New infrastructure models need to match the emerging needs of the healthcare industry. The growth in healthcare IoT and the vast amount of new data generated needs new infrastructure with capabilities that can accommodate advanced approaches in medicine, patient care, disease diagnostics and regulatory compliance. Further, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) serving healthcare customers are challenged by the myriad of possibilities for integrated configurations and compliance requirements associated with certifying a configuration for medical applications.
The healthcare new edge platform breaks this rigidity using software-defined and near real-time computing features. By offering known good configurations, OEMs can focus on healthcare applications instead of identifying a compliant hardware configuration. These new features make healthcare infrastructure agile, responsive and highly integrated while reliably supporting multiple edge devices, applications and services at scale.
Benefits of the Healthcare New Edge Platform
