"When my company suffered a ransomware attack on Dec. 23, 2023, I immediately reached out to Derive for assistance. With their round-the-clock remote and on-site assistance throughout the holidays, my company was back to normal IT operations only five days later. I continue to rely upon their expert and responsive IT services to this day."
"IT Initiatives has had a highly positive experience collaborating with Derive Technologies on the Fellowship LIFE project. Your team has successfully implemented our envisioned next-generation network infrastructure, utilized to provide exceptional care and services for our clients’ residents while meeting operational needs and objectives."
“Derive worked with our IT staff, suppliers, and technology partners to optimize a unified solution in far less time and with less expense than we imagined. As trusted partners, they
went above and beyond to secure our systems and ensure our goals were met or exceeded.”
“Our IT infrastructure was on the verge of obsolescence… until Derive Technologies helped us remediate that situation. Collaborating on
an IT roadmap highlighted their insight and ability to modernize our IT environment. Now our systems are faster and ready for future enhancements — and most important, patient data is safer than ever.”
“The HPE SimpliVity solution was precisely what we needed at this point in our company’s evolution. Having the ability to tap into the advantages of cloud computing while adding even greater data security and DR/BU capabilities was something we did not think was possible. But with HPE SimpliVity and the Derive Technologies’ team, it quickly became our new reality.”
“Derive has stepped up to the plate. They understand what healthcare is about. It’s not selling me a server; it’s selling me a service that helps me take care of my patients at the end of the day.”
“The solution far exceeded our expectations in terms of both short-term and long-term business value. Our infrastructure is now the foundation for us to deliver on our commitment to our customers: Get it right the first time, every time.”
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
AI enablement is the process of preparing, deploying, and operating AI solutions safely and effectively, from readiness and pilots to production and managed operations.
Derive implements the infrastructure and integrations needed to run AI models securely in your production environment. This is different from building bespoke models from scratch or running large-scale training pipelines. We deploy and integrate AI models, we don't train them. Think infrastructure and implementation, not data science.
Yes, in fact some highly regulated industries stand to grow the most from AI adoption and implementation. Derive specializes in healthcare, financial services, public sector, and other regulated environments who will benefit from integrating AI.
Readiness assessments typically take weeks, while fixed-scope pilots are designed to deliver outcomes within defined timelines bespoke to the organization working with Derive.
Absolutely. We design AI solutions that integrate with on-prem, private cloud, and public cloud environments.
