DataRobot and InterSystems Partner to Accelerate Adoption of AI in Healthcare

Strategic partnership provides developers access to DataRobot within InterSystems platform

 BOSTON – March 9, 2020 — DataRobot, the leader in enterprise AI, and InterSystems, a global leader in information technology platforms for health, business, and government applications, today announced a partnership designed to accelerate the application of AI in healthcare. Through an integration and reseller agreement, the partnership makes it easier for InterSystems customers to integrate predictions and insights from DataRobot’s enterprise AI platform into their healthcare applications.

The DataRobot enterprise AI platform provides automation across the entire AI lifecycle, accelerating and streamlining a user’s journey from data to value. Through this partnership, the enterprise AI platform will be integrated with InterSystems IRIS^® data platform and InterSystems for Health, the world’s first and only data platform specifically engineered to extract value from healthcare data.

“Healthcare is prime for disruption in ways that benefit patients, providers, and payers, and AI represents the next frontier,” said Bill Hobbib, SVP of Marketing, DataRobot. “Our partnership with InterSystems makes it easier for users to leverage the power of AI to deliver high-quality care, improve patient experience and outcomes, all while reducing the cost of care through AI-driven efficiencies.”

DataRobot’s enterprise AI platform will augment InterSystems’ IntegratedML, a capability that gives developers access to AutoML capabilities directly from SQL. This allows InterSystems IRIS and IRIS for Health customers to embed predictions within their existing applications in a simple, intuitive, and scalable way. InterSystems’ technology simplifies the data acquisition, normalization, and other “data wrangling,” and DataRobot’s technology simplifies the entire AI process from feature engineering and modeling to deployment and monitoring. This will accelerate delivery and time to value of ML/AI capabilities in real-time decisioning applications.

“DataRobot’s enterprise AI platform is a natural extension across all InterSystems deployments using our IntegratedML, both in healthcare and also in other industries,” said Scott Gnau, head of Data Platforms for InterSystems. “This enables developers to easily include machine learning and AI extensions, creating real-time enhanced decisions and analytics for their applications. It makes operations robust as well. IntegratedML is built into InterSystems IRIS and IRIS for Health – a secure and reliable platform that runs many of the world’s most health-critical applications, and DataRobot brings in best-in-class MLOps.”

“At Baystate Health, we are focused not only on the 800,000 patients in Western Massachusetts, but also on turning data into insights that can help advance healthcare nationwide and around the world,” said Joel Vengco, senior vice president and chief information officer of Baystate Health. “This partnership between DataRobot and InterSystems is an exciting one for us; it will put even more powerful tools in the hands of our development staff to create cutting-edge healthcare solutions.”
