Data Fusion Plane architecture incorporates AI applications and digital twins
UltiSim Inc., an enterprise AI infrastructure and digital twin company, has introduced UltiSim Data Fusion Plane, an artificial intelligence infrastructure for midmarket and government customers. The platform is based on the principles of data sovereignty, allowing midsize businesses to fully operationalize AI without relinquishing control of their data or being tied to a technology or cloud vendor.
In an era of rapidly expanding AI capabilities, maintaining control over organizational data has become essential for businesses, governments, defense, and healthcare organizations of all sizes. According to McKinsey, sovereign AI is one of the biggest technology needs for businesses and governments, and estimates that by 2030, 30-40% of AI spending could be affected by sovereignty requirements.1 Despite widespread concerns about data governance and security in the AI era, organizations lack the option to keep their data fully under control, even when using secure cloud-based infrastructure.

UltiSim Data Fusion Plane solves this challenge by enabling midsize businesses to connect, transform, and access disparate and siled data across the enterprise for AI applications without the data ever leaving the firewall.
“When an organization has complex systems to begin with, and you add AI to it, it becomes very difficult to understand everything that is going on with the data,” said Richard Boyd, CEO and co-founder of UltiSim. “We bring that understanding and give them transparency, sovereignty, and the ability to make the most of AI. UltiSim’s Data Fusion Plane is the result of eight years of experience implementing AI while maintaining data control, transparency, and security.”
UltiSim Data Fusion Plane Features
Data Fusion Plane is a sovereign AI operating system that extends an organization’s AI capabilities by securely connecting directly to existing files and systems. The platform is designed on the principles of composite AI, bringing together the full range of generative (reasoning and language) and symbolic (rules) AI, along with RAG (search augmented generation). This allows you to:
- Data sovereignty: Data remains under the control of the organization and is governed by its rules.
- You don’t need a data lake: leave your data where it is. Data Fusion Plane integrates data based on permissions and prepares data for secure AI processing.
- Avoid vendor lock-in: Enterprise and government customers can build portable, future-proof infrastructure that is independent of hyperscalers and cloud platforms.
- Accelerate security compliance: Built-in transparency and compliance tools help organizations achieve SOC-2, FIPS 140-3, and other security standards in a fraction of the time it would normally take.
- Knowledge retention: Organizational memory is captured and protected.
The Data Fusion Plane operating system employs neural knowledge graphs to map real-world relationships between data points. It also includes an advanced RAG engine with vector mapping for accurate context across heterogeneous data. The platform is based on the foundation of AI, machine learning, simulation and modeling, and digital twin technologies that Boyd’s UltiSim and its predecessor companies have developed over the past 20 years.
The extensible platforms available today enable all kinds of AI applications, agents, and digital twins. UltiSim hands “digital keys” to customer engineering teams and provides training on the company’s open APIs, allowing them to autonomously manage, maintain, and extend their digital twins. Deployment can be completed in as little as 90 days.
customer perspective
“UltiSim Data Fusion Plane is extremely powerful,” said Vir Thanvi, vice president at ERT, a solutions company that supports government customers across space, defense, and national security from orbit to outcome. “Having a complete, common operational picture of everything involved in sensor collection and data generation is extremely valuable.”
