Prolifics understands firsthand the importance of accessible and quality healthcare. If you’re someone who works a full-time job, ‘tries your best’ to attend routine medical care and feels relatively secure in your health and economic stability – you may often forget what a blessing it is to have access to these types of resources. However, this luxury remains out of reach for many communities worldwide, including those in West Zone Hyderabad, where hardworking individuals struggle to access essential healthcare services.
West Zone Hyderabad is home to over a million residents, predominantly comprises hardworking individuals from lower-income backgrounds, striving to make ends meet through construction and support services. Yet, amidst their toil, access to quality healthcare remains a distant dream for many.
The community grapples with multifaceted challenges, from low health awareness and limited access to affordability issues and accountability concerns. These obstacles create barriers to healthcare, leaving vulnerable populations underserved and at risk. Addressing these challenges requires collaborative efforts to ensure equitable healthcare for all.
A Catalyst for Change
The CR Foundation Rotary Prolifics Diagnostic Centre aims to change that narrative by offering free or subsidized diagnostic tests and consultations, ensuring that healthcare is no longer a luxury but a fundamental right for all. Spearheaded by the Rotary Club of Hyderabad Deccan and fueled by the generosity of organizations like Prolifics, this center stands as a testament to the transformative power of collaboration.
Equipped with cutting-edge diagnostic facilities encompassing Pathology, Ultrasound, TMT, ECG, X-ray, and CT Scan, the center leaves no stone unturned in providing thorough medical assessments. Moreover, its polyclinic setup, boasting services such as Physiotherapy, ENT, Dental, and Specialist Consultations, ensures that patients receive holistic care under one roof, eliminating the need for arduous journeys to multiple healthcare facilities.
Unwavering Commitment to our Communities
In a moment of profound significance, echoing our unwavering commitment to community welfare, Satya Bolli, the Managing Director of Prolifics, stood with pride at the inauguration of the CR Foundation Rotary Prolifics Diagnostic Centre on Sunday, May 5, 2024. Satya remarked, “At Prolifics, we believe that true success is measured not only by financial gains but by the positive impact we create in the lives of others. Our involvement in initiatives like the CR Foundation Rotary Prolifics Diagnostic Centre embodies this ethos, reflecting our unwavering dedication to corporate social responsibility (CSR) and community empowerment.”
Together, let’s continue to break down barriers, champion inclusivity, and pave the way for a healthier, more vibrant future for all. In addition to our commitment, we’re proud to announce a donation of Rs. 2.5 crores towards this cause. This center embodies the collaborative spirit needed to address the challenges facing the West Zone’s healthcare system, particularly in terms of access, affordability, and awareness. Through initiatives like this, we can work towards ensuring that healthcare becomes a universal right, rather than a privilege afforded only to a fortunate few.
Note to Readers
Your support and engagement are vital in spreading awareness and fostering positive change in healthcare accessibility. Consider joining us in this endeavor by donating or volunteering your time. Together, we can make a tangible difference in the lives of millions, ensuring that healthcare remains a fundamental right, not a privilege. Thank you for being part of this journey towards a healthier, more equitable society.
Prolifics Launches Manta-Prolifics Purview Connector for Enhanced Data Lineage
Orlando, Fla., April 23, 2024 – Prolifics, a global digital engineering leader, introduces the Manta-Prolifics Purview (MPP) Connector in collaboration with Manta. This innovative solution provides enhanced visibility, governance, and scalability for managing data assets and facilitating informed decision-making across organizations.
The MPP Connector is designed for Microsoft Purview customers seeking to enhance their data lineage capabilities beyond the standard scanning and ingestion features provided by Microsoft Purview.
How it Works:
The MPP Connector seamlessly integrates Manta’s automatic collection of lineage information into Purview. Manta extracts metadata, establishes lineage relationships, and exports the information, which the MPP Connector then reorganizes for seamless loading into Purview. This comprehensive lineage view within Purview facilitates effortless tracing of data across systems, addressing challenges such as data quality enhancement, compliance assurance, impact analysis facilitation, and cloud migration comprehension.
Features of MPP Connector:
Enhanced Lineage Integration: Integrate Manta’s sophisticated lineage seamlessly into existing Microsoft Purview solutions.
Comprehensive Governance Initiatives: Enable comprehensive governance initiatives for improved data management and compliance assurance.
Unified Lineage Capture: Expand across diverse tech types* (e.g., ETL tools, databases, BI platforms) beyond specific systems like IBM DataStage, SSIS, MS SQL, Power BI, and SSAS. Seamlessly integrate lineage from any Manta-supported source for broader insights compared to Purview alone.
Deeper Lineage Access: Creates a link back to the detailed lineage viewer in Manta, providing Purview users with access to a more comprehensive lineage view compared to what is provided by the Purview UI.
Key Benefits of MPP Connector:
Comprehensive Visibility: Gain full visibility into data assets and lineage relationships, facilitating improved data quality, compliance assurance, impact analysis, and understanding data architectures for cloud migration.
Streamlined Governance: Facilitate effective governance initiatives for enhanced data management, contributing to reduced costs and risks while promoting regulatory compliance.
Scalability: Scale data lineage capabilities to meet evolving organizational needs efficiently, enabling enhanced business agility and adaptability to changing data environments.
Satya Bolli, Chairman of Prolifics, emphasizes, “Our collaboration with Manta equips clients with innovative approaches to leverage data for decision-making and enhanced business value.”
With Manta and Prolifics, you’ll always know what’s happening with your data.

Our annual North America Sales Kickoff in March 2024 brought together everyone from our executive leadership team to our sales, engineering, innovation, and delivery teams. It was a collaborative effort where every voice mattered. Seriously, “everyone” in attendance had the opportunity to speak. But for time’s sake, let’s review some key insights from Prolifics’ executive leadership team.
Preparing for the Journey
At Prolifics, our core values—like innovation, accountability, and trust—guide everything we do. Satya Bolli, our esteemed Chairman & CEO says, “We don’t settle for mediocrity; we strive for excellence, constantly challenging one another to improve.” Satya reminds us to stay true to our values and strive for excellence every day. Every morning before his run, Satya completes a set of dynamic stretches to prepare for the body for physical activity.
Much like Satya’s pre-run exercises, where dynamic stretches prepare him for the journey ahead, we exercise our core values to fortify our company’s foundation.
Satya’s challenge to us is simple: How can we be truly admired unless we do something extraordinary?
His words remind us that what sets us apart isn’t just what we do, but how we do it. It’s about embodying a mindset of continuous improvement and pushing boundaries.
Our passion for innovation drives us forward. We’re not satisfied with the status quo; we’re always seeking new ways to innovate and disrupt the industry. Whether it’s developing cutting-edge solutions, leveraging emerging technologies, or reimagining processes, innovation is at the heart of everything we do.
But innovation doesn’t happen in a vacuum. It requires collaboration—across teams, departments, and geographies. We believe that the best ideas come from diverse perspectives, and we actively seek out input from all corners of our organization.
Looking Forward
As we look ahead to FY25 and beyond, our commitment to excellence remains unwavering. Kirsten Craft, our esteemed CRO, emphasizes our core mission of client success: “We do what we do to help our customers succeed.” She stresses the importance of prioritizing customer satisfaction and ensuring it remains central to our efforts.
Despite our smaller size compared to competitors, Kirsten emphasizes our strengths: “We have clients who love us. We have more talent, investment, and passion than our competitors.”
Our recent achievements are paving the way for us to serve clients in new and smarter ways at any point on their digital transformation journey. Kirsten notes that many CIOs are focusing on driving app modernization, with cloud playing a crucial role. Despite challenges such as customers still in data centers and experiencing cloud shock, Kirsten reminds us to look at challenges as an opportunity to grow and try new things.
She reassures that Prolifics is prepared to assist with these challenges, leveraging our expertise in FinOps to help clients navigate cloud spend efficiently and mitigate any cloud shock they may encounter.
A heartfelt shoutout to the White Rock Center of Hope for an incredible day of volunteering! It was an honor to be a part of your mission to support our East Dallas neighbors. Together, we made a real impact – from lending a hand with food and clothing to empowering those in need.
Kirsten’s remarks inspire us to continue prioritizing customer success, leveraging our strengths, and driving positive outcomes for both our clients and our organization. She reaffirms our identity as the driving force behind meaningful change: “I know how hard you all work. We’re the people that make things happen.“
Making Things Happen
Our IT leadership team is on board as we actively seek ways to enhance productivity, save costs, and accelerate the journey of customer and employee experiences through innovation.
Greg Hodgkinson, our CTO and Head of Engineering, underscores the exceptional capabilities of our Prolifics engineering teams, emphasizing that we have all the necessary ingredients to achieve success. He highlights our commitment to continuous reinvention, particularly through AI and digital innovation, stating, “We’re helping our clients (and our Prolifics family) reinvent business, customer experience, and productivity through AI and innovation.”
Anant Gupta, our COO, stresses the importance of AI in our work. He highlights how using AI and our unique technology ensures that our solutions are reliable and efficient every time. This means our customers can count on us to deliver consistently excellent results. “It’s about making their lives easier and helping them achieve their goals with confidence.”
Delivering Value, Faster
In our delivery process, we prioritize excellence at every stage. We offer various options as proof of delivery to our customers and streamline their processes and governance models. Ajay Malgaonkar, Head of Global Delivery, emphasizes the importance of delivering tangible business value from the outset, focusing on solving clients’ problems and maximizing their benefits. Our use of IP and accelerators further expedites the delivery process, enabling us to meet and exceed client expectations.
As we navigate the future, these principles serve as guiding lights, propelling us toward meaningful change and transformation.
Partnerships and Speaker Appreciation
We extend our sincerest thanks to our IBM speakers for their invaluable contributions and unwavering support. Our partnerships are vital to our success at Prolifics. They expand our capabilities and enable us to deliver exceptional value to our clients.
Rick Bjorck, VP, Ecosystem, IBM Americas, fosters collaboration and innovation, driving strategic partnerships that empower us to deliver cutting-edge solutions.
Madison Gooch, VP, IBM watsonx, brings expertise in AI and cognitive technologies, shaping our approach to innovation and digital transformation.
Tushar Bajaj, VP, IBM FinOps, AIOps & Automation Sales, guides us in navigating complex challenges, optimizing cloud spend efficiency for our clients.

International Women’s Day (IWD) 2024 is Friday, March 8, and is “a global celebration of the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women.” IWD marks both the progress made in gender equality and the work that still remains.
This year’s theme is “Inspire Inclusion” – meaning to celebrate diversity and empowerment not only on IWD, but throughout the year. Per the IWD site:
“When we inspire others to understand and value women’s inclusion, we forge a better world. And when women themselves are inspired to be included, there’s a sense of belonging, relevance, and empowerment. Collectively, let’s forge a more inclusive world for women.”
Women in technology has long been a subject of attention and study and is certainly important to a company like Prolifics. Current statistics have women making up about a third of the tech-related workforce; at Prolifics that number is higher, with more than 40 percent. So, staying with the IWD theme of inspiring inclusion, we asked several of the inspiring women here at Prolifics the following: “What advice would you give to a woman who wants to be successful in a tech company?”
“Learn as much as you can, volunteer to lead activities (no matter how small) and give 200% to everything you do.”
– Kirsten Craft, Chief Revenue Officer – North America
“If you’re a woman aiming to make your mark in the tech world, here’s a tip: focus on mastering a particular area and become the expert everyone turns to. The tech landscape is always on the move, evolving at lightning speed, so being known for a unique set of skills can truly set you apart. Consider it your personal brand of magic – it not only boosts your value within your current team but also puts you on the radar across the industry. This approach involves a commitment to never stop learning, seizing every opportunity to enhance your abilities, and keeping your finger on the pulse of the latest trends and developments in your specialty.”
– Eva Khalil, Competency Lead – Integration & Platforms
“‘Build relationships and stay curious.’ The work that I do is fundamentally about supporting each other. So being able to tap into the relationships I have built is invaluable, especially when facing challenges/obstacles.”
– Amrith Kaur-Maldonado, Product Support Manager
“Do not let the ever-changing pace of technology intimidate you. As you learn, store your knowledge as, ‘How can this help my employees, my customers, or me?”’
Lyn White, Senior Manager – Global Software Sales
