INTRODUCTION
In a collaborative effort, Bentley Ave Data Labs partnered with Covera Health to successfully execute a cloud-to-on-premises data center migration. This initiative aimed to accelerate AI model training while significantly reducing costs for Covera’s AI, Data Science, and analytics teams.
COMPANY BACKGROUND
Covera Health is leading the way in the emerging science of quality, deploying AI-powered quality insights to aid healthcare providers and payers in a shared quest to better define, measure, and deliver the highest standard of care to patients everywhere.
Headquarters: New York, NY
Industry: Healthcare
Bentley Ave Data Labs Services: Data Science and AI, Workflow Migration, Data Center Deployment
CLIENT OPPORTUNITY
After expanded investment in AI model development, Covera’s cloud computing cost profile continued to expand. To reduce cost and risk related to cloud services, Covera built an on-premises data center. With technical consideration, Covera would be able to:
- Transition large and complex workloads from various cloud-based resources to the new on-premise data center.
- Reduce rising hardware costs: Covera’s AI development model leverages 24/7 model training and could reduce operating costs by directly owning hardware.
- Expand service levels and overall model throughput: engineering a shared system that runs continuously.
SOLUTIONS PROVIDED
Bentley Ave Data Labs evaluated Covera Health’s existing cloud setup and developed a detailed migration plan focused on minimizing disruption and ensuring data integrity. Leveraging our tailored services and expertise in data center implementations and deep understanding of Kubernetes, we accelerated the migration and ensured a successful setup. Continuous collaboration with Covera Health’s team, combined with essential training and support, facilitated a smooth transition. Additionally, performance issues were addressed by optimizing configurations and workflows, ensuring the new setup met or exceeded the performance benchmarks of the previous cloud setup.
RESULTS & OUTCOMES
- Migration was completed and delivered within three months, transitioning smoothly from cloud-based services to the on-premises data center.
- Significant reduction in operating costs with enhanced performance and reliability of data processing tasks.
- Overall productivity boost from improved runtimes and coordination.
- Continuous support helped Covera’s team adapt to the new environment, with future training initiatives for additional improvements.
