The story

A Brazilian health tech startup manages 90TB of real and synthetic DNA data to identify bacterial infections and antibiotic resistance.

Traditional laboratory identification methods require up to five days to process results, a critical delay that risks patient survival in acute care settings. The existing workflows could not analyze vast, evolving genomic datasets quickly enough to guide immediate antibiotic treatment.

The company deployed Oracle Autonomous AI Database with AI Vector Search to securely store and index 90TB of genomic data. OCI Generative AI executes millisecond-level searches across these datasets to match DNA sequences against known bacterial strains and resistance markers. This architecture enables the platform to deliver precise diagnostic reports to clinicians in hours rather than days.
