Mirantis Public Sector Private Cloud Use Cases
Mirantis’ customers leverage our solutions to realize advanced application capabilities along with increased security, regulatory compliance, and infrastructure flexibility, while decreasing time required to transition to containerized applications and secure, scalable infrastructures.
Deliver highly-secure, compliant, and performant Gov Cloud, and High Side cloud-native applications on secure, efficient substrates with varying complexity.
Build and operationalize general-purpose clouds - delivering virtual machines, network and storage services, development/testing/production environments, container orchestration (container engines, Kubernetes, Swarm), and/or special-purpose clusters (e.g., GPU farms for AI) on demand
Create and manage special-purpose clouds - providing dynamic resources for hosting and scaling mission-critical High Side applications (including network security and AI) with unique environment and performance requirements.
Engineer advanced telecommunications network and satellite services - leveraging technologies like Network Functions Virtualization to emulate network and communications components in software on generic hardware, speeding delivery of software-defined services while simplifying infrastructure and platform logistics, and controlling costs.
Rapidly modernize legacy applications into cloud-native forms that run efficiently and are easy and safe to maintain and improve
Mirantis products and services have been applied to a wide range of situations to accelerate accomplishing and exceeding Mission Objectives. A few examples:
Faster Authorization To Operate (ATO)
Deployed on FedRamp-approved cloud providers and Data Center physical infrastructures, Mirantis CAAS-G enables rapid provisioning of secure, consistent environments whose states are fully known, and that do not drift over time (e.g., CAAS-G centralizes, automates, and locks down cluster configuration and updates). Such environments can be readily approved for use and then duplicated at different scales, enabling fast, reliable delivery of logically-identical container orchestration environments as mission requirements dictate. New Mission Infrastructure design and deployments are based on an already approved STIG and related PEN tested stack, greatly accelerating security testing. The result is faster ATOs, through:
Faster deployments of already ATO’ed infrastructures for new Missions and Program Environments.
Efficient use of infrastructure resources – scale platforms to the Mission in known-approved configurations

Orchestration flexibility - use Kubernetes or Swarm orchestration as Mission requirements dictate
Consistent, fully-STIG documented and PEN tested orchestration platforms speed containerized application development and enable workflow automation
Stay in Compliance and Provide Mission Critical Services
Mirantis platform-independent, lightweight containerization and orchestration tools like Mirantis Container Runtime, Mirantis Kubernetes Engine, k0s, and k0rdent with FIPS 140-3 validated encryption have smaller attack surfaces than other vendors’ tool sets. This improves security and time to ATO.

Reducing Costs of Network and Telecommunications Systems
Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) and Container Network Functions (CNF) are emerging standard technologies for duplicating multi-service network functions as isolated, composable software components (e.g., SIP-based telephony switching, video and audio streaming, stateful inspection, packet routing, 5G mobile base station management, etc.).
Mirantis customers use these technologies in combination with Mirantis Application Containerization and Orchestration solutions to gain unparalleled flexibility and speed in service provisioning and delivery on generic compute hardware. This eliminates the need for purpose-dedicated, expensive telecom and networking gear, resulting in better adaptability to changing situations, improved system performance, and reduced hardware cost. Our technologies also reduce logistics complexity for field deployments by allowing a limited range of basic hardware types to support an unlimited range of network, telecom, mobile, and application hosting requirements.
Facing Real Time Edge Data Feeds
Agencies that are Edge-heavy data producers must often manage thousands of real time edge data feeds – including feeds from video, audio, substance, and activity sensors. This data collection, threat evaluation, and alert generation needs to occur in real time. For this reason, many agencies with law enforcement, security, or surveillance functions use Mirantis Containerization and Orchestration alongside Mirantis Infrastructure Management (IaaS) to provide centrally-administered, consistent platforms for distributed data aggregation, storage, evaluation, and escalation. Using these tools frees up staff to focus on their mission: keeping citizens and facilities safe.
