Enabling uninterrupted access to key
information by physicians and staff
A private, non-profit, integrated healthcare system known for its top-ranked hospital and best-affiliated doctors provide critical care and comprehensive services to their patients. They constantly have to be sure that physicians and staff always have access to key information.

The Challenge
Due to the facility’s exponentially increasing data storage demands and their outdated storage systems causing major performance tailbacks, they needed to support the build-out of several new data centres to continue delivering the highest-quality care to its patients.
The approach
The organisation primarily needed a storage solution to support the build-out of several new data centres and launch a state-of-the-art EHR (Electronic health record). Additionally, two new data centres were created, bringing its number of data centres to four.
The Solution
The customer now relies on XtremIO implemented in all its data centres to handle business-critical workloads such as Microsoft SQL, Oracle applications, and databases which have been virtualised with VMware vSphere.
Dell EMC Isilon scale-out NAS storage was implemented to keep pace with its massive data growth of EHRs and home directories. The backup and recovery were provided by Dell EMC Data Domain, together with RecoverPoint for continuous replication and point-in-time recovery.
