How Can DataNovata Help Governments Save Time and Reduce Risk During Modernisation?

Governments supporting millions of citizens run on the reliability of their systems that uphold their crucial services.

As technologies evolve and current systems are left behind unsupported, government IT decision makers have to navigate a delicate balance:

  1. They must secure their public service systems and data within a modern system quickly to avoid the consequences of potential system collapse.
  2. They must choose and plan for the new system with care, to ensure its reliability and avoid any risks or pitfalls during the migration process.

DataNovata helps speed up the process by securing data history from potential loss so government only has to consider the functionality of the new system.

  • Separate data history from active systems

  • Choose the best system without worrying about mass data migration risks

Key Issues:

  • Unsupported legacy systems are at risk of collapse or breach, resulting in critical data loss
  • Data retention and accessibility considerations slow down decision-making as the best new systems may be incompatible with the older ones
  • Mass data history migration presents risk of data access disruption or loss if projects should be delayed

DataNovata's Solution:

  • DataNovata quickly secures your data history in a fully supported, read-only web interface
  • DataNovata is compatible with virtually any database and API-enabled so that you are free to select the best platform for your active systems
  • DataNovata recreates your data history tables with the original schema and data relationships intact for zero disruption to access or risk of data loss

Local Government

How does DataNovata Help to Reduce IT Expense while Improving Access to Private Data History?

With budgets allocated to maintaining existing infrastructure, local agencies struggle to finance modernisation to support their increasingly sophisticated communities.

As technologies age out of use there is growing concern about the cost and security of maintaining access to data history.

Local governments are looking for a viable, economic solution that will mitigate risk and support data modernisation so that they can maintain data access and continue to serve their communities in an efficient and compliant manner.

DataNovata can help to balance the conflicting priorities of tight budget management and service excellence while maintaining total compliance.

  • Workers with skills to support legacy databases are retiring putting data access at risk.

  • Rising cost of legacy resources is bottlenecking funds needed for modernisation.

Key Issues

  • Legacy licence costs block financing for buying new technologies while in place
  • Siloed data is difficult to access and retrieve when needed
  • Modernisation carries the risk of losing data access during a transition
  • Data inertia may present risks to data security and compliance

The DataNovata Solution

  • Frees up budgets by replacing the legacy databases at a fraction of the cost of the original licences
  • Lets you view data from any database source directly through a web-enabled application platform
  • Provides continuous access to data at any point in the modernisation process
  • Sits on a more secure, compliant digital platform for data retention management

DataNovata releases local government bodies from their legacy licence burdens so that they can reinvest into their budget and strengthen their digital infrastructure for better security and service delivery to their communities.

Public Safety

How Can DataNovata Help Public Safety and Law Enforcement Services Access their Historic Data to Support Digital Initiatives and Requirements?

There has been a wave of technologies to bring greater transparency, efficiency and effectiveness to the important task of public safety, such as security intelligence software and digital device networks, to report and access data from any critical location.

Additionally, regulatory standards are in flux as the LED undergoes updates to take over from the PNC, and steps are being taken to improve secure information transfer and redress inconsistencies and duplication.

But historic system data is not always compatible with newer technologies. Investment priorities are also not equal across different agencies. All this amounts to a negative impact on data access and collaboration.

Multiple agencies need dynamic access to Case, Records & Digital Evidence systems in order to ensure public safety as well as operational transparency and oversight.

  • Data accessibility is crucial to transparency to promote public trust

  • Data sharing supports cross-agency collaboration and law enforcement effectiveness

Key Issues

  • Due to the mix of multiple non-interoperable legacy systems, much of the data is lying dormant and inaccessible
  • Disparity in operational processes as well as technology buying patterns in the industry prevents easy data transfer between agencies and makes it difficult to comply with standards and regulations
  • Data migration for so much historic data is exorbitantly expensive but paying legacy licences when the data value is inaccessible drains funds unnecessarily
  • It is difficult to access data from any end-point which may be necessary in the field

DataNovata's Solution

  • DataNovata is a web-based data application platform where all data is easily accessible through a secure policy framework
  • DataNovata is compatible with any system and easily customised, making data easy to research, analyse and transfer with referential data integrity
  • Flexible licensing models suit different budgets and needs and with data secured without the need for mass migration, legacy can be decommissioned
  • DataNovata is a read-only resource that can be accessed from any device with permissions enabled, making it the perfect, agile tool for security data access
