Microsoft has unveiled a new cloud computing business in an effort to make Azure the space industry’s platform of choice. The company says it’s creating technologies to help the public and private sectors launch quicker and to make sure they achieve mission assurance.
The tech giant says satellite constellations “require precise planning and sophisticated AI-driven formation protocols” and that the emulator can help developers by generating scenarios in real-time using pre-collected satellite imagery. Companies and organizations can make use of it to train AI algorithms and make sure the satellite network they’re are working on will function just like they’re expecting it to before they launch a single satellite.
“Our approach helps to address some of the toughest technology challenges that our customers face in space: dealing with the vast amount of data generated from satellites, bringing cloud services and bandwidth to the most remote locations, and designing highly complex space systems. Coupled with our ecosystem of partners that can help bring this data to the ground faster, we’re making it easier to find insights and make connections that weren’t possible before.
We are ready to support customers on their space missions off and on the planet, and to use the power of cloud and space technology to help business across industries re-imagine solutions to some of the world’s most challenging problems.”
In addition, Microsoft is working together with space companies under the initiative to provide service to the industry here on Earth. Microsoft concluded its announcement with an assurance to help customers in the space industry with projects off and on the planet.
