EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Streamlining Real-World Data Extraction and Analysis by 70% Using AWS Data Exchange with Moderna
2023
Biotechnology company Moderna is creating a new generation of transformative medicine using mRNA technology. To power its intense workflows, the company needed to make its processes for ingesting, analyzing, and storing massive scientific datasets faster and more efficient.Moderna standardized its complete real-world data strategy on AWS. It’s using several AWS services alongside solutions from AWS Marketplace, a curated digital catalog that makes it easy to discover, procure, entitle, provision, and govern third-party data, software, and services to streamline data procurement.

In life sciences, real-world data (RWD) is the foundation for drug discovery, development, and commercialization. In this session, two of the world’s leading life sciences organizations, Moderna and Takeda, walk you through why the companies adopted AWS Data Exchange and Amazon Redshift as integral components of their RWD strategies.
AWS Powers Moderna’s Digital Biotechnology Platform to Develop a New Class of Vaccines and Therapeutics
2021
In a pandemic, speed to market matters and Moderna was able to complete the sequence for its mRNA COVID-19 vaccine in just 2 days using machine learning built on AWS. The first clinical batch was released just 25 days later. Artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms enable drug development from rapid experimentation cycles to help design mRNA and DNA sequences to the automation of quality control analyses, saving hours of manual review of improvements across production processes and logistics. mRNA science has applicability beyond just one application, and Moderna is rapidly expanding into other infectious disease targets and modalities like oncology and autoimmune disease—using the flexible, programmable nature of mRNA, powered by machine learning, to revolutionize how diseases are treated.

Moderna Achieves Speed and Scale by Using AWS
2018
Dave Johnson, PhD, chief data and artificial intelligence (AI) officer at Moderna, discusses how building on AWS is helping the company achieve its goal of revolutionizing the way diseases are treated with mRNA therapy by providing speed, scale, and insights that can drive the business forward.
Modernizing Pharmaceutical Manufacturing with IoT and AI/ML at Moderna
Moderna, a “born in the cloud” pharma company, used AWS Internet of Things (IoT), AI/ML, and data analytics services to build a connected, intelligent biopharmaceutical manufacturing and supply chain environment. Moderna constructed a 200,000-square-foot Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP)–compliant manufacturing facility utilizing SAP S/4HANA and AWS services to facilitate a “batch of one,” resulting in an ISPE Facility of the Future Award.
