Grist Mill Edge

Resilient Edge Data for Mission Readiness

Grist Mill Edge is a new edge data service, built to ensure mission teams have the same reliable, actionable information at the edge as they do in the cloud. By combining Grist Mill Exchange’s extensive selection of commercial data, STINGR’s data synchronization capabilities, and Ditto’s advanced mesh networking, Grist Mill Edge strengthens decision making in contested and disconnected environments.

Federal missions demand resilience where bandwidth is limited and trust gaps are costly. Grist Mill Edge delivers a complete edge computing capability, ensuring data remains synchronized, identities remain verified, and operations remain connected. Unlike traditional edge systems limited by fragile connectivity, Grist Mill Edge seamlessly integrates technologies for data acquisition,  data continuity, defensible identity resolution, and resilient communication. These capabilities are enhanced through mission-specific integrations with ATAK, Anduril Lattice, and Nifi data flows. Whether supporting deployed military units, intelligence teams, or joint operations centers, Grist Mill Edge empowers agencies with secure, compliant, and continuous access to the information needed to act decisively.

Use Cases

  • 01
    Disconnected Operations

    Challenge: Field units lose connectivity in austere or contested environments.

    Risk: Outdated data leads to blind spots, delayed responses, and increased mission risk.

    Resolution: Grist Mill Edge gives units access to the most timely, relevant data and maintains synchronization of critical tracks and records at the edge, ensuring continuity even when cloud links fail.

    Outcome: Teams operate with confidence, maintaining situational awareness and operational readiness.

  • 02
    Joint and Coalition Mission Integration

    Challenge: Diverse systems and devices often cannot interoperate in the field.

    Risk: Data silos undermine joint planning and reduce mission effectiveness.

    Resolution: Grist Mill Edge unifies data across Stingr, ATAK, Anduril, and mesh networks.

    Outcome: Secure, real-time collaboration across agencies and partners, improving coalition effectiveness.

  • 03
    Insider Threat and Identity Assurance

    Challenge: Identifying and validating individuals in joint or coalition environments is complex.

    Risk: Misidentification or gaps in identity data create security vulnerabilities.

    Resolution: Through Resolvr integration, Grist Mill Edge provides trusted, canonical identity records at the edge.

    Outcome: Strengthened insider threat programs and secure, defensible operations.
