BDP Orchestration Capabilities RFI

Unified Platform is currently leveraging Rapid Analytic Deployment and Management Framework (RADMF) for UP Big Data Platform (BDP) orchestration on AWS GovCloud. We are looking for potential RADMF alternatives, so we are conducting market research to evaluate products and solutions that can provide the capabilities to meet the objectives and requirements listed in paragraph 4. The organizational objectives of this research are as follows:

a) Identify and catalog available products and solutions in the market.

b) Evaluate the features, functionality, and pricing of each alternative to determine its suitability for our needs.

c) Assess the level of integration and compatibility of each alternative with our DevSecOps platform, while ensuring compliance with DoD security requirements.

d) Estimate the level of government resources required to migrate to a new solution, while maintaining our current operational capabilities. 4) The following are some objectives potential solution must help UP achieve:

a. Cloud Provisioning – automated provisioning of a cloud-based multi-node platform capable of deploying clusters of over 15 petabytes in size.

b. BDP automated deployment – Rapidly and automated provisioning of Big Data Platform Clusters through Continuous Integration/ Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) orchestrated 2 pipelines.

c. Achieve desired levels of elasticity and scalability of cloud-based big data platform to accelerate the ingest normalization, and indexing of both unstructured and structured data.

d. Data Aggregation and Processing – Confidently store, analyze, and query structured and unstructured data while ensuring data is secure, private, tracked, accurate, and usable.

e. Network Data Management - processing engine to handle network packets (PCAP) for observability and threat hunting. Please see attachment for more information.
