Life Sciences Companies Must Have The Right People and Products In Place For Success
There is a reason many companies in this industry fail; Life Science is difficult.. especially without the right people and products in place.
Life Sciences industry is made up of various branches such as pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, environmental sciences, biomedicine, nutraceuticals, neuroscience, cell biology, biophysics, and several others. All of the branches have the very same basic IT needs:
- a network you can rely on to be stable, up-to-date, and fast.
- laptops and desktops that are fast and enable your staff to execute quickly and efficiently.
- software solutions that are not only intuitive, but streamline processes.
These companies are met with the tricky part of identifying the correct options, implementing them at pace, while maintaining top notch quality.
A great plan poorly implemented is unacceptable, as is a well implemented plan that falls short of meeting the mark on keeping you secure or allowing your employees to function.
At Optistar, we have the experience and expertise to ensure that both sides of the equation align properly.

MULTI-CLOUD DISTRIBUTED WORKLOADS AND REDUNDANCY
Data lakes are now “multi-basin,” needing to exist at AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and others all at the same time. All of this must occur within a framework that keeps the business safe, allows productive workflows, and minimizes or eliminates downtime.

DATA IS WEALTH AND REQUIRES PROTECTION
(There is gold in them there hills….)
Data is the new gold, only with more value, from a 21st century point of view. This means that the new Frontier of Data is drawing entrepreneurial Individuals to innovate and create value, along with modern day “data desperadoes” eager to take advantage of those businesses that operate with their guard down.
That new, earth shattering, life changing, market disrupting idea that your company is seeking a patent on is only valuable while it remains proprietary. The “Secret Sauce” must be kept just that, SECRET, to protect the value of your company and to keep regulatory bodies at bay.
