Large pharma distributor modernizes IT
in the cloud
AAH gains the scale and agility needed to stay ahead of emerging market trends.
About AAH, Part of Hallo Healthcare
AAH, part of the Hallo Healthcare Group, is the UK’s leading distributor of pharmaceutical and healthcare products. Serving pharmacies, hospitals, and dispensing doctors nationwide, AAH delivers pharmaceuticals to 14,000 pharmacies and other healthcare organizations from 14 modern distribution centers.
Challenge
Challenged to keep pace with the ever-changing regulatory landscape, AAH wanted to move their IT estate to the cloud, so they turned to the Actian Data Platform to help them modernize their infrastructure and provide the scale and agility required to adapt to emerging market trends.
Solution
Having built its existing systems on the Ingres database, AAH wanted a way to modernize its infrastructure without disrupting its logistics business. The Actian Data Platform will allow them to move to the cloud in a fraction of the time and cost.
Outcome
Leveraging the IngresNEXT migration path, AAH is well positioned to take a phased approach to their migration to Google Cloud.
