Challenge
Medidata (a Dassault Systèmes company) is a SaaS platform for clinical trial data collection and management. The company is laying the foundation to monetize its data by building a clinical data platform, which meant delivering a dedicated, governed pipeline for every customer.
Solution
DataSQRL generated and operated the pipelines from a single SQL specification. An agent drafts each change, the compiler and validator verify it, and the team’s engineers review it as a pull request before it ships.
Results
- Automated 18,000 customer data pipelines with complete lifecycle management
- Consolidated cloud infrastructure
- Enabled the existing team of software engineers to build data products
- Laid the foundation for future growth in data products
DataSQRL let our existing team of software engineers build and operate the data products our customers asked for.
