iDirect Government has released a new virtualization tool called WCore that supports 16 waveforms and is designed so that waveforms can be rapidly deployed, scaled, and managed. 

WCore is a virtualized waveform core that is designed to integrate both iDirectGov-hosted and third-party applications. The company said it eliminates the need for waveforms to interface directly with specific hardware in a way that accelerates development, simplifies integration, and supports a vendor-agnostic approach to waveform deployment.

“By abstracting hardware complexity, accelerating third-party development and enabling rapid switching between waveforms, the WCore enhances both resiliency and operational agility. Its ability to unify multiple waveforms and platforms into a single, flexible framework designates it as a critical enabler for next-generation satcom environments,” commented Tim Winter, iDirectGov president. 

Announced Monday, the WCore powered 4-Series supports approximately 16 waveforms, including Evolution Defense, Viasat GX, SES Flex, DVB-S2X, sovereign and the enhanced bandwidth efficient modem (EBEM).
