OF WORLDS INSULIN
INSULIN PENS
PEOPLE USE THEIR DIABETES CARE PRODUCTS
efio built a cloud platform on AWS using IaC, Infrastructure-as-Code for Novo Nordisk. Our client, Novo Nordisk A/S is a Danish multinational pharmaceutical company developing innovative medicine and delivering systems to improve the daily life of millions of people. Novo Nordisk supplies about 50% of the world’s insulin and provides over 32 million people with their daily diabetes care products.
The project
efio worked together with the Novo Research Application Platform (NRAP), which is used within the R&D. It is put together by off-the-shelf products for data integration and management of inventory and science data. The platform consists of both classic 3-tier and cloud-native applications.
efio was part of the NRAP project from the beginning and helped develop it into a service now consisting of 20+ servers, containers, autoscaling groups, and load balancers, with the platform fully automated on AWS through infrastructure-as-code and CI/CD pipelines.
A special focus area within life sciences with the need to meet extremely high standards of compliance to achieve a license to operate (eg. FDA compliance for selling in the USA). efio helped meet these needs while still developing faster time-to-market infrastructure using compliance-as-code.
As the project was new to Amazon Web Services (AWS), efio advised the team on AWS best practices to optimize the usage of cloud infrastructure on AWS.
