On Feb. 20, EMC is hosting a day-long event featuring keynote speaker Narayanan “KK” Krishnakumar, PhD who leads the company’s IT Office of Architecture and Innovation. (See his biography)
In addition to the keynote speech titled “Leading your IT Transformation,” the event will include 12 technologists discussing the very latest in EMC technologies throughout the day. 
Like many government organizations, EMC IT tackles unrelenting information growth, increasing business demand, cost pressures, complex application environments and aging, energy exhausting data centers while enhancing the productivity of its global workforce. In the last five years, EMC has aggressively virtualized its IT infrastructure; achieved unparalleled performance and utilization in the cloud; and opened the doors to IT-as-a-Service. So where do we go from here? In his keynote, KK will explore how the extensible cloud, ubiquitous orchestration, pervasive mobility, and Big Data will drive business agility and value — and help you fulfill your vision of a “connected government.”
Attendees will learn about EMC’s own story of IT-enabled transformation (EMC is 139th on the Fortune 500 list)
Other session topics throughout the day include Software Defined Datacenter of the future, Vblock converged infrastructure, Avamar and Data Domain data deduplication, new encrypted disks and FLASH technologies in VNX, RSA Archer Governance Risk and Compliance. Greenplum and Hadoop technology updates for Government data analytics are also on the agenda. “With current travel and budget restrictions, it can be a challenge for California Government IT professionals to stay current on technologies,” says Jennifer Axt, General Manager of the EMC State & Local Government and Education Sales and Program Office. “That’s why we’re bringing the sessions to them!”
