Searching for Efficiency in R&D Laboratories
As markets demand greater efficiencies in all areas of the Life Sciences, the field is becoming increasingly “industrialized” through the increasing application of computer-driven analytical instruments.
Unfortunately, there is a gap in this assembly line. There are no solutions to make the massive amounts of raw, unprocessed, proprietary data produced by the instruments open and accessible.

"Holding the data hostage in proprietary file formats should not be tolerated in the scientific community. The future of data-intensive biology depends on ensuring open data standards and freely-exchangeable file formats"

Introducing Rubicon - the Indigo Solution to R&D Data Management
Rubicon from Indigo BioSystems is a single technology that offers a robust, simple, and easy-to-implement solution to these challenges. By making information independent of equipment and knowledge independent of time, Rubicon effectively closes the gap between data and value. Capturing proprietary, machine-readable data at the moment of its creation, and archiving it into an open, human-readable format, Rubicon eliminates the problems of data obsolescence while removing the time-consuming inefficiency of arbitrary file-and-directory structures, and the tedious effort of multiple annual system validations.
Rubicon platform independent quantitation capabilities ensure identical analytical results, irrespective of computer hardware and operating system.
Rubicon also enables sharing of data with other laboratories, including Contract Research Organizations, in a secure, efficient environment.
Rubicon supports Microsoft Windows and various versions of Linux as a server platform.
