How a leading biotechnology company gained visibility over their infrastructure

A leading biotech company in America reached out to us to achieve visibility on their infrastructure for right-sizing, along with infrastructure and application monitoring to set cost expectations. Easesol provided the client with infrastructure monitoring and alerting capabilities by the observability implementation plan.

The Situation

The customer is a leading biotechnology company in America with a vision to reshape pharmaceuticals by creating new ways to make life changing medicines. The company has been in the business of leveraging technology to manage clinical research and has helped transform the way clinical trials are conducted.

To achieve its vision, the customer needed to go through their infrastructure transformation journey. They had an existing on-premise infrastructure and wanted to move to cloud services. They chose AWS as their cloud provider and started the journey.

They were facing challenges because they have a big organization, different applications, different types of infrastructure requirements and different teams. Therefore, they were still in the learning phase of understanding how to best deploy cloud solutions and have complete visibility over it.

The Problem

A leading biotechnology company that invents life-transforming medicines for people with serious diseases wanted to enhance its business processes.

They want to keep an eye on their infrastructure for right-sizing, monitoring their infrastructure, applications and setting performance benchmarks for their IT organization.

Additionally, they want to reduce manual effort, set cost expectations, and have an IT organization that is proactive.

The Solution

It was clear the biotech company needed an IT solution that would allow them to use cloud technologies to their advantage. That's when Easesol stepped in.

As a leading cloud consulting firm, Easesol helped the pharmaceutical company by using their expertise to prepare multiple environments for the Kubernetes cluster using Terraform on EKS for the various accounts.

Easesol delivered on this by being part of a talented team of software, security engineers, and solution architects to build a reliable platform.

Moreover, Easesol also prepared the observability implementation plan that included monitoring infrastructure setup and resource onboarding. We also prepared/performed chaos engineering and platform load testing on EKS Kubernetes cluster for the production/staging environment.

Furthermore, Easesol prepared power shell and shell scripting for various purposes and custom Prometheus exporters using python and go-lang.

The Result

At Easesol's, we were able to address all of our client’s pain points.

A new platform that enabled the biotech company's business transformation through increased flexibility and scalability. This allowed them to serve better to their customers.

We were able to help the company by providing visibility on infrastructure for right sizing, as well as setting up infrastructure and application monitoring.

These solutions allowed us to set a benchmark for the client's IT organization's performance, as well as improve their performance and reduce manual effort. As a result, the client saw dramatic improvements in performance metrics across the board.
