Palantir’s platform was instrumental in the fight against COVID-19 by providing customers a secure platform to integrate, harmonize, and analyze COVID-19 data. At the NIH’s National Covid Cohort Collaborative (N3C), Palantir software was used to accelerate research and improve understanding of the disease. More than 1000 researchers used N3C to collaborate on hundreds of projects that ultimately helped guide an effective response to COVID-19. Palantir was also used by other organizations across the U.S. government to better respond to the pandemic.
“Our software was designed to tackle the world’s hardest problems, and we are proud to have partnered with AWS to rise to the occasion during an unprecedented public health crisis,” said Palantir vice-president Josh Harris. “Palantir’s platform is ideally suited to strengthen the ability of organizations across healthcare systems to combat the pandemic. By centralizing disparate data sources and harmonizing that data, Palantir allowed scientists to accelerate their patient research and improve their response to COVID-19.”
“Every year we are impressed by how our partners continue to innovate using cloud technology, helping their customers raise the bar on mission success, and this year is no different,” said Sandy Carter, Vice President, Worldwide Public Sector Partners and Programs, AWS. “The 2021 AWS Public Sector Partner award winners display a sincere commitment to impact the lives of our customers around the globe.”
