MarkLogic recently held its annual Government Summit, included more than 350 government and industry decision maker attendees who explored big data solutions.
Amidst panels and discussions was the official launch of the MarkLogic Public Sector Twitter handle, @MarkLogicPubSec and the MarkLogic Public Sector Facebook page.
“This year’s MarkLogic Government Summit gave public sector professionals an opportunity to learn how their peers, other organizations, and corporations are taking advantage of Big Data to achieve mission success,” said Randall Jackson, vice president, MarkLogic Public Sector.
“We look forward to continuing to drive the big data conversation and provide a ‘go-to’ resource for Big Data information through our new online outlets including Twitter and Facebook,” he added.
This year’s keynote speakers included former director of the Central Intelligence Agency and NSA Gen. Michael Hayden and former chief technology officer of the C.I.A. Bob Flores. Both speakers provided real life examples of the data deluge and the importance of being able to analyze it quickly to keep the U.S. safe.
