enGenome is an Italian company, a spin-off from the University of Pavia, focused on the development and sale of medical software. Thanks to beSharp, enGenome now supports research, diagnosis, and treatment of severe and rare genetic diseases by providing customers with a highly scalable and high-performance platform for human genome analysis.
The Challenge
Achieving Scalability to Eliminate Inefficiencies.
- The limitations of the on-premise infrastructure were causing ongoing inefficiencies and bottlenecks as the number of users, analyses, and their complexity increase
- Migrating the infrastructure to the Cloud was not enough to solve scalability issues. Internally, there was a lack of sufficient Cloud expertise
- Market demand was extremely high, but the product was not yet ready for commercialization; rewriting the code from scratch would have taken too long to meet market needs
The Solution
On-Demand Scalable HPC Clusters.
beSharp configured HPC clusters that automatically scale based on computing power demands and the number of users. Delivering the product in a SaaS model eliminated hardware management costs and removed the need for physical installations by end users. The product can now reach an increasingly broad audience while consistently ensuring top performance.
