Challenge


Median Technologies has developed a strong brand presence, team and business in China, a challenging market to break into, and was looking for a global partner able to serve its imaging CRO business and operation ramp up. The company understood that it needed local technology and business partners to achieve its expansion goals in the region and better serve its biopharmaceutical customers in China. Moreover, the company needed assistance with ICP filing, a complex IT compliance required by the Chinese government to host websites using local servers and Content Delivery Network (CDN) infrastructure.

Why Alibaba Cloud


As a leading cloud service provider in APAC and across the world , Alibaba Cloud was the obvious choice for Median Technologies. Alibaba Cloud’s presence in Europe and globally recognized technological innovations also meant that Median Technologies could rely on one cloud service provider for its cloud computing requirements, integrate their systems using a single platform, and deliver imaging solutions and services seamlessly.
Moreover, Alibaba Cloud offers an ICP Filing Consulting Service that Median Technologies can leverage to deliver services to its Chinese customers as per the rules set by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT). All of this meant that Alibaba Cloud is the perfect technology and business partner Median Technologies needed.

Architecture


After doing preliminary testing, Median Technologies preferred Alibaba Cloud as its cloud service provider across China and Europe regions to support its imaging CRO activities. The company deployed its platform with a cloud-based architecture and hosted its innovative solutions.
Effectively, Median Technologies migrated a large part of its on-premises infrastructure to the Alibaba Cloud Frankfurt availability zones, allowing it to cut down infrastructure spending while maintaining its solutions’ high-performance. The company uses Elastic Compute Service (ECS) clusters for platform deployment and processing requirements. It leverages multiple storage types offered by Object Storage Service (OSS) to store and retrieve intelligence and insight securely, optimally, and cost-effectively.
Moreover, Median Technologies relies on Alibaba Cloud Enterprise Network (CEN) so their teams can easily access their technology infrastructure and their partners and affiliates in China can seamlessly collaborate and deliver better imaging solutions faster.
