Mercury Introduces RES One, a Rugged Edge Server Engineered for Rapid Deployment and Superior Lifecycle Management

ANDOVER, Mass., Oct. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mercury Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: MRCY, www.mrcy.com), a global leader in aerospace and defense electronics, today introduced RES One™, its next-generation rugged edge server platform built with enhanced modularity to accelerate deployment, streamline technology insertion, and reduce sustainment costs over long-duration mission lifecycles.

RES One is purpose-built for demanding edge compute missions in harsh and remote environments, including maritime, airborne, and ground systems, as well as commercial and industrial edge applications. It addresses one of the most persistent challenges facing long-life military and industrial systems: the widening gap between rapid commercial technology evolution and multi-decade program lifecycles. Its modular, future-ready design significantly reduces costly redesign cycles traditionally required when upgrading edge compute hardware in systems that may be deployed for 20 years or more. RES One is also designed for expedited deployment, leveraging Mercury’s vertically integrated manufacturing and established supply chain, designed to achieve lead times significantly shorter than the industry’s typical 6-12 month delivery timelines for ruggedized edge compute platforms.

The initial RES One portfolio includes both 1U and 2U chassis featuring stable, long-term external interfaces and internal modularity built on open standards architectures, allowing customers to refresh CPUs, accelerators, storage, and security modules as technology advances. RES One also features Mercury’s RelianceOne™ edge security platform, purpose-built to meet defense and commercial cybersecurity and resiliency requirements across embedded, containerized, virtual, and standard user environments.

“RES One represents a fundamental shift in the deployment and lifecycle management of edge computing systems, with a simplified approach that gives program managers the ability to rapidly field and upgrade systems that leverage the most advanced commercial hardware, software, and security solutions,” said Ken Hermanny, Mercury’s Senior Vice President of Processing Technologies. “By combining open architectures with long-term form fit function stability, we are providing our customers a platform that can meet urgent delivery timelines and be relied upon for decades without lengthy redesign cycles that drain resources and threaten mission readiness.”

Mercury will debut the RES One server at the 2026 AUSA Annual Meeting and Exposition, booth 1445, from October 12-14, 2026.
