Solace is providing Enhanced SWIM Cloud Services
FAA headquarters sign
The FAA issued a pair of unexpected notams shutting down airspace in parts of the Southwest.

The FAA has extended a partnership with Solace as the agency modernizes its System Wide Information Management (SWIM) national data network. SWIM distributes real-time flight plans, surveillance data, weather information, and airspace notices to operators, the Department of Defense, air navigation service providers, and the flying public.

Solace, which has supported SWIM through its real-time data platform since 2011, is providing enhanced SWIM cloud services that improve bidirectional data flow and enable the agency’s data partners to publish data back into SWIM and participate in collaborative decision-making. Other enhancements include replacing Microsoft Word-file documentation with machine-readable APIs built on the AsyncAPI standard, making it easier for authorized users to access data streams.
