Webcast: Using Cloud Storage to Improve Agency Business Continuity

Government agencies have traditionally developed business continuity plans knowing that only limited data would be available in the event of a system outage, and that a loss of productivity was unavoidable. Now, with information becoming the central asset of government, federal IT managers need to drastically review the business continuity and disaster recovery paradigm, to cope with the reality of today’s budget environment, Big Data and government-wide shift of IT policies.

How can program managers remain consistent with the Obama Administration’s Cloud First policy and modify their IT portfolios to fully reap the benefits of cloud computing? The adoption of cloud technology can help agencies maximize capacity utilization, improve IT flexibility and responsiveness and minimize cost.

Join us for a webcast to look at how cloud storage and cloud-enabling technologies can help agencies raise the bar for business continuity as an alternative to continued investment in systems and software.

Attendees will learn how to:

Leverage cloud computing and virtualization technologies to improve business continuity and disaster recovery
Modify IT portfolios to align with White House strategies for government-wide adoption of cloud solutions
Meet Recovery Time Objectives and Recovery Point Objectives in a more cost-effective and efficient way
Mitigate data center downtime and data loss in the event of a system outage
