Getting Control of Your Data

Several factors are forcing government agencies to take a serious look at how they store and manage data today.

Today's challenges include:

  • Compliance -- figuring out when and how agencies will need to comply with regulations such as OMB Circular A-123 and FISMA -- and what the penalties are for non-compliance
  • Electonic Records Management -- how the Freedom of Information Act and the ever-compounding growth in e-mail affect the way agencies approach records management and archiving.
  • Growing Storage Needs -- the challenges associated with managing IT and the growth of electronic information by civilian and DOD agencies when funding and hardware are issues.

Start planning now. Come to this half-day seminar and learn what many agencies are doing by adopting methodologies and developing strategies that emulate proven solutions effective for the private sector along with solutions targeted towards the federal market needs.

This half-day seminar (that includes breakfast) will help your agency be more effective in managing your storage. Keynote speaker, Lars Linden, vice president of corporate strategy at GlassHouse Technologies, the leader in independent storage services and consulting, will provide a clear overview of the problems you face and will describe the options you have to proactively address these issues today.

Following the keynote, Dan Smith of GTSI, will lead a panel discussion that will share specifics on how several government IT organizations are addressing storage and data management.
