Overview

October 24

How do government agencies get more value from their existing investments and meet their innovation goals?

They rely on their mainframes. For most governments, a rip and replace of core infrastructure is cost prohibitive and complex and leaves IT environments lacking in capabilities that are often critical to delivering more services to their citizens, protecting their data and reducing costs.

Broadcom is nearly 12 months into its’ acquisition of CA and its commitment to “double down” on the mainframe to help organizations – including state and local government – modernize this vital asset.

We invite you to join Broadcom and Government Technology for an update on how Broadcom is:
- Making the mainframe more accessible via open source-driven devops tools
- Helping you pass audits and deliver on a compliant environment
- Equipping you with intelligent and predictive operations
- Closing the skills gap
- Delivering flexible and predictable licensing models
