DESCRIPTION
The Army is seeking information on innovative commercial enterprise virtualization software solutions and associated services to support a more diverse virtualization portfolio. The effort is intended to increase competition, reduce total cost of ownership, and address the needs of a unique global computing environment.
The requested solution should support a multi-vendor approach that reduces vendor lock-in, enables modular consumption-based scaling, and allows existing workloads to be migrated with minimal operational disruption. The requirement also includes support for offline operations with encrypted background synchronization when network connectivity is restored.
The solution must be capable of supporting modernized, low-overhead edge compute nodes for tactical command-and-control environments operating over severely constrained, high-latency, or disconnected, intermittent, and limited networks. It should also provide high-availability, elastically scalable virtualization platforms for consolidating large server environments and supporting heavy core-count, monitoring, and analytical workloads at regional network hubs, along with secure virtual desktop capabilities for connected and disconnected access.
