Overview Headquartered near Zurich, Switzerland, Datasign AG is a software development firm that serves large, Swiss-based international companies, particularly the pharmaceutical industry. The company focuses on using "best of breed" tools to help its customers get the most value out of their applications. The consolidation of the pharmaceutical industry in recent years has created a handful of global industry giants. Prominent among them is a $17.2 billion world leader in healthcare with core businesses in pharmaceuticals, consumer health, eye-care, and animal health. The pharmaceutical giant turned to Datasign to develop two such applications, both of which were critical to its success: a distributed data entry system for genomic sample hybridization and a global automated ordering system to be shared with several factories world-wide. The pharmaceutical giant turned to Datasign to develop two such applications, both of which were critical to its success: a distributed data entry system for genomic sample hybridization and a global automated ordering system to be shared with several factories world-wide. When company personnel explained their requirements for global and distributed applications to the Datasign team, the team knew that its best option for development was Java technology in a Web-based Intranet environment. Besides delivering the necessary platform independence, performance, and 24x7 availability, use of Java technology would enable the applications to easily integrate with the pharmaceutical company's existing systems.
