The National Weather Service (NWS), part of NOAA, is transforming how it delivers weather, water, and climate services to the nation. Peraton is helping lead this effort by modernizing NWS’s operational systems—migrating the Advanced Weather Interactive Processing System (AWIPS) and related tools to a secure, scalable cloud environment within the NWS Enterprise Cloud (NEC).
This modernization ensures faster data access, greater reliability, and enhanced collaboration—supporting NWS’s mission to protect life and property and strengthen the nation’s resilience to weather and climate hazards.
The NWS Data and Application Environment (DAE) initiative delivers a next-generation cloud-based ecosystem for ingesting, processing, analyzing, and disseminating weather and water data. Through the integration of modern DevSecOps practices, advanced analytics, and continuous integration/deployment pipelines, Peraton and NOAA are enabling an agile, risk-based decision support framework that connects forecasters, emergency managers, and partners nationwide.
The DAE program replaces the legacy AWIPS on-premises system, consolidating mission-critical functions into a unified cloud platform that supports continuous forecasting, 24/7 operations, and rapid technology insertion.
