About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Progress Federal Solutions Delivers Trusted AI-Powered Innovation for the U.S. Government, Defense and Public Sector

Wholly owned subsidiary of Progress Software combines federal expertise with advanced AI technologies to accelerate digital transformation and mission success

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Progress Software (Nasdaq: PRGS), the trusted provider of AI-powered digital experience and infrastructure software, today announced the launch of Progress Federal Solutions, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary established to serve the specialized needs of U.S. federal, defense and public sector organizations.

Unveiled at the Progress Data Platform Summit, held this week at the International Spy Museum in Washington, D.C., Progress Federal Solutions operates independently while leveraging the full strength of Progress Software’s technology portfolio. The subsidiary is designed to help government agencies accelerate digital transformation, meet compliance mandates and unlock the full potential of their AI and data initiatives to drive smarter, faster and more secure outcomes.

“While compliance is non-negotiable, agencies today are actively seeking agile, innovative solutions that deliver measurable outcomes,” said Cori Moore, President of Progress Federal Solutions. “Federal and defense agencies are embracing data-centric strategies and modernizing legacy systems at a faster pace than ever. That’s why we focus on enabling data-driven decision-making, faster time to value and measurable ROI. At Progress Federal Solutions, we don’t sell technology—we solve problems. We comprehend the nuances of federal acquisition, understand each agency’s mandate and speak the language of mission impact.”

A Proven Track Record of Innovation
Progress Federal Solutions builds on the foundation of MarkLogic, acquired by Progress Software in 2023. With a long-standing reputation in data management and integration, the team specializes in helping agencies unlock the value of complex, diverse data through AI, semantic technologies and secure infrastructure.

“Progress is a trusted provider of AI-enabled solutions that address complex data, infrastructure and digital experience needs,” said Michael Shrader, Vice President of Intelligence and Innovative Solutions at Carahsoft. “Their technologies empower government agencies to build high-impact applications, automate operations and scale securely to meet program goals. Carahsoft and our reseller partners recognize the importance of supporting initiatives that will comprehensively meet the unique and changing needs of our public sector customers.”

AI-Powered Solutions for Government Mandates
AI—particularly generative AI and machine learning—is a priority for government agencies due to its ability to interpret data and enable smarter operations by leveraging large language models (LLMs) in critical applications and systems. Merging generative AI with semantic technologies and knowledge graphs can deliver even greater value to digital ecosystems by applying human insight and context to data at a machine scale.

Progress Federal Solutions offers the Progress® Data Platform, an end-to-end, AI-powered solution designed to help organizations connect, curate and consume data across complex environments.

Key capabilities include:

  • Automated Semantics for Progressive AI: Combines graph and vector technologies to enable real-time semantic search and contextual understanding.
  • Progressive Graphs: Build knowledge models to identify gaps and drive mission-critical insights.
  • Progressive Vectors: Vectorize content on demand, reducing costs and improving flexibility across embedding models.

These innovations support responsible and effective implementation of federal AI mandates, helping agencies make smarter decisions, faster.

In addition to the Progress Data Platform, Progress Federal Solutions offers U.S. federal government and public sector customers all products within its portfolio and has achieved success in providing:

  • Progress® Sitefinity®: a cloud-first digital experience platform with intuitive GenAI-powered tools for content management, personalization and journey optimization.
  • Progress® Chef®: automation software for configuring, deploying and managing IT infrastructure and workload orchestration in a secure and compliant way.
  • Progress® LoadMaster®: high-performance application delivery controller (ADC) and load balancer, offered as virtual, hardware or cloud-native to provide availability, scalability and security for business-critical applications.
  • Progress® MOVEit®: managed file transfer and automation software that helps customers secure sensitive files at rest and in transit, supporting compliance with data security requirements.
