Data Mining, Management and the Cloud

Mark Weber, Senior Vice President for the Americas at NetApp, discusses data mining, management and the cloud on this episode of “Government Contracting Weekly,” a TV show that focuses on winning government contracts.

In this episode, Mark weighs in on the challenges of data governance; the benefits of public, private and hybrid cloud computing; vendor lock-in and leveraging data to measure project goals, save money and more.

Mark explains the benefits of the hybrid cloud model and the need for federal IT providers to deliver solutions that enable movement and storage of data across clouds. He explains that this distinction is critical, because agencies don’t move to the cloud, data does, and data can be hard to move.

When asked what his one piece of advice to agencies would be, Mark answered, “Manage your data. Control your data. Look at the hybrid cloud because that will allow you to manage your number one asset and that’s your data.”
