Meeting the War Department’s Edge Computing Challenge
Matt Barry, COO, HP Federal
Operating in contested and disconnected environments makes delivering resilient edge capabilities one of the biggest modernization challenges facing the War Department. Mission teams must maintain secure connectivity, process data at the tactical edge and support mission continuity even in degraded or low-bandwidth environments, all while navigating cyber threats, interoperability challenges and aging infrastructure. Leaders are increasingly focused on technologies that can bring resilience, security and operational continuity closer to the mission edge.
Matt Barry, COO at HP Federal, joined us at the Federal IT Efficiency Summit in Reston, Virginia, to discuss how his organization is helping government address those challenges through secure edge technologies for demanding operational environments. Barry shared how HP Federal approaches partnership beyond hardware delivery, helping agencies strengthen interoperability, improve resilience at scale and translate technology investments into real mission outcomes across defense and federal environments.
