Agencies must develop more flexible networks as they look to update their legacy systems, IT officials said Wednesday during Brocade's Federal Forum.
"I think we're entering a period where there's going to be a new computing platform," said Health and Human Services CIO Frank Baitman at the Washington, D.C. event, produced by FedScoop. "The focus on technology, the focus on building things custom ways is going away ... We're going to be enabled to focus more on our mission."
