Transforming legacy infrastructure into a modern, compliant, high-performance data center environment.
View websiteA mid-sized healthcare network operating across multiple facilities in the United States, serving thousands of patients daily. The organization required a robust IT infrastructure to support critical electronic medical records (EMR) systems while maintaining strict HIPAA compliance standards.
The healthcare provider faced multiple critical issues with their aging on-premises infrastructure:
We implemented a comprehensive data center modernization strategy:
We executed a phased migration of 186 physical servers to a highly available VMware vSphere cluster. This virtualization strategy reduced the physical footprint while improving resource utilization and flexibility. Each workload was carefully assessed and migrated with minimal disruption to clinical operations.
A robust Veeam backup solution was deployed with a 1-hour Recovery Point Objective (RPO), ensuring minimal data loss in any failure scenario. The disaster recovery infrastructure was designed to meet HIPAA requirements with regular testing protocols to validate recovery capabilities.
The legacy storage systems were replaced with a NetApp unified SAN, providing high-performance, scalable storage with advanced data management capabilities. This infrastructure supports the demanding I/O requirements of EMR systems while offering efficient data protection features.
Network segmentation was implemented to isolate sensitive patient data systems. Zero-trust access controls ensure that only authorized personnel can access critical resources. All security measures were designed to meet and exceed HIPAA compliance requirements.
A comprehensive 24/7 monitoring solution provides real-time visibility into system health and performance. Automated patching processes ensure systems remain secure and up-to-date without requiring extensive manual intervention.
Reduction in hardware costs
Uptime achieved
HIPAA compliance achieved
EMR performance improvement
This data center modernization project demonstrates how strategic infrastructure transformation can deliver both immediate operational benefits and long-term value. By consolidating aging physical infrastructure into a modern virtualized environment, the healthcare provider achieved significant cost savings while dramatically improving system reliability and performance.
The implementation of robust backup and disaster recovery capabilities, combined with enhanced security measures, ensures the organization can now meet stringent HIPAA compliance requirements with confidence. Most importantly, the 60% improvement in EMR performance directly translates to better clinical workflows and enhanced patient care delivery.
