Mission Assurance Corporation (MA Corp) provides a next-generation platform and management system for the development and deployment of enterprise applications and networks that never go down. By elegantly unbinding applications from static installation on host computers, MA’s Assurance Ecosystem (Æ) at last enables mission-critical applications to be made more reliable than the hardware on which they run or the building in which they reside. Resulting software developed for Æ has unheard-of advantages in:

• Efficiency: mission-critical applications can run on inexpensive hardware deployed as a distributed computing Grid
• Security: applications have no single point of attack for intrusion or denial-of-service
• Scalability: resource-intensive applications can be scaled to supercomputer levels using only commodity hardware
• Survivability: hardware failures do not bring applications down until all available hardware in every location fails. Applications are able to relocate from failing to healthy resources, reforming on-the-fly to continue processing.
