Data continues to transform the public sector in meaningful and compelling ways. As a vast creator and consumer of data, government agencies have a unique opportunity to revolutionize their decision-making power by utilizing data to the fullest. With Cloudera, government agencies have the ability to harness the power of the industry’s leading enterprise data cloud, which employs artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to identify patterns in the data that can inform future decisions that impact everything from constituent services and infrastructure planning to resource allocation and national security.
While adopting a robust data architecture that can store, analyze and manage massive amounts of government data is one component of the big data solution, the task of migrating and managing this data poses its own set of challenges. While a large number of data issues can be resolved by an agency’s internal team, challenges with data clusters and infrastructure require more insight than a simple internet search can provide. And, unlike commercial organizations, government agencies often require an added level of security, as well as U.S. Citizen, U.S. Based resources to ensure that critical data is kept out of harm’s way.
That’s why we have revamped Cloudera Government Support to ensure that every Cloudera Public Sector customer has the option to purchase access to highly skilled support engineers to quickly resolve issues and provide expert guidance on a wide range of services related to your Cloudera platform.
Why Does Your Agency Need Support?
We’ve listened to our government customers and know that many agencies require support when it comes to configuration issues within their data cluster. Cloudera Government Support provides your agency with real-time engineering assistance to resolve issues in a timely and efficient manner.
Our team of engineers has helped address numerous situations that could have been avoided with the capabilities provided through Cloudera Support. For example, one public sector customer saw regular data node crashes across their system, which caused disruptions for over a year. After enrolling in Support, the support engineers ran a configuration review and identified a simple software revert that solved the issue—a fix that took mere hours to accomplish. To date, the customer has not experienced any additional system crashes, benefitting from a seamless user experience facilitated by Cloudera Government Support.
As the volume and variety of government data continue to increase, the support team provides customers with the expertise to identify systems’ data issues and remediate operational challenges to ensure maximum efficiency and effectiveness.
