New & Next: Put Data to Work for Mission Success

Data is growing exponentially. IDC predicts that over the next five years, data will grow at a compound annual growth rate of 21.2%, to more than 221,000 exabytes by 2026. Data is also everywhere – edge, core, and cloud. Most importantly, effective data capture, security, management, and analysis are critical to agency missions. Federal agencies must be able to keep pace with growing data volumes and leverage emerging technologies to create data-driven insights that support mission objectives.

This segment of the New and Next virtual series will explore how Federal agencies can rise above the data deluge today and well into the future.

We’ll address this issue from two important perspectives:

• How artificial intelligence, machine learning, and automation applied across edge, core, and cloud can accelerate data-driven innovation
• How Federal agencies can anticipate, gain, and maintain the skills they need to capture, manage, secure, and analyze growing volumes of data
