Operate critical infrastructure from cloud to the field

Cloud-to-edge orchestration and automation for public sector and defence: Deploy, operate and monitor services across administrations, critical facilities, field units and remote sites, even when connectivity is degraded.

The Challenge

Public sector and defence organisations are struggling to run critical services across every site

✕

Fragmented environments

Legacy platforms, multiple vendors and diverse networks, each managed through separate tools.

↳Operational silos
↳Slow service delivery
✕

Unreliable connectivity

Field units and remote sites must keep operating when networks are degraded or unavailable.

↳Service continuity at risk
↳Dependence on public networks
✕

Security and sovereignty

Mission systems must stay patched, governed and under your control across every location.

↳Inconsistent posture
↳Sovereignty requirements

NearbyOne for Public Sector & Defence

One platform to operate public services and mission capabilities from cloud to edge

NearbyOne brings networks, infrastructure, applications and observability into a single orchestration and automation layer for public sector and defence environments.

Repeatable services

Today, every new facility is its own integration project. NearbyOne turns a capability into a catalogue item, whether a private 5G network, a video surveillance and analytics stack or a command-post application set, deployed to any site with the same configuration and policies applied automatically. Standing up the fiftieth site takes the effort of the second.

Resilient by design

Remote sites run their workloads locally, with no live connection to the centre. NearbyOne holds the intended state and each site converges to it when the link returns: a change issued while a site was dark is applied on reconnection. The centre always knows which sites are current and which are behind. Disconnection becomes a known state, not a blind spot.

Sovereign by design

NearbyOne runs where you require it: public cloud, private cloud, on-premise or fully disconnected, including the control plane itself. It keeps every site patched and reports known vulnerabilities across the estate, and deploys and maintains the security tooling you have already standardised on.

Use cases

Public sector and defence capabilities enabled by NearbyOne

Deployed and operated across every site and unit from one control plane.

Tactical 5G for emergencies and deployed operations

Deploy portable private 5G around an emergency area, unit or command post, with satellite backhaul where networks are unavailable.

✓Rapid coverage where public networks fail or saturate

✓Local operational autonomy when links go down

Mission-critical communications

Operate MCPTT and MCX services over private or tactical 5G for police, fire, medical and defence teams, with high availability.

✓Guaranteed availability for critical operations

✓Faster incident response and field coordination

Mission-defined deployments

Define the service set a mission needs and deploy it as one package to every site and unit involved. Stood up in hours, torn down cleanly when the mission ends.

✓One package per mission, not one project per site

✓The same model for defence and civil protection

Edge AI for situational awareness and public safety

Deploy AI models to edge nodes: video analytics, sensor fusion and drone data processed locally, governed from the centre.

✓Real-time awareness without backhaul dependency

✓Local decision support under central control

Public infrastructure at scale

Operate distributed public infrastructure, from urban cabinets to transport fleets, with zero-touch provisioning and automated patching.

✓Thousands of sites operated by a small team

✓Consistent, secure configuration everywhere

Resilient operations at every site

Maintain continuity through consistent patching, vulnerability detection, configuration control and automated recovery at every site.

✓Consistent security posture across every site

✓Reduced operational burden on field teams
