Igniting Innovation: How Cloud is Improving the Business of Government

Cloud services are playing a major role in government – helping accelerate innovation, providing a path to enterprise services, and increasing efficiencies. Since the U.S. Administration's "Cloud First" mandate of 2010, Federal agencies have sought IT-as-a-Service solutions that can help manage new and existing IT infrastructure and achieve the full benefits and promise of cloud. Hybrid cloud solutions are allowing agencies meet the challenges of transitioning their infrastructure to the cloud and still meet the rigorous agility, scale, security and compliance needs of mission-critical applications.

Join us to discuss:

• The key requirements of a hybrid cloud; scalability, extensibility, highly automated, tiered services and security
• Leveraging the “third platform” that encompasses hybrid cloud, social media, mobility and big data on the journey to redefine IT in government
• Use cases for cloud inter-operability and the attributes of cloud hosted services such as IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS
• Provisioning IT resources developed inside and outside of your organization while reducing spend, maximizing security and positioning agencies to better use hybrid cloud services
