Life Sciences

Life Sciences has some of the largest data generators in the world. Genome sequencers, pre-clinical imaging devices, MRI and CT scanners create terabytes of data per day. WOS allows these large data sets to be shared among research sites, increasing synergy of multiple institutions in accelerating discovery by facilitating consultation and analysis on a global scale.

In Genomics, new drug research, and large-population multi-site clinical trials, WOS provides long term data retention for subsequent research, and WOS object metadata can be used to keep track of and assure data provenance – vital in clinical trials and translational medicine. And WOS automatically integrates off-site data replication creating multiple copies of medical records kept at separate locations for to support federal HIPAA disaster recovery requirements.

• WOS enables Petabyte-scale data sets to be shared among geographically distributed research sites
• Facilitates collaboration and analysis on a global scale
• Easy to manage with high resiliency
• Breakthrough Cloud Storage Economics
