Key Points: 
  • General Micro Systems (GMS) announces the worlds only dual Xeon, OpenVPX modular 19 rack mount server developed in alignment with the emerging Sensor Open Systems Architecture (SOSA) Technical Standard.
  • The companys second-generation Intel Xeon E5 v4 dual CPU OpenVPX server, Apex, marries GMS high-performance, 100 percent LRU-replaceable modularity with OpenVPX profiles intended to conform with the SOSA Technical Standard release expected in late 2020.
  • For certain systems, SOSA allows the DoD to control its own destiny through technology refresh and interoperable, multi-vendor products.
  • Aligning Apex OpenVPX modules with SOSA is a straightforward taskproving the original value proposition of GMSs modular server design.
