UDS Bundles

A UDS Bundle is a collection of UDS Packages designed to facilitate the delivery of software solutions for specific missions or software delivery processes. With UDS Bundles, teams can efficiently adapt to the unique requirements of each mission without sacrificing the reliability and security of the software delivery process.

UDS Bundles enable:

  • A structured and repeatable approach for delivering software solutions tailored to diverse mission needs. Each bundle serves as a collection of capabilities, facilitating the delivery of software solutions for specific mission objectives.
  • Efficient adaptability to the unique requirements of each mission without compromising the reliability and security of the software delivery process.
  • Secure and consistent software delivery by bundling tools and configurations required for specific mission capabilities, ensuring a standardized and reusable approach.

Benefits of UDS Bundles

Consistency: UDS Bundles provide a standardized approach to software delivery, ensuring consistency across different missions and environments.

Reusability: The modular nature of UDS Bundles allows for the reuse of capabilities, saving time and effort in software delivery.

Security and Compliance: By incorporating controls and documented configurations, UDS Bundles promote secure and compliant software deployments.

Scalability: UDS Bundles can be adapted and extended to accommodate different mission requirements and environments.

Key Features

Modularity and Reusability

UDS Bundles are designed to be modular and reusable, allowing teams to combine different bundles as needed to meet the specific requirements of their missions or projects. By leveraging pre-defined capabilities and tools, UDS Bundles provide a standardized and consistent approach to software delivery.

Composition of UDS Bundles

Each UDS Bundle is composed of a set of capabilities, where each capability is achieved by selecting specific tools or functional components to perform the required functions. This composition ensures that essential functionalities and configurations are encapsulated within the bundle, making it easier to deploy and operate the software solutions.

UDS Core Bundle

The UDS Core Bundle holds a significant role within the UDS architecture. It serves as the foundational bundle that must be delivered before deploying any other optional bundles or mission capabilities. The UDS Core Bundle establishes the basic architecture and secure runtime environment needed for successful software delivery using UDS.

Versatility of UDS Bundles

UDS Bundles are versatile and can be shared and deployed across different environments, enabling consistent and reliable results in various scenarios. This adaptability makes UDS Bundles suitable for diverse mission needs and environments.

Security and Compliance

UDS Bundles incorporate OSCAL (Open Security Controls Assessment Language) validation capabilities to ensure compliance with security standards during the deployment process. OSCAL validation scans the configuration settings, access controls, and network policies of the cloud environment to identify any deviations from the expected security baselines. Any non-compliant configurations are flagged, allowing users to promptly address and remediate potential security risks. Each UDS Bundle comes with a comprehensive document outlining all the controls available for applications running within the bundle. These controls encompass a range of functionalities, including security measures and configuration requirements. The documentation ensures the proper configuration of applications and facilitates the inheritance of controls within the UDS Bundle.
