DataCore, the leader in Parallel Powered Software-Defined Storage and Hyper-converged
Virtual SAN solutions, today announced that it
will be participating in the 2016 HIMSS Conference & Exhibition, February 29 - March 4, 2016, at the Sands Expo and Convention Center in
Las Vegas, NV. More than 40,000 healthcare industry professionals are expected
to attend to discuss health IT issues and view innovative solutions designed to
transform healthcare.
The
skyrocketing costs to achieve continuous data availability, cope with
exponential data growth, and provide timely data access rank among the three
most pressing challenges facing healthcare IT organizations. Regulatory
mandates such as HIPAA and HITECH compound the volume of data and the urgency
to streamline storage practices.
Furthermore, due
to the overwhelming amount of data generated from extensive medical imaging
(e.g. high resolution, 3D color PACS images, etc.) as well as the transition to
storage-intensive electronic health records, today there are an incredible
amount of databases in the healthcare industry. DataCore SANsymphony offers a
complete, centrally-managed software solution that can scale out across the
entire storage infrastructure and stretch over multiple sites to pool and
optimize capacity and provide the highest levels of business continuance
protection. DataCore software is deployed at over 30,000 sites around the world
and protects over 1,000 healthcare organizations and major medical centers,
including those at NY Presbyterian Medical Center and Mount Sinai who overcame
disaster scenarios with DataCore.
Additionally,
DataCore's solutions dramatically improve productivity and lower the cost of ownership.
DataCore's software and its parallel I/O technology has achieved the fastest
response times in the industry and the world's best price-performance. The
validated results prove it is possible to achieve anywhere from 3x to 10x
faster application performance and run more workloads on the same platforms -
which is a remarkable achievement in an industry where patients and providers
rely on their critical applications and how rapidly they respond.
On March 2nd
at 1:45 - 2:15 PM, Ibrahim Rahmani, director of product and solutions marketing
at DataCore, will be presenting "Protecting Your Healthcare Applications and
Data from a Disaster," (Session ID: KC77) at the Disaster Preparedness Center. Whether it's complying with
healthcare regulations, deploying applications, or dealing with rapid growth,
data is at the core of all operational and service functions, and therefore
must always be accessible. During his presentation, Rahmani will discuss how to
create multiple layers of protection for data to ensure it is always available,
even when a disaster impacts the IT infrastructure. He will also cover
DataCore's revolutionary parallel I/O technology and how it has shattered the
world record for price-performance.
The annual HIMSS
event helps health IT professionals find the right solutions for their
organizations. Additional conference education
sessions include preconference symposia on connected health, cybersecurity,
interoperability, nursing informatics, patient engagement, physicians' IT and
more. More than 300 peer-reviewed sessions, including workshops and
roundtables, round out education offerings at HIMSS16.
