Harnessing the Power of Technology in Service of Human Health: Transforming Data at GSK

GSK is transforming the way it uses data in the research space to discover treatments faster and with greater precision. By combining scientific data at an unprecedented scale with the high-performance computing, Machine Learning Operations (MLOps), and computational science tools needed to leverage it. GSK aims to improve the health of billions of people worldwide.

Revolutionizing GSK’s Data Capabilities

To manage the  enormous growth in data across the R&D landscape, GSK has developed Onyx, a suite of next-generation platforms designed to process and scale this data. Onyx allows GSK to build a comprehensive data and machine learning ecosystem that empowers teams—particularly in research and AI/ML—with efficient access to data. By ensuring its experts have the right data at the right time, GSK is able to accelerate its mission to stay ahead of disease and bring new treatments to market more quickly.

Moving to the Cloud

The move to a Cloud-based data and analytics set of platforms will provide modern enterprise-wide infrastructure for R&D. Through Onyx’s significant data engineering talent, GSK will increase availability to volumes of data, compute power, and automated data governance. This will enable in-house AI/ML teams and scientists to run a greater number of experiments, predictive and Large Language Models (LLMs) to drive answers to questions in hours rather than weeks or months. Additionally, this move will ensure GSK stays current with the latest technology, data security measures, and lower its carbon footprint emissions as it decommissions legacy data centres.

Driving Innovation Through Data and AI

The future of healthcare is increasingly shaped by data, including AI and machine learning, and GSK is at the forefront of this evolution. By integrating data-driven insights into every stage of  discovery and development, GSK is working not only to speed up the discovery of new medicines but also to ensure that these treatments are precisely targeted to individual patient needs. This approach is reshaping the healthcare landscape, enabling the company to create more personalized and effective treatments.
