Delivering Azure at the Tactical Edge

June 11, 2025 | 2:00 PM ET


This webinar is approved for 1 GIAC CPE and 1 CompTIA CEU for A+, DataSys+, Network+, Security+, Linux+ and Cloud+.

Attendance documentation for continuing education is provided for AFCEA members as an exclusive member benefit.

The U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) has made cloud computing a cornerstone of its digital modernization strategy, aiming to achieve information overmatch and support mission success across every domain. However, delivering cloud capabilities to the tactical edge—where connectivity is often Disconnected, Denied, Intermittent and Limited (DDIL)—requires more than simply extending traditional infrastructure. It demands innovative, resilient solutions that ensure critical applications and data remain accessible in austere and dynamic environments.

Join Dominic Perez, CTO of Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions and Derek Strausbaugh, Microsoft Federal CTO - DOD, as they explore how Azure can now be deployed effectively at the tactical edge. Learn how Curtiss-Wright and Microsoft are collaborating to overcome the technical and operational challenges of DDIL environments, enabling secure, scalable cloud services where they are needed most. Whether you’re a technology decision-maker, program manager or mission planner, this discussion will provide actionable insights into delivering mission-critical cloud capabilities—no matter how remote the environment.
