10. Challenge for Government Agencies: Development and testing environments
Using traditional methods, government agencies cannot precisely represent real-world operating conditions in their application development and testing environments.
Procurement can be the biggest bottleneck for their IT orgs.
This can introduce risks like:
Technical problems
Servers
Networks
Security vulnerabilities
Schedule delays
Budget overruns
Quality Issues
Defects in Production

11. “Testing as a Service” – TaaS
What one Government Agency had to decide
Real World Government Entity’s dilemma
Performance Testing
Owned the software – still in the BOX
Authorized a STUDY to calculate – plan and costs
Came back with 6 months to one year
Costs would be close to $ 100K before it started
RFPs – Award
Assign tasks to Gov. and contractors
Then they could start Performance Testing
Possibly, if the environment is ready…

12. What is a Center of Excellence (CoE)?
A logical or physical “service bureau” providing expertise across projects in a “shared services model” to drive standardization of quality products and processes across the enterprise,
while lowering the TCO while increasing value to ALL teams.
Non-CoE Approach

13. “X” as a Service IaaS – Infrastructure as a Service
PaaS – Platform as a Service
EaaS – as a Service
DaaS – Desktop as a Service
BaaS – Backup as a Service
MaaS – Monitoring as a Service
SaaS – Software as a Service
RaaS – Recovery as a Service
TaaS – Testing as a Service

20. What Government Agencies are saying
NARA – leverage the HP ALM capabilities to have current Visibility, Traceability and Accountability of all test efforts in the agency.
The Defense Information Systems Agency sharing what to expect before moving to a virtualized environment and how that knowledge acts as a precursor to the cloud.
What the road to virtualization looks like and what it means for employees and stakeholders from the National Agricultural Statistics Service of the USDA.
(cultural change)
The HHS Office of the Inspector General discussing reduced operating costs and physical data space
when moving to virtualization.
KPMG 2014 Cloud Survey Report:
"Cloud has clearly come of age. Driven by the demand for speed, flexibility, scale and
anywhere access, consumers have fully embraced a cloud-enabled world."
