Ironsled™

Commercial-speed deployment with federal security

LMI’s IronSled™ is a secure internal developer platform (IDP) purpose-built for delivering applications to government environments. Designed to meet stringent federal security requirements, IronSled™ enables rapid development, testing, and deployment of applications in cloud or on-prem environments. By provisioning infrastructure directly within authorized government networks, IronSled™ streamlines the development and deployment process, accelerating timelines and reducing complexity. Whether hosting applications, standing up a secure delivery environment, or onboarding multiple vendors for integrated testing and evaluation, IronSled™ helps federal agencies move with the speed and agility of the commercial sector — without compromising compliance or control.
