As described in recent NASCIO reports, the CIO as a Broker model “best positions the state CIO to collaborate with agencies, engage the market, lead enterprise-wide initiatives, lead inter-enterprise collaboratives, and influence a digital government agenda.” Platform as a Service, or PaaS, is a critical tool to enable the CIO as a Broker model. When effective, PaaS provides access to enterprise data, workflow management functions and tools, and an intuitive interface. The organization has a single source of truth and one pane of glass from whichto view the health of its services. This session will explore the three common challenges that PaaS helps address and will examine successful PaaS strategies.
