As the government increasingly leverages the mass amounts of data it generates to power evidence-based decision- and policymaking, data is becoming an ever more essential strategic asset.
“Data is the new critical asset and oil of the federal government’s economy,” said Jim Cosby, NetApp CTO for U.S. Public Sector and Partners. “Federal agencies and our economy are becoming more data-driven every day, and use data to run our government, serve our country and to protect our citizens.”
To support a data-driven government, however, agencies need the right storage solutions to serve as a foundation for digital transformation. Properly managing and securing data is critical to modern governance and requires a unified storage solution that supports efficient data collection, accelerated workloads and streamlined cloud integration.
