Episode notes

What happens when a company focused on drug discovery and life sciences encounters a data problem that nobody else seems able to solve? Recorded at the IT Press Tour in Boston, this episode explores the fascinating story behind Paradigm4 and how a challenge in large-scale biomedical research ultimately led to the creation of flexFS, a cloud-native filesystem designed to tackle some of today's biggest data infrastructure challenges. Joining me on the podcast is David Freund from Paradigm4, who shares how the company was originally founded to help scientists work with enormous datasets in fields such as genomics, bioinformatics, and precision medicine. As researchers began working with population-scale datasets such as the UK Biobank, the team discovered that existing storage technologies either couldn't deliver the performance they needed, lacked the functionality required, or became prohibitively expensive at scale.
