InterCOM DDS
Delivers the power, speed, and reliability required to succeed in today’s data‑driven, mission‑critical environments.
Built on the open‑standard Data Distribution Service (DDS) protocol, it enables seamless, secure, real‑time communication across complex systems, sensors, platforms, and networks.
Designed for high‑performance distributed architectures, InterCOM DDS reduces integration time, accelerates development, and ensures that the right data reaches the right place at the right moment—every time. Its proven interoperability makes it the ideal choice for heterogeneous, multi‑domain systems used in defence, security, and other demanding operational environments.
As a contributing member of the Object Management Group (OMG), Kongsberg Defence & Aerospace ensures InterCOM DDS aligns with global standards, industry best practices, and the evolving needs of modern mission systems.
Why InterCOM DDS?
InterCOM DDS enables customers to build smarter, safer, and more connected systems by providing:
High‑Performance, Real‑Time Data Distribution
Deliver fast, reliable, and predictable data flows—even in bandwidth‑constrained or contested environments.
Effortless Integration Across Platforms
Reduce development complexity and cost with streamlined data sharing across networks, languages, and operating systems.
Built‑In Flexibility to Match Any Mission
Shape system behaviour through an extensive Quality of Service (QoS) model, letting you optimise performance, latency, reliability, and resource usage.
Interoperability You Can Trust
Fully compliant with OMG DDS standards, InterCOM DDS ensures smooth integration with other DDS‑based systems—critical in multi‑vendor, multi‑system deployments.
