The core exists in fiber-optic connectivity, which allows opera tions in the continental United States as well as at specific fixed regional sites such as military bases. The ability to reach naval forces responding to global conflicts requires communications capabilities beyond core networks, and for this the naval forces rely extensively on satellite communications (SATCOM)

Some weapons and combat systems may have latency and data-processing volume requirements that necessitate tightly coupled, real-time, distributed applications and computing components, features that can be difficult to implement based on SOA design principles. However, the potential rigor of SOA configuration control can be useful in such conditions to ensure information availability and integrity; also, the capability of processing is increasing quickly enough that the inefficien cies of SOA could be overcome.

From an IA perspective, the enterprise architecture must enable naval forces to keep pace with new trends in Department of Defense (DOD) computing, such as the movement toward Web services, and incorporate information assurance mechanisms that deal with threats related to these trends.
