How Healthcare.gov Broke Down Data Silos and Achieved Mission Success

When developing healthcare.gov, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) faced issues that nearly all government agencies must overcome: how to manage disparate data sets, combine them with other data, and securely exchange information with other federal agencies, state agencies, the public and insurance companies. Government agencies are collecting more data than ever before. That data is being stored in purpose-built systems – creating data silos that are hard to use for any other purpose. This session highlights how a new Big Data technology called Enterprise NoSQL has been helping healthcare.gov and other public sector programs eliminate data silos to quickly and vastly improve mission effectiveness while reducing the time and cost of implementing Big Data IT projects.
