Devo builds real‑time data engine to protect US Air Force networks

Devo, founded by self‑taught chemist Pedro Castillo, has delivered a real‑time data engine for the US Air Force’s networks. The company’s HyperStream technology discards traditional indexing in favor of a schema‑on‑read model, allowing ingestion without normalization, micro‑indices and zero‑latency data availability [devto].

What shipped

HyperStream’s architecture enables the US Air Force to deploy Devo’s next‑generation SIEM under a $9.5 million contract, marking the first large‑scale use of the engine in a defense environment [GlobeNewsWire].

Why it matters

The engine processes massive data streams in real time, cutting detection and response cycles for security threats. Its design scales to the Air Force’s extensive network traffic, proving that a schema‑on‑read approach can replace legacy indexing without sacrificing performance. The contract demonstrates that innovative data‑processing architectures are viable for mission‑critical cyber‑defense.
