Regional health insurer scaling AI and cloud data infrastructure
Florida Blue operates a nonprofit health insurance business across Florida with 5,001–10,000 employees. The tech stack reveals a mature big-data foundation (Hadoop, Spark, Hive, HBase) paired with active adoption of streaming (Kafka, Storm) and aggressive cloud migration (AWS, Azure). Active projects signal a shift toward AI-driven operations—agent-based systems, secure AI-enterprise integration, and cloud-deployed architectures—while pain points center on datacenter exit, HEDIS care-gap closure, and scaling AI safely across regulated systems.
