Software AG Government Solutions is thrilled to be a part of AFCEA NOVA's 19th Annual Air and Space Forces IT Day as a bronze sponsor. This year's theme is Enterprise to the Edge: Cloud and Data Enabling MDO.

The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) announced its new data strategy in October 2020. In it, the DoD shared its plan to transform into a data-centric organization by using data to help the department fulfill a number of missions. With a focus on API-led hybrid integration, we will address some of the challenges facing the DoD data strategy – accessibility, discoverability, security, and scalability – and discuss the capabilities required for a successful implementation of the DoD Data Strategy.

Join us to learn how to:
• Unlock data from any data source
• Rapidly expose data and services with APIs
• Support a collaborative API lifecycle
• Secure your APIs and implement zero-trust architectures
• Share up-to-date information quickly and reliably with APIs

This virtual event is a one-day exposition with vendor speaking sessions being held virtually.

Software AG Government Solutions is excited to sponsor and present at the DoS Virtual IT Vendor Day - stay tuned for more details.

To this day, government and higher education institutions leverage extremely stable mainframe applications in their day-to-day business. The problem with these applications is the poor user experience and the ability to scale as demand warrants, but, on the other hand, rewriting these applications can be costly and risky.
