Case Study: AstraZeneca simplifies cloud migration and collaboration with DryvIQ

AstraZeneca Migrates 100+ On-Premises File Shares to OneDrive

AstraZeneca, a global biopharmaceutical leader, faced the significant challenge of migrating over 100 on-premises document management systems and file shares for its 70,000+ users to Microsoft OneDrive. The goal was to enable better collaboration for its researchers and implement a cloud-focused IT strategy, but the immense volume of data and the need to avoid business disruption made the migration a major hurdle. To overcome this, they partnered with the vendor DryvIQ to handle the complex migration.

Using the DryvIQ platform, AstraZeneca fully automated the migration and synchronization of its business-critical files and metadata to the cloud. The solution was rapid, seamless, and completed without any interruption to operations. As a result, AstraZeneca consolidated its storage infrastructure, saved millions of dollars, and empowered its scientists to focus on research rather than file management. DryvIQ was a critical component in enabling this vision and simplifying the company's ways of working.
