Case Study: Orchard Software achieves 100% uptime and scalable cloud infrastructure with Expedient

Reliable Infrastructure as a Service Keeps Orchard So ware Focused on Seamless Integration of Laboratory Information Systems Since 2004

Orchard Software, a leader in laboratory information systems serving more than 1,400 labs, faced rapid growth that made managing underlying IT infrastructure a distraction from developing product features and integrations. To offload hosting and ensure reliable connectivity for its complex, interface-heavy applications, Orchard turned to Expedient for data center, colocation and cloud hosting services.

Expedient delivered a multi‑site IaaS solution—Orchard consumes infrastructure across three Expedient data centers with a multigigabit network and local access to experts—backed by a 100% uptime SLA and secure replication between Expedient facilities. The arrangement produced predictable monthly operational costs, faster capacity scaling and improved availability, letting Orchard stay focused on product development; the companies have maintained a strategic partnership with Expedient since 2004.
