Case Study: Humana achieves modernized data lake and proactive wellness analytics with Caserta

Modernizing a data lake to improve wellness

Humana, an insurance giant shifting from traditional health insurance toward wellness services, faced a surge of high‑volume, varied IoT and electronic medical record data after pilot programs using FitBits and other devices. To ingest and analyze these structured and unstructured streams, Humana engaged Caserta to modernize its data architecture and build a scalable data lake and ingestion platform.

Caserta implemented an enterprise data analytics architecture and a governed data lake with processes for data ingestion, governance, and access, creating semi‑governed zones for data scientists and fully governed data for BI users. The Caserta solution became the foundation for Humana’s analytics—giving analysts instant access to critical data, accelerating ROI measurement on initiatives, and enabling new wellness programs (for example, feeding smart‑scale weight data into models to detect risk and trigger timely interventions for congestive heart failure patients).
