Marklogic Data Integration Summit 2017

Washington, D.C.
#MarkLogicSummit

The era of big data is here. And with it, agencies have the opportunity to make faster, better decisions to improve mission performance.

But there’s a problem. The volume of data is overwhelming and traditional databases and methodologies aren’t up to the task to manage, analyze and share more disparate data sets quickly and securely while accelerating agencies’ mission. The good news, however, is that every agency and organization is facing the same challenge, and some have already solved it.

At this year’s MarkLogic Data Integration Summit, you’ll hear from government and industry peers on how they’ve tackled challenges with agility, data integration, and data culture, and how they are now extracting the insights needed from their data to improve services and increase efficiency. You’ll learn that there is a proven path to success – by integrating your data silos, you can change the way you integrate, store, manage, and search large volumes of disparate data types.

Your agency cannot afford to miss the opportunity of big data. At this year’s Summit, you will learn how to achieve it through:

Understanding the different ways to bring together your agency’s data and maximize interpretation and solutions
Learning how to drive data strategy and culture
Organizing your geospatial data into powerful insights
Networking with agency peers
Sharing on our interactive boards and more...

Join us on June 20 to find out how to use all of your data, for real results.

10:50 AM - 11:10 AM	Networking Break
11:10 AM - 11:50 AM	Breakout Sessions
	Data Mastering Won Integrating data from multiple sources yields tremendous insight, yet reconciling and harmonizing these multiple sources is a complex data integration challenge. One typically needs to align different data structures, standardize formatting, de-duplicate records, and clean up dirty data. Existing technologies and methods for data integration are beginning to break down in the face of demands for faster and more flexible systems development. Tim will discuss the mechanics and the benefits of moving to a new set of data integration technologies and methods that enable cheaper agile development. Dr. Tim Quinn, Ph.D., Chief Data Architect, TurningPoint Global Solutions
	Commanding and Controlling Defense Data Military and defense leaders are in charge of large amounts of sensitive data. Securing, managing, and uncovering intelligence from staggering volumes of information is crucial for the success and safety of their missions. In this session, ISR and C2 experts will discuss how they are integrating their data to improve information sharing to defend and protect. Neil Wiley, Director, Intelligence Analysis Division, Defense Intelligence Agency Colonel Drew Cukor, Chief, Algorithmic Warfare Cross Function Team, Office of the Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence Moderated by: Brian Ippolito, Orbis Technologies
	Managing Your Cloud and Security Risk Lowering the security risk of managing large volumes of data is a key concern for leaders across government and industry. Over the last decade, organizations across the globe have re-assessed or transformed how they handle threats to their information. Managing and protecting your data is key for mission success. In this breakout session, defense and civilian professionals will provide insight into how they’re securing data and mitigating threats. Edward Rhyne, Program Manager, Cyber Security Division, Homeland Security Advanced Research Projects Agency, Department of Homeland Security Science & Technology Steve Dennis, Science & Technology Directorate, Department of Homeland Security Dr. Ray Letteer, Chief, Cybersecurity Division, U.S. Marine Corps Moderated by: Joe Pasqua, EVP, Product Development, MarkLogic
12:00 PM - 12:35 PM	Open Source vs. Open Standards
	Agility and Speed with Security are the new currency in the digital world…enabling a constantly evolving mission, reducing time to value, and better decisions in a secure way. Use of Open Data, and Open Standards coupled with enterprise hardening is fundamental to this digital transformation. Government programs have traditionally associated these concepts with Government off-the-shelf (GOTS) development, not Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) procurement. This capstone panel will discuss how government programs are leveraging Open Data and Open Standards and maturing make-buy decisions on COTS vs GOTS software. Curtis Arnold, Chief of the Sustaining Base Network Assurance Branch, U.S. Army Research Laboratory Jason Wu, Digital Services Expert, U.S. Digital Service Moderated by: CAPT Nick Buck, USN (Retired), President and Chief Executive Officer, Buck Consulting
