Leveraging the Data Cloud for Government to Break Down Data Silos

Isolated, siloed data makes harnessing the value of data time-consuming and expensive.
Governance and collaboration can be impossible to achieve across multiple technologies and
clouds. Attend this session to see how the Snowflake Data Cloud for government eliminates
siloes and facilitates secure, governed data sharing and collaboration, regardless of an
organization’s cloud provider.

Modernization Tools and Tactics

It seems more than a few organizations are lamenting having postponed their modernization initiatives. The shutdown(s) exposed some serious shortcomings in legacy systems, networks, processes, and business critical applications. Whether it be due to skyrocketing demand for online services, or the uphill climb to circumvent the need for on-site personnel. Now is a good time to take stock and consider solutions that do not require radical remedies. Our presentation will cover how to get dynamic, cloud ready, and agile today!

Getting Cloud Smart with Mainframe Applications

In a government IT environment where starting a modernization project with the wrong approach leads to tens of millions of dollars in excessive spending, the digital transformation of core business logic requires care and pragmatism.  Fortunately, there is a best practice approach for mainframe application modernization projects, known as the Micro Focus® Modernization Maturity Model.  This maturity model has been refined over the course of more than 1,000 successful modernization projects, offering a practical and proven framework for business critical change and Cloud Smart migration initiatives.  When planning and executing core business logic modernization programs, choose an approach you can believe in with a uniquely holistic range of technology, delivering the rapid, low-risk and smart IT evolution to cloud you’ve been looking for.

Exploring Cloud in the Time of Covid-19

This year has proven the need to strengthen Cloud capabilities, and a need to solve the Cloud challenges brought forth due to the pandemic. This panel will explore the current state of technology, use cases, and limitations of Cloud, in the Federal Government space. Listen in as subject matter experts share lessons learned and solutions to the challenges brought on to their agency’s as a result of COVID-19. What strategies have been put in place in order to strengthen Cloud as the Federal Government is starting to embrace  a “new normal”?  Find out how these topic experts have pushed through the challenges brought forth through COVID-19.

Tech Talk

Accelerate Migration to the Cloud Using Data Virtualization

Federal agencies are adopting cloud at a fast pace. Migration of critical enterprise information resources can be challenging when dealing with complex mission systems and data architectures. Building the right data services architecture using a Logical Data Fabric approach recommended by Gartner and Forrester can reduce agency risk and minimize impact to users, enabling agencies to gain maximum benefit from cloud initiatives in the form of agility, cost savings, and more.

In this TechTalk, you’ll learn:

• How data virtualization’s multi-location architecture can simplify and accelerate cloud migration.
• How to leverage Denodo’s virtual data services layer to address and augment cloud solutions such as data warehouse modernization, data science, and data lakes in the cloud.

The Constituent Experience, are you ready for it to be 100% digital?

2020 taught us how crucial digital government is to constituents. Now that we’re heading into 2021 and beyond, are you ready for the expectation that government needs to be fully digital?

Strengthening The Future of Cloud Through Emerging Technology

Listen as Cloud Experts explain the importance of Cloud across the Federal Government. In this period of time of building the “new normal”, What emerging technology has led to strengthening Cloud?  This panel will set out to explain the emerging technology that has been used to help strengthen federal Cloud, along with the future of Cloud in the Federal Government. What does it mean to strengthen your agency’s Cloud? Where do these Federal Leaders see the future of Cloud going, and what emerging technology will help it get there? Here topic experts will discuss the best practices to implement to strengthen federal Cloud, some lessons learned, as well as some challenges from along the way.
