Session will showcase state and local governments adopting cloud applications to address open government, transparency and crowd-sourcing initiatives.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, California, November 12, 2010 — Caspio, Inc. (caspio.com), the leading cloud database platform, today announced that Caspio will present government cloud adoption successes as a featured speaker at UP 2010, the world’s first truly hybrid-format cloud computing conference taking place November 15-19, 2010.

Session: Data Nation: How Innovative Agencies are Merging Open Government with Cloud Technology
Time: Tuesday, November 16 at 5:00 PM EST

Faced with increasing demands for digitalization and transparency, state and local governments are finding creative ways to integrate the cloud into their legacy systems. Caspio will present an in-depth look at how various agencies are successfully deploying cloud-based applications to publish open data, promote citizen participation, and reduce IT costs.

• Confronting budget cuts, the Florida Department of Health rolled out an automated online portal to allow citizens to access state-run programs, request information, and search and download data.
• The Indiana Department of Natural Resources tackled common security concerns to keep full control of their data while gaining efficiencies from third-party cloud platforms.
• Under a short deadline from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, the Georgia Criminal Justice Coordinating Council utilized cloud services to rapidly create an online grant application without tapping IT resources.

Caspio will provide insight into deploying cloud, mobile, social and hybrid technologies for maximum cost-savings and groundbreaking results, including best practices to address compliancy and security concerns.
