The True Cost of Cloud AI: What Most Teams Don't Budget For

The allure of cloud-based AI tools is undeniable. They’re fast to set up, easy to access, and promise powerful capabilities without the need for infrastructure investments. But beneath the surface, many organizations—especially those in regulated or security-sensitive industries—are discovering that the real cost of cloud AI goes far beyond the monthly invoice.

If your team is evaluating how to scale AI internally, it’s critical to understand what you may be signing up for. Because while public AI tools offer convenience, they also come with hidden costs, hidden risks, and very real limitations—particularly when compliance, data control, and operational continuity are on the line.

The Science of Satellite Signal Acquisition: How ACUs Ensure Connections

Before your satellite antenna can track anything, it has to find and acquire the right signal—with factors like orbital drift, weather interference, and even minor miscalculations in positioning meaning the difference between a strong, stable connection and a frustrating search for a missing signal.

This is where Antenna Control Units (ACUs) do the heavy lifting. They don’t just move the antenna—they calculate look angles, scan for beacon signals, and refine positioning to lock onto the satellite with pinpoint accuracy. If your ACU is outdated or slow, that process can become a bottleneck, costing valuable time and signal reliability.

This article breaks down 4 ways ACUs acquire satellite signals, the challenges involved, and how modern upgrades can enhance accuracy, speed, and long-term performance.

Safer Schools Start with Clear Communication: Why Audio Logs Matter

Emergencies on school campuses unfold quickly, and when they do, communication isn’t just helpful—it’s vital. Whether it’s a burst pipe, a student health scare, or a campus lockdown, a school’s ability to relay clear, immediate information can determine how effectively it responds.
