Keynotes
Big Data – Realizing the Potential
Gary Bloom, CEO, MarkLogic
Christopher Lindblad, Founder, MarkLogic
Shaun Connolly, VP, Corporate Strategy, Hortonworks
Big Data is gaining a lot of attention around the world, but the phrase itself can be a misnomer. Too often, conversations focus on the “Big,” when the real impact in fact comes from the “Data.” The same is true for Open Source. There is a lot of hype about Open Source technologies, but often with little understanding about the amount of resources it takes to make the technology enterprise-proof and mission-ready.
In this keynote, we will explore how MarkLogic helps customers manage data — in any type, at any volume, in any structure — and build applications that are flexible and responsive to change. Our customers build application’s on MarkLogic with speed and agility that relational database technology is notable to match. They will also explore how the combination of Hadoop and an Enterprise NoSQL database can help organizations segregate data among different storage and computation environments to optimize cost, performance, availability and flexibility.
Harnessing the Power of Technology to Compete in the 21st Century
Aneesh Chopra, Former Chief Technology Officer of the United States
Aneesh Chopra developed an “open innovation” strategy that tapped citizen expertise to make government smarter and more responsive to private sector demands. As he comments on the key technology trends that confront public and private sector organizations, including the growth of big data, mobile broadband, the importance of privacy and security and the promise of new collaboration tools, Chopra will share his insights on how organizations can effectively develop new products and services to meet growing customer demands.
Trends in Big Data: Analytics, Hadoop, Cloud, and Beyond
Christopher Lindblad, Founder, MarkLogic
Shaun Connolly, VP, Corporate Strategy, Hortonworks
Government technologists are using Big Data analytics for applications such as pattern recognition, cryptographic analysis, detection of fraud and abuse, and image processing for security. More and more, Hadoop is being leveraged as the underlying technology for dealing with Big Data, along with NoSQL databases to enable real-time applications. At the same time, both public and private clouds are pursued as cost-effective ways to deliver scale as needed. This panel discussion will explore how government agencies and the enterprise can leverage advancements in analytics, Hadoop, and the cloud to ensure cost-optimized deployments of applications that are able to scale to meet the largest data challenges.
Five Megatrends Shaping the Future of IT
Bob Gourley, former CTO of the Defense Intelligence Agency and Founder/CTO of Crucial Point LLC
Cloud Computing, Big Data, Cybersecurity and Convergence towards a common platform are among the trends that organizations are faced with today’s IT decision makers. In this session, leading tech industry analyst and former government CTO Bob Gourley will share his perspective on which trends are driving organizations to make change and how these disruptive technologies are relevant to your IT environment.
Solutions Track
Federal Facilitated Exchange
Chirayu Desai, Vice President, CGI Federal
CMS’ Center for Consumer Information and Insurance Oversight is implementing the Federal Insurance Exchange as required by the Affordability Care Act. The Insurance Exchange will be able to perform all of the major functions of an exchange – claims management, eligibility and enrollment activities, consumer assistance, premium tax credit calculation and financial management, such as payments to issuers. The Affordable Care Act requires the creation of a competitive health insurance marketplace for States and territories to help bring insurance coverage to 34 million additional Americans. Because of the scale, multiple state data types, and lifecycle cost implications
of the exchange, MarkLogic was selected as the transactional database to support the delivery of the Federal Insurance Exchange platform. CGI is the prime systems integrator to implement the Exchange, and will discuss the benefits of using a native XML database to support the scale, diversity and lifecycle cost requirements in this first of a kind project.
How SAMHSA is using XML to expand Public Engagement on critical Behavioral Health Topics
Adam Lee, Director, Information Systems, IQ Solutions
Atul Ganatra, Enterprise Systems Architect, IQ Solutions
SAMHSA’s Public Engagement Platform (PEP), managed by the Office of Communications (OC), provides the public with one-stop access to the Agency’s behavioral health communication products, services, and information. Continuing to grow SAMHSA’s audiences using traditional print channels is cost prohibitive. To respond to this need and align with the White House Digital Government Strategy, IQ Solutions used MarkLogic to create an XML based publications content repository to house the Agency’s products. The repository will enable SAMHSA content owners to store and deliver SAMHSA publication content through any digital communication channels. It will provide new ways of accessing content, new ways of finding content, and new ways of delivering content to the public and SAMHSA’s stakeholders. The underlying principle for this new support tool is to “create once, publish everywhere.” In this session, we will talk about the genesis, benefits, technical approach, initial outcomes and lessons learned from the project. We’ll also look at where the repository may take us and SAMHSA’s content in the future.
Geospatial Analysis for Unstructured Information
Bill Major, Sr. Technical Analyst, Esri
Efficiently incorporating unstructured information into geospatial analysis is a big challenge for analysts. Analysts are often required to expend significant time and effort to incorporate geospatial information within textual assets using manual processes, use a search tool to perform full text search, and finally integrate results in a geospatial analysis environment. This session will describe a MarkLogic-Esri solution which provides a real-time geospatial fusion framework for unstructured information.
It’s All About the Data
Chuck Aaron, Program Manager, KMD, US Department of Homeland Security
DHS has significant data sharing challenges, aggregating data from multiple government sources and exchanging with first responders at the state and local level. The data arrives in multiple formats and is stored in hundreds of different data sources. A common storage and exchange format is XML (specifically NIEM). This session will discuss DHS’s focus on technologies to natively exploit XML data sharing.
Applying Advanced Analytics to Government Big Data Challenges
Tim Hoechst, CTO, Agilex
The Big Data challenge for Government organizations is transforming large amounts of complex data into meaningful insight and actionable intelligence. This session will discuss the use of Latent Semantic Indexing techniques to discover new relationships and key concepts in extremely large volumes of structured, semi-structured and unstructured data.
Technology Track
Introduction to MarkLogic
Dale Kim, Sr. Industry Solutions Manager, MarkLogic
Clark Richey, Technical Director, MarkLogic
This session introduces the MarkLogic products, defines terms, and summarizes the technology architecture, which will set the context for other talks in the Technology Track. Learn about MarkLogic Server’s unique design and find out why it is great for searching, aggregating, and scaling out. Attendees new to MarkLogic should consider this a “must-see.”
MarkLogic & Hadoop: A Reference Architecture for Real-time Big Data Applications
Clark Richey, Technical Director, MarkLogic
Billie Rinaldi, Hortonworks
Applications are an essential part of any Big Data solution. They bridge the gap between the huge amounts of raw intelligence stored and refined in Hadoop and the knowledge workers who are making mission-critical decisions. MarkLogic is an enterprise NoSQL database designed for real-time Big Data applications that require sophisticated full-text search, transactional updates, and proven production reliability. In this session you will learn about a reference architecture that combines MarkLogic and Hadoop to provide interactive search and discovery in MarkLogic with large-scale processing and storage in Hadoop.
MarkLogic 6: New Capabilities for Mission-critical Big Data Projects
Steve Guttman, VP, Product Management, MarkLogic
Government agencies want to take advantage of a new class of innovative technologies that solve today’s data challenges. Rather than spend valuable resources on low-value activities such as data modeling, integration, and growth planning, they want to focus on high value outputs. They are looking for the flexibility of schemaless NoSQL databases. They seek out-of-the box features, especially search capabilities, to lower development costs. They want a technology that integrates with existing infrastructure and has proven, enterprise-grade reliability and security. This session will give a technical overview of new features in MarkLogic 6, and how they help with government deployments.
Plug-and-Play Big Data: The SGI® DataRaptor™ Big Data Appliance
Ken Hill, Solutions Architect, SGI Federal
SGI has joined forces with MarkLogic to deliver a one of a kind Big Data Appliance – the SGI DataRaptor with MarkLogic Database. This session will describe how the SGI DataRaptor accelerates and simplifies the delivery of highly scalable Big Data applications by providing an infrastructure that can be deployed in hours instead of days or weeks.
How MarkLogic Solved Government Data Challenges
Chris Biow, CTO, Public Sector, MarkLogic
Government agencies are facing new and ongoing challenges dealing with the volume, variety, velocity, and complexity of Big Data. Beyond the difficulties of simply collecting and storing this information, agencies need to make it accessible to users in new and different ways to address a variety of mission-critical requirements. Chris will describe the details of MarkLogic customer implementations that have solved key challenges, including:
- Capturing, managing, searching, and analyzing open source intelligence information, including social media data
- Integrating mission-critical information from disparate data silos with a virtualization (“data cloud”) solution, to create a centralized, searchable system.
We will have several Birds-of-a-Feather (BOF) Sessions hosted by MarkLogic and sponsor experts at lunch during the Government Summit. Grab your lunch from the buffet and then sit down at a BOF topic you want to discuss. Our moderators are there to help get the conversation started, but don’t worry, this isn’t a sales pitch – no slides, no laptops! This is a chance for attendees and experts to meet and exchange ideas on the topic at-hand.
