The Data Intelligence Platform for Healthcare and Life Sciences

Power real-time decisions with data. The Data Intelligence Platform for Healthcare and Life Sciences enables organizations to both rapidly ingest data at scale and make insights available to stakeholders in real time. Process streaming data from anywhere to power real-time analytics, with applications ranging from managing hospital bed capacity to optimizing the manufacturing and distribution of pharmaceuticals.

The Data Intelligence Platform for Healthcare and Life Sciences delivers on the promise of real-time data, with the maturity that organizations demand from modern data platforms. Delta Lake simplifies the change data capture process while providing ACID transactions, scalable metadata handling, and unified streaming and batch data processing. Delta Lake also supports versioning and enables rollbacks, full historical audit trails, and reproducible machine learning experiments.

Improve the accuracy of decisions. Perform the largest analytics while meeting service-level expectations. Organizations no longer need to sacrifice accuracy or breadth of analysis. The Data Intelligence Platform allows companies to scale their analytics to the largest of jobs and deliver highly accurate analytics while meeting operational needs by using all types of data.

Use all types of data. Only 5%–10% of healthcare data is structured. Tapping into the other 90% of data helps organizations better understand the environment around them, and make intelligent decisions. The Data Intelligence Platform for Healthcare and Life Sciences has native support for all types of data — structured and unstructured, like medical images and video — which allows individuals across healthcare to make better-informed decisions.

Inexpensive and open collaboration. Healthcare organizations need to collaborate with their partners in real time, but existing data sharing technologies are expensive and often require that all parties invest in the same proprietary technology. The Data Intelligence Platform for Healthcare and Life Sciences leverages Delta Sharing to provide an open and secure method of data collaboration and sharing for companies. This inexpensive approach unlocks the power of collaboration with all partners. Instant data delivery, low TCO.

Healthcare and life sciences organizations rely on third-party data and partners across a tightly integrated ecosystem. The challenge? It's time-consuming and expensive to bring in new data sets and partners.

Databricks Marketplace, underpinned by the powerful capabilities of Delta Sharing, streamlines this and enables customers to quickly integrate new data in their environment in a period of hours and days. They can also leverage new models and apps and even share data with other partners via secure data clean rooms.

The impact of generative AI and large language models (LLMs) on society is growing by the day. Within the healthcare and life sciences industry, practical applications for innovations such as ChatGPT and Dolly are widespread — including reducing clinical note documentation and transcription, improving patient experience with chatbots, synthesizing biomedical literature, and more — all with the goal of increasing care coordination, discovering new therapeutics faster and reducing administrative complexity.

The fuel that makes an LLM run effectively is high-quality data, and lots of it. The Databricks Data Intelligence Platform for Healthcare and Life Sciences provides the underlying architecture and tooling to harness customer and operational data to easily deliver generative AI and LLM models to the entire organization. With a unified platform for all data types — structured, semi-structured and unstructured — the Data Intelligence Platform enables healthcare organizations to power their AI initiatives with all their data.

On top of the unified platform Databricks provides, we have developed free, purpose-built guides — fully functional notebooks and best practices — that speed up results across the most common and high-impact healthcare and life sciences use cases.
