SteelCloud Inc. and GoAhead Software recently formed a strategic alliance.

SteelCloud offers standards-based, application-ready platforms for developing mission-critical applications for the U.S. Department of Defense or any environment that requires 99.999-percent availability. It specializes in network-centric and embedded computing solutions and will integrate GoAhead’s SelfReliant high-availability and management software with SteelCloud’s AdvancedTCA and MicroTCA server platforms.

“With 15,000 deployments worldwide, GoAhead SelfReliant will add proven high-availability capabilities to the SteelCloud platforms, giving customers the flexibility, cost and time efficiencies offered by standards in a fully integrated, validated platform,” says Jim Ewel, GoAhead CEO.

“The new SteelCloud high-availability systems will provide application development teams with an already integrated and tested platform,” says Clifton W. Sink, SteelCloud president and CEO. “This allows them to focus their efforts on software application development and functionality, which ultimately leads to their competitive differentiation.”
