The newest military branch of the Department of Defense, the U.S. Space Force, has an operational cloud data environment. 

Friday, the United States Space Force revealed that its cloud-based data environment can now receive data straight from the Space Fence radar. The Space Force’s digital infrastructure relies heavily on the Unified Data Library. During the 30-day trial period, the service monitored the data flow. According to chief information officer Bruce Kimmich, the U.S. Space Force strives to link all of its sensors to the University of Defense Logistics Lab (UDL) “within the range of possibility.” 

According to him, the library’s cyber certification would provide it access to confidential and top-secret material from across the globe. Additionally, the service has initiated the building of an Allied Exchange Environment to link other nations for increased information exchange.
