FedScoop announces the Red Hat Government Symposium which will be held October 23rd at the Newseum in Washington D.C.

Experience the momentum of open source first-hand. Talent, energy, and passion are harnessed in collaborative communities of innovation, taking on the biggest challenges in government information technology.

Open source helps agencies at all levels of government meet mission-critical IT demands, while offering something unique. Freedom and choice. Unlike other approaches, having a choice of platform, virtualization and cloud provider allows agencies to stay in control of their infrastructure and eliminate lock-in, while achieving better performance, security and reliability.
