Thermo Fisher, a biotechnology giant, has been moving its applications to the public cloud as part of a larger initiative using MongoDB Atlas and Amazon Web Services. The company's Thermo Fisher Cloud offers 35 applications supported by over 150 developers, allowing customers to streamline experimentation, processing, and collaboration workflows. With MongoDB Atlas, Thermo Fisher is able to reduce experiment times from days to minutes, improving developer productivity and enabling the company to focus on its core strengths in serving science. The use of MongoDB has also helped simplify development workflows, reduced schema complexity, and improved performance compared to other databases such as MySQL, SQL Lite, and DynamoDB.
