IBM Cloud for Global Scale
SmartRural Valladolid, Spain
SmartRural helps farmers across Spain reduce costs and shrink their ecological footprint through analysis of farm data and drone images on their platform on the IBM Cloud. Before moving to the cloud, SmartRural stated that it would take them many days to process just one farm's data on their in-house server platform. To be able to take on more clients, SmartRural migrated to the IBM Cloud to help drive better performance, security and scalability. SmartRural reports that they can now crunch data faster than before, supporting farmers with the actionable insights they need to deliver good crop yields cost-effectively. On average, they claim to have helped farmers reduce their irrigation, fertilizer and phytosanitary costs by 25 percent.

Think Research Toronto, Canada 
Think Research hosts software applications that organize healthcare data for clinicians on the IBM Cloud. Translating medical research and best practices into point-of-care tools, these applications support healthcare professionals with digitized clinical orders, e-referral and virtual care tools, EHR content, and clinical support tools and electronic admissions for long-term care. Think Research chose to move to the IBM Cloud to help them more easily enter new markets and scale internationally since the IBM Cloud is built to help businesses comply with local data requirements and supports their need to meet stringent health industry privacy requirements.

MediStreams United States 
MediStreams handles remittance processing for healthcare providers by running their HIPAA-ready solutions on the IBM Cloud to dramatically lower the cost of processing payments in the billing office and more easily address data governance needs. As MediStreams grew, it migrated to the IBM Cloud because it needed to move to a multisite solution of dedicated servers to support their redundancy, disaster recovery and compliance responsibilities. In the world where HIPAA strictly governs the protection of patient healthcare information, the IBM Cloud helps support MediStreams' compliance with single tenant services. MediStreams can benefit from dedicated instances and guaranteed capacity for their business requirements.
