Symyx Technologies has launched hosted informatics software to researchers working in the pharmaceutical, biotechnology and chemical industries and academia.
The offerings, to be accessed via a software-as-a-service business model, will combine Symyx software with data archiving capabilities in a secure data hosting and communications facility.
The hosted informatics environment will enable more R+D organisations to benefit from scientific software by reducing the requirements for information technology (IT) infrastructure and resources, lowering total cost of ownership and accelerating ELN deployment.
Initially, Symyx Notebook is being made available as a hosted electronic lab notebook (ELN) service enabling medicinal chemists, synthetic chemists and biologists to manage, explore, share and reuse experimental information and intellectual property (IP).
Using a hosted ELN service, R+D organisations can deploy and leverage the electronic notebook quickly and efficiently without added IT infrastructure.
