Beyond SOA & Cloud Conference
The 2010 AFCEA DC
Beyond SOA & Cloud Conference
Next Generation Information Exchange in High Consequence Environments
March 18, 2010
8am-5pm
Hilton Washington, Washington, DC
With KEYNOTES from:
* LTG Stephen Blum, Vice Commander, USNORTHCOM/NORAD
* Bart Johnson, Under Sec for Intel & Analysis (I&A) and Chief Intel Officer (CINT), DHS
* Michael Jones, Chief Technology Advocate, Google
* among others….
Government agencies and their trusted partners across the globe face a common challenge today and into the future: how to exchange services and information more rapidly, securely, and effectively across organizational boundaries – and even across industry boundaries. Information Exchange is now at the heart of transformational improvements in high consequence environments – where lives, fortunes, and freedom itself are at stake: Health Information Exchange (HIE) is transforming high consequence environments in the healthcare industry, Net-Centric Information Exchange is transforming high consequence environments in Defense, and the Intelligence community is making progress in sharing information since the tragic events of 9/11, but clearly challenges still exist.
While SOA and Cloud Computing provide a framework for sharing services and information, they must work in concert with other technologies to enable Next Generation Information Exchange in High Consequence Environments. Our speakers and panels of government and industry technical experts from defense, homeland security, healthcare, energy, and other industries will discuss how these technologies will work together to enable Next Generation Information Exchange, using case-studies and scenarios based on their experiences and perspectives.
The conference program includes leading experts in SOA, Cloud Computing, Business Process Management, Web 2.0 Collaboration, Data and Information Management, High Performance Infrastructure, and Cybersecurity technologies.
