Time Machine Deployment Case Study for Life Sciences

This case study outlines how Instem, a provider of information solutions for Life Sciences R&D, utilized Time Machine to enhance the deployment of their pre-clinical trial software suite. The primary challenge faced by Instem was the need to deploy this software for major genetics drug companies within a constrained timeframe while adhering to FDA documentation requirements. The case study details the architecture of the application, which includes a client software component, a backend database, and a reporting module. It explains the deployment process, which involves functional testing under simulated future dates to comply with regulatory standards. Time Machine enabled Instem to create simulated dates for individual testers without affecting other users, significantly reducing testing times and resource requirements. The implementation of Time Machine standardized deployment testing across Instem's global customer base, allowing for quicker acceptance processes, thus saving clients substantial costs in deployment.
