Simplicity, Performance and Cost Savings Let
Healthcare Organizations Focus on New Technology Innovations to
Deliver Better Care
Nutanix (NASDAQ:NTNX), a leader in enterprise cloud computing,
announced the ongoing success of healthcare providers streamlining
their IT infrastructure with the Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Platform.
Using Nutanix solutions, healthcare providers can gain the
flexibility and management simplicity typical of public cloud
infrastructure with the security and control they need at
significant cost savings. Through a more streamlined datacenter
infrastructure, these organizations can support new technology
innovations and initiatives which can increase service levels for
those who really matter - healthcare practitioners and their
patients.
As healthcare professionals increasingly rely on technology to
deliver better care, it becomes critical to have the right
datacenter infrastructure approach to support the compute and
storage needs of healthcare applications. By natively converging
silos of individually managed compute and storage onto the
web-scale architecture-based Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Platform,
healthcare IT teams have tackled demanding performance,
scalability, and availability challenges to help successfully meet
compliance requirements.
“Our regional cloud was built using a lot of disparate
infrastructure with racks and racks of traditional servers and
storage systems. With Nutanix, we’re able to manage our
infrastructure with a team of just two people, down from 12, and as
we grow or have further compute and storage needs, we won’t have to
make major infrastructure investments to grow our environment for
critical server workloads. By moving to Nutanix, we reduced six
racks of legacy hardware into less than one rack worth of space,
providing us with space, heating, cooling and electricity savings,
but also giving us a lot more flexibility for growing our
footprint.” - Sanjay Maru, Director of Enterprise Architecture at
St. Joseph Health
By making infrastructure practically invisible and lowering
total costs of ownership (TCO), Nutanix has enabled its healthcare
customers to focus on applications such as electronic health
records (EHR) from Epic, Cerner, Meditech and ChipSoft, and picture
and archiving systems (PACS) from Fujifilm, Merge PACS, and
IntelliRad, as well as initiatives such as bring your own device
(BYOD) and healthcare standards such as HIPAA and HITECH.
“At Mission Health, we deliver our Cerner Millennium EMR
applications using Citrix XenApp and XenDesktop and were looking
for a long-term partner to help us consolidate our datacenter
infrastructure and deliver operational efficiencies. We were blown
away by the performance and reduced TCO of the Nutanix Enterprise
Cloud Platform when compared to other legacy and hyperconverged
offerings. We anticipate the capital and operational savings we
have realized will continue across many more workloads in the near
future. We are excited to migrate 3500+ XenApp and 200+ XenDesktop
clinicians onto the Nutanix platform, and plan to expand the
deployment for our remote office clinics and the future expansion
of our "tap and go" clinician environments which include Imprivata,
Citrix and others." - Joseph Wolgram, CTO, Mission Health
In addition to specialized healthcare applications, Nutanix
customers use the Enterprise Cloud Platform for a variety of other
use cases, including application virtualization, big data workloads
and VDI with Citrix XenApp and XenDesktop and VMware Horizon View.
The applications can be added by healthcare IT teams over time
without the shortcomings of legacy infrastructure deployments like
overprovisioning or performance unpredictability.
Healthcare customers also benefit from the Nutanix Services
organization, as well as its world class support team, which has
been recognized with one of the highest NPS scores in the industry
for the past four years. Through its Services organization, Nutanix
provides healthcare organizations peace of mind for mission
critical environments through unique programs such as VDI
Assurance, which practically eliminates the risk of sizing and
scaling Nutanix for VDI workloads.
“One of the factors that really clinched the decision was
Nutanix VDI Assurance. Our management team was sold by the fact
that Nutanix guaranteed the level of performance at the requested
session count for our Epic EMR VDI workloads. CNE is able to
securely provide Clinicians the ability to be anywhere on any
device (BYOD or remote) and expect faster access to working data in
the clinical setting. Nutanix offers that consistent desktop user
experience. Nutanix allows us to standardize and consolidate the
complex desktop, server and storage environment into a unified
platform-improving our ability to support our end users and
technology. We currently see over 650 active current sessions
running with a total of over 950 available sessions.” - Keith Lee,
Manager, Care New England
