RADAR-base as a Service

Who is it for?

RADAR-base is a disease and device-agnostic digital health data collection platform, designed and built to be flexible and scalable using state of the art technologies. It can be fine-tuned to fit a broad range of use cases, which introduces complexity and a potentially steep learning curve for newcomers. Despite the existing documentation and use of popular open-source technologies, it can still be a time consuming, expensive and tedious experience to understand and deploy the platform ecosystem.

Our RADAR-base as a Service offering is specifically designed to support those who need a quick start to RADAR-base. This service helps you get to know the platform including all core features in detail and understanding different modalities and quality of the active and passive data collected from wearable devices and mobile applications, without investing in or depending on the technical and IT resources to deploy the platform for your use.

What is included?

Installation and configuration of the latest version of the RADAR-base platform for your use case
Hosting the platform on a public cloud located at your choice
Collect up to 1-2TB data for a period of 3 or 6 months.
Unlimited number of studies or participants to include in your pilot use case.
End-user training to use the platform for data collection using pRMT, aRMT, FitBit and Garmin
Maintenance and support during the use of the platform.

Who will be the owner of the data collected from this setup?

The customer organisation will be the owner of the data collected. The Hyve will enable you to set up the platform for your use case and guide you to get started. When the platform is used in actual patient monitoring studies, a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) will be made if The Hyve continues to manage the platform.

Will there be a single central installation that will be shared by all RADAR-base as a Service users?

No. Each organisation will get their own setup of RADAR-base, hosted in a GDPR compliant public cloud infrastructure located at the choice of the customer. This will ensure that the customer organisation has the full ownership and control of the platform and complies to ethical requirements of a platform in a real world remote patient monitoring study.

What kind of use cases fit RADAR-base as a Service better?

This fully managed solution is aimed to provide a quick and easy start to use RADAR-base. It enables researchers to explore and make use of the existing features of the platform without requiring modifications or additional implementations of features such as integration to a new device. Large scale studies often begin with small scale pilot studies, to understand the capabilities and get familiar with the platform before customising it for their use cae. Using RADAR-base as a Service can be a perfect option for such use cases. In general, small scale and short term studies can make use of this service as is.

Are there any limitations to the number of studies or participants that can be enrolled in this sub?

No. The subscription model allows you to use it for any number of studies or participants. The platform will be installed on a single virtual machine based server in contrast to a cluster of computers. Thus, based on the data modality and velocity, it can limit the number of participants who can send data at a given time. Ideally studies with 200 participants will use this setup. This may not be the ideal choice for large scale studies.

Can you explain the subscription model of this offering and how much would it cost?

On average the package would range from X-Y euros. There will be a one-time cost for installation, configuration and user training. In addition, monthly cost for hosting and support and maintenance of the platform. By default, we offer a period of 3-6 months. However, the customer has the flexibility to choose how long they want to use the service. Hence, each customer will receive a personalised quote.

Scalable and Extensible

The modular and plugins-based architecture is easy to build and scale. It supports a wide range of wearable sensors and APIs and can be adapted to different study protocols and trial designs.

Open data standards

To ensure interoperability of the large amounts of raw sensor data and structured aggregated data generated, it is stored in schematized data formats that adhere to Open mHealth standards.

Real-time monitoring

Participants are monitored actively and passively. Near real-time data collection allows study managers to closely monitor compliance.

Apache 2 license-free

The RADAR-base stack is published under an open-source license and therefore free of license costs.

End-to-end solution

The platform can tackle everything, from participant registration, linking of devices and scheduling study protocols to compliance monitoring and data visualization.
