<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Representatives from DSI Aerospace, a provider of high-performance electronics and mass storage systems for airborne and space applications, and Frontgrade Technologies, the leading provider of high-reliability, radiation-assured solutions for the defense, commercial, and civil industries, signed an agreement at Space Tech Expo to develop Frontgrade\u2019s SpaceStorTM 2TB Mass Memory Unit. After DSI completes the design of the MMU, Frontgrade will assemble and test at its Colorado, U.S. facility, and serve as the exclusive storefront for SpaceStor in North America. <\/p>\n
Under this newly signed agreement, Frontgrade will leverage its own 60-year space flight heritage with DSI\u2019s proven expertise in flash memory controller IP and full mass memory unit hardware. The SpaceStor MMU is being designed to meet the demanding requirements of today\u2019s Space environment and missions where reliable data storage is paramount. This rad-tolerant MMU offers a flexible, low-power, and cost-effective data storage solution for the harshest environments.<\/p>\n
David Meyouhas, Vice President of Product Management at Frontgrade<\/strong>, and Elias Hashem, Chief Executive Officer at DSI Aerospace<\/strong>, were joined at the signing ceremony by Bremen\u2019s Governor, Dr. Andreas Bovenschulte; Bremen\u2019s Senator for Economic Affairs, Ports and Transformation, Kristina Vogt; and Dr. Walther Pelzer, Director General of the German Space Agency at DLR.<\/p>\n \u201cBy bringing together Frontgrade\u2019s extensive subsystem and flash heritage with DSI\u2019s proven mass memory solutions, we will bring to our customers the next generation in high-performance Mass Memory Units needed to ultimately span the entire range of missions from LEO to GEO and beyond,\u201d Meyouhas said<\/strong>. \u201cWe look forward to disrupting the MMU market by introducing a low SWAP-C, 2-terabyte product to North America.\u201d<\/p>\n The SpaceStor MMU benefits from a combination of well-established software, firmware, and hardware elements carrying flight heritage into producing a powerful and scalable space-assured, mass memory solution.<\/p>\n Hashem added<\/strong>, \u201cWe are thrilled to enter into this agreement with such a well-established partner in the North American market. Together, we bring decades of expertise, combining our rich heritage of state-of-the-art solutions that will be incorporated into Frontgrade\u2019s SpaceStor engineered in Germany and made in the USA.\u201d <\/p>\n The SpaceStor MMU is provided in a 3U SpaceVPX form factor with a mezzanine that implements up to 2TB of EDAC-protected NAND storage and, as a result, can be easily and rapidly customized for mission-specific storage requirements. Frontgrade and DSI expect to begin shipping prototypes in late 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Representatives from DSI Aerospace, a provider of high-performance electronics and mass storage systems for airborne and space applications, and Frontgrade Technologies, the leading provider of high-reliability, radiation-assured solutions for the defense, commercial, and civil industries, signed an agreement at Space Tech Expo to develop Frontgrade\u2019s SpaceStorTM 2TB Mass Memory Unit.
