Ozon added that all systems that are responsible for the work of warehouses, sellers, partners and customer service are the development of the company, so they function without failures. "Ozon uses Microsoft office products only under license - the software was purchased through an official partner of the company," the company said.

Rostec at CIPR-2023: new IT solutions and strengthening the country's digital sovereignty​

For the first time at CIPR, we are demonstrating the Iridium secure virtualization platform, independent of any foreign software. Our solution allows us to effectively solve the problems of import substitution and carry out simple and fast migration from foreign analogues. A unique orchestration system coordinates and manages IT systems and services automatically. Due to its structure, it allows you to immediately start operating the system, without investing in staff training.

Frankly speaking, today all over the world you will hardly find more than 7-8 development teams capable of creating their own virtualization solution, independent of the major market players. And we are proud that one of these teams is Russian and works within the framework of the state corporation Rostec

Rostec faces tasks, including in the field of civil aircraft manufacturing. From the operator's point of view, not only the supply of new aircraft plays an important role, but also the organization of a convenient after-sales support system by the manufacturer. In Western countries, these processes have long been automated, but what about in Russia?
We pay great attention to the support of the operators of our products. For the first time at CIPR, Rostec is presenting a product for integrated automation of aircraft maintenance.

The customer must be provided with high-quality information services for each aircraft or product in a single window format. At the moment, such an information system is being implemented at the Irkut Corporation on the Superjet and MS-21 projects, individual system modules have been put into commercial operation, and the functionality and services provided are being actively expanded. We plan to complete the wide introduction of the system by the end of 2025.



Import substitution usually means the reproduction of existing foreign designs that, for one reason or another, have become unavailable on the market. Don't you think that with this approach we will forever be in the role of catching up?
We are talking not about import substitution, but about technological sovereignty. The purpose of this work is to create our own solutions, independent of foreign support, providing a high level of information security. Let me emphasize: the task is not set to repeat what was done by foreign developers. We are confident that it is in our power to create original solutions that can exceed foreign analogues in terms of functionality and quality. The country has the scientific and technical reserves necessary for this.

MOSCOW, May 27. /TASS/. Concern "Vega" (part of the holding "Ruselectronics" of the state corporation "Rostec") creates a new generation of radars for radar satellites "Condor". This was announced on Saturday by the general director of the concern Sergei Skorykh. "Now the enterprises of the concern are working on the creation of a new radar for the next generation of spacecraft of this type, in order to completely meet the needs of consumers of such information in the coming years," the press service quotes Skorykh as saying on Saturday. According to him, the concern has fulfilled its obligations to develop and manufacture payloads for all satellites of the future Condor-FKA orbital constellation. "The payload of the satellite is a synthetic aperture radar developed by the Vega concern, designed to obtain radar images of high and medium resolution," Ruselectronics said.

One of the reasons the Russian economy is doing so well is ironically because of Western sanctions. They got rid of the parasitic oligarchs, and all the money that's been going out came pouring in while blocking more money from going out, forcing the Russian elite to invest in Russia and not on an English soccer team or on megayachts.

Wind farm opened in Southern Russia by Rosatom. They mentioned 40% of energy mix in Russia is from low carbon resources. I presume its majority Hydro and Nuclear as Wind and Solar just started.

Kuzminskaya is our eighth wind farm in Southern Russia and the sixth in the Stavropol Krai. We did not suspend its construction despite the sanctions pressure. By now, it has fed the first 100 MW of electricity into the national power grid. We managed to rearrange our supply chains within a short time, having replaced the withdrawn technology with Russian know-how and supplied our production facilities with necessary parts and components. Kuzminskaya is our first wind farm fully built with the new supply chain strengthening technological sovereignty of the wind power sector,” NovaWind CEO Grigoriy Nazarov said.

For reference:

A source of electricity for industry and households, wind power paves the way for a progressive social and economic development of the country. Russia continues to upgrade its power generation facilities, including nuclear capacity, These efforts are fully in line with the current trends towards digitalization and import substitution. Low-carbon power sources already account for nearly 40% of the Russian energy mix. With the share of wind and nuclear power growing, low-carbon generation will only expand in the future.

Russian partners of Rosatom’s wind power projects increase the output of necessary systems and equipment to strengthen the country’s technological sovereignty. Rosatom Group companies are also involved in the production of domestic components, and one of them is Rosatom's Nuclear fuel division TVEL. The company will launch end-to-end production of rare-earth magnets by 2027. After the factory reaches full capacity in 2028, it will produce 1,000 tons of magnets annually with the possibility of increasing the output to over 3,000 tons after 2030. Rosatom has also announced its composite materials division will launch production of wind turbine blades.

Russian nuclear giant looks to replace Western medical devices​

Rosatom’s new subdivision will manufacture titanium implants for orthopedics

© atomic-energy.ru

Russian state-owned nuclear energy corporation Rosatom has launched a new manufacturing branch that will produce titanium alloy implants for traumatology and orthopedics, the company’s TVEL division announced on Tuesday.

TVEL incorporates a metallurgical subdivision, Rusatom Metalltech, which produces titanium, zirconium and other metals for high-technology products.

“We’ve established a new enterprise, LLC Rusatom Implantat, which will produce import-substituting titanium implants for osteosynthesis and intraosseous osteosynthesis,” the statement said. Intraosseous osteosynthesis is the surgical management of bone fractures by the insertion of a fixing device, usually a titanium implant, into the affected area.

The new company aims to produce at least 140,000 titanium implants annually and meet at least one third of the demand on the Russian market. Its products will include plates for osteosynthesis of bone fragments, intramedullary pins for the treatment of bone fractures and surgical tools for their installation, extraction and replacement.

“The launch of our own complete production cycle of implantable products – from raw materials to finished goods – is the largest investment project of Rusatom Metalltech for the development of the medical industry in Russia. Our plant’s capacity will meet at least 30% of the demand of the Russian healthcare market in high-quality medical implants for traumatology and orthopedics, and, in the future, it will completely replace imported medical products in this area,” Rusatom Metalltech CEO Andrey Andrianov said.

The company is finalizing the necessary registration procedures in order to supply its products to Russian medical institutions, and plans to launch its products on the domestic market in late 2024.

“We expect [Rusatom Implantat] products to replace Western analogues in reconstructive surgery, which will ease consumer access to Russian high-tech medical care and boost its independence from market conditions,” Vladislav Ovchinsky, the head of Moscow’s Investment and Industrial Policy Department, told reporters.

The factory will be located within the Technopolis Moscow special economic zone.
