Bluemix (Pre- DoDIIS App Challenge) BootCamp *

Calling all Developers! All Federal agencies are faced with expanding data sets and new mission goals for their use. The “big data” problem is overwhelming the ability of analysts to review, assess, and provide intelligence to national decision makers and the warfighter.  Furthermore, the “big data” problem is overwhelming the ability for IT departments to tag, process, and disseminate the right and relevant data.

Participants can compose apps with IBM Bluemix's SaaS offerings (Like Watson Natural Language Processing, Text Analytics services and IoT foundations) to rapidly glean new value out of Big Data.  Bring your laptop and innovate ideas, and we'll provide resources, mentorship  and refreshments! Develop and enter your ideas into the App Challenge Showcase on October 16th! (Details below)
