Building the Foundation for AI in Public Health
Hosted By: Slalom, Snowflake & Carahsoft
When COVID-19 exposed the limits of Arizona's public health data infrastructure, the Arizona Department of Health Services didn’t patch the cracks — they rebuilt from the foundation up.
In this session, ADHS and Slalom shared the story of a multi-year data modernization journey that began with a bold vision, navigated the realities of public sector headwinds, and ultimately landed on Snowflake as the cornerstone of a statewide enterprise data platform.
From ingesting core vital statistics to connecting infectious disease surveillance, county partners, and the public through trusted, real-time data, this is a story about what becomes possible when a bold vision is carried through to bold action.
What was covered:
- How a pandemic-era crisis became the catalyst for a statewide data modernization effort and the leadership resolve it took to make it real
- How ADHS evaluated and selected a modern data stack, and why Snowflake emerged as the enterprise data lakehouse of choice for a mission-critical public health environment
- How the platform expanded from an initial Vital Statistics proof of concept to span multiple complex data domains, and what Snowflake-to-Snowflake sharing has unlocked for county and tribal partners across Arizona
- How the data lakehouse became the backbone for a complete rebuild of Arizona's statewide infectious disease surveillance system and how that integration will power a faster response to future public health events
- Where ADHS is headed next, and the emerging opportunity to apply AI and machine learning to public health data at a scale never before possible

The Ultimate Data Checklist for Public Sector
Public sector agencies are being asked to do more with fewer resources. IT teams continue to support priorities like cybersecurity, system-wide operations and observability, and compliance, without the flexibility to expand their solutions or their team.
To reduce costs and increase efficiency, start with your data. Ensure your data is organized, centralized, accessible and searchable. Then, ask yourself how you can leverage technology resources and investments you already have in place to build upon that foundation.
Download this checklist to help you find cost savings and efficiencies in your agency by better leveraging your data foundation.
