to ensure confidentiality, integrity and high
availability for critical data. ORockCloud with Hardened Security
offers a minimum of 325 security controls across managed,
operational and physical security layers, providing organizations
added protection and control when running mission critical HPC
workloads.
- Consistent performance for advanced HPC workloads in the
cloud, on-premises and at the edge requires higher memory bandwidth
and efficient use of processor cores and cache. The combination of
sophisticated technologies from ORock, Intel and Lockheed Martin
allocate compute resources and capabilities from system power on
through virtualized boot and anchors a secure runtime environment
for applications running in ORock's OpenStack cloud
environment.
- Predictable latency provides consistency for
mission-critical workloads operating in the cloud or in virtualized
environments, akin to running bare metal with no resource
competition. Companies can expect cache consistency and
significantly faster performance with this solution.
"Lockheed Martin, Intel and ORock Technologies will transform an
organization's ability to better defend against increasingly
sophisticated cyber attacks," said Adam
Miller, Advanced Programs Director at Lockheed Martin. "With
Intel's computing platform experience, this partnership extends to
ORock Technologies' secure cloud platform for organizations to
accelerate their operations and expand rapidly without sacrificing
Quality of Service."
"We are delighted about the Hardened Security solution and the
manner in which it protects, increases performance, and provides
the predictability that public and private sector organizations
require for their mission-critical workloads," said Gregory Hrncir, Co-Founder, CEO and President,
ORock Technologies. "ORockCloud with Hardened Security is a unique
cloud computing offering that balances high-performance computing
with next-gen software and hardware focused on high performance,
security and scale. With increased processing power across an
integrated IT estate, organizations can now realize a bare metal
experience in a virtualized environment and achieve real-time
performance for mission critical and no fail workloads that demand
it."
"We are in a new era of cloud computing which requires
disruptive technology to power high performance computing workloads
while keeping them secure to the silicon root level against
sophisticated attacks," said Jeremy
Rader, General Manager of Enterprise Strategy &
Solutions, Data Platforms Group at Intel. "Collaborating with
Lockheed Martin and ORock Technologies, an Intel Select Solutions
provider, to develop a compelling solution that offers tremendous
benefits around security, predictability and cloud computing will
help customers protect their most critical workloads."
