Case Study: BioStorage Technologies achieves global sample intelligence and a scalable cloud biobank with Denodo Technologies

BioStorage® Technologies Builds Intelligent Biobank to Power Academic Research and Help Cure Complicated Health Problems

BioStorage Technologies, a subsidiary of Brooks Life Science Systems, provides end-to-end sample lifecycle management for human, animal, plant and environmental specimens. To become the market-leading innovator and offer its expertise as a SaaS product, BioStorage needed to consolidate and integrate scattered clinical, research, biobank and laboratory data from facilities, hospitals and government sources worldwide—overcoming disparate data types, locations and slow, convoluted processes that hindered research and therapy decisions.

BioStorage built the ISIDOR platform on Amazon, using Denodo for data virtualization and MicroStrategy for visualization to create a logical, non-replicated global data layer plus dashboards and sample-selection tools. ISIDOR delivers a 360° cloud view of biosamples, enables secure remote access and analytics, launched a new SaaS business line that grew revenue and streamlined operations, and increased the company’s market value—contributing to Brooks Life Science’s adoption of ISIDOR for product portals, patient consent and monitoring.
