Boeing, with more than 200,000 employees, produces several hundred airplanes a year; the information that needs to be managed and shared is of the order of several peta bytes and the collaboration required spans not only Boeing employees but enterprises around the world. It is said that Boeing accounts for 10% of all the data on the internet. When top- notch industrial products are used in the Boeing company, often the sheer scale, volume, diversity and distribution of data requires that the IT products be modified or extended with advanced solutions to scale up. Researchers at the lab collaborate with the top IT vendor companies, and with universities and research labs around the world.
