WOKING, UK, March 1, 2023 (Archyde.com) /PRNewswire/ – IDBS, a leading provider of life science informatics and process data management solutions, and SciBite, an award-winning provider of semantic analytics technologies, today announce a new partnership to transform the way research data platforms work with FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable).
SciBite is at the forefront of supporting the transition from an “application-centric” to a “data-centric” approach to FAIR. This means data is aligned to enterprise-wide ontologies rather than application-specific standards. Through this partnership, IDBS and SciBite aim to enable their customers to achieve a “data-centric” FAIR by aligning data with a core set of standards, improving interoperability and unlocking the untapped value of our customers’ data.
Already deployed by many leading pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies, SciBite’s CENtree ontology management platform provides a centralized, enterprise-ready ontology management resource that revolutionizes the maintenance and sharing of ontologies for research-driven companies.
IDBS specializes in collecting, managing and analyzing R&D data during product development and manufacturing. The new SciBite connection links CENtree ontologies to IDBS Catalog (Ontology Manager) for use in IDBS Polar and E-WorkBook cloud-native workflows and to synchronize terminology with the rest of the organization. This ensures customers benefit from greater data interoperability and more consistent Master Data Management (MDM). SciBite and IDBS joint customers with compatible technology can immediately benefit from this connection:
- Seamlessly merging industry standards and public ontologies with proprietary terminology
- Control the democratization of the development and maintenance of terminology to support end users through the governance framework that CENtree provides
- Harmonize data within the IDBS platform with data managed in other tools across the enterprise for a unified view of the data.
“Our partnership with IDBS will unlock previously untapped potential and new use cases for our mutual customers. Enabling customers to deploy ontologies, whether public or proprietary, across the enterprise is key to data discoverability and interoperability,” said Julien Debeauvais, vice president of sales and alliances at SciBite.
“Losing insights from generated data and spending time manually manipulating data to make associations between terms just because a ‘truck’ isn’t always referred to as a truck, but sometimes also as a van or lorry, is one of the biggest challenges in the industry. This connection is the first step in our partnership with SciBite to enable our customers to unlock the value of their data to accelerate scientific discovery and development,” said Christian Marcazzo, Vice President and General Manager at IDBS.
