Accelerate Healthcare Optimization with a Multi-Cloud Approach Multi-Cloud Strategy | The Design Accelerate Healthcare Optimization with a Multi-Cloud Approach Seventy-five percent of healthcare organizations believe the deployment of a cloud operating model will lead to improved patient care.1 And, while the deployment of a cloud strategy has the capacity to deliver, insufficient governance, shadow IT, and cloud sprawl are increasing risk, complexity, and cost. Organizations need to rethink how they manage their cloud portfolio, bringing together private, hybrid, public, and specialty cloud services into a single comprehensive, multi-cloud operating approach. Multi-cloud adoption in healthcare is nearing the tipping point 26% Today 65% 90% % In 12 42 months of healthcare of healthcare The average percentage Remove cloud silos organizations are organizations of healthcare workloads Multi-cloud technologies like using cloud services will use multiple deployed in the cloud elastic data platforms, consistent today.2 cloud services and versus on-premise is application platforms, and cloud- platforms by 2021.3 expected to nearly native standards facilitate secure double in just one year.1 data sharing and interoperability.

Operational What organizational or operational challenges might exist—such as having to meet specific regulatory or clinical workflow requirements? The Seven Layers of a Multi-Cloud Framework for Healthcare Multi-cloud is not a place, but rather an operating model—one that should be treated with the same rigor as designing other operating models. Healthcare organizations must plan for and execute against seven critical layers or steps to enable both clinical and business workloads to be securely stored, accessed, and shared in a reliable, resilient environment. PLAN (STEPS 1 TO 7) SELF-SERVICE PORTAL SOFTWARE- This is your app store, where end users DEFINED can gain access to needed applications Software-defined without needing to file service tickets.

    IaaS Performance and Value Analysis A study of performance among 14 top public cloud infrastructure providers By Cloud Spectator and the Cloud Advisory Council October 15, 2013 Table of Contents Executive Summary 2 Overview 2 Findings 2 Experiment Information 3 Price-Performance Value: The CloudSpecs Score 3 CLIENT Configurations and Costs 3 SERVER Configurations and Costs 4 Additional Server Information 4 Notes 4 General System Performance 5 About the Test 5 Results 5 CPU Performance 7 About the Test 7 Results 7 RAM Performance 9 About the Test 9 Results 9 Disk Performance 11 About the Test 11 Results 11 Internal Network Performance 13 About the Test 13 Results 13 Conclusion 15 About Cloud Spectator & Cloud Advisory Council 15 Contact Information 15 Copyright Cloud Spectator, LLC 2013 and Cloud Advisory Council | Non-commercial Use Only 1 Executive Summary Overview Transparency in virtual server performance is a crucial component for vendor selection. As listed on Table 2.3 within the Experiment Information (Additional Server Information) section, hardware varies among providers; thus, performance is not standardized nor guaranteed. This document reports the performance information of 14 of the largest Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) providers in the United States. While many of the providers serve clients globally with data centers worldwide, Cloud Spectator and the Cloud Advisory Council conducted this study exclusively in each provider’s US data center. Running across a period of 10 consecutive days, the information in this report detail performance results on each provider’s system, including component-level tests measuring CPU, disk, RAM, and internal network. Performance data is related with cost of servers to acquire a price-performance value index, which is used to compare value among providers based on the results.

  • Magic Quadrant for Cloud-Enabled Managed Hosting, North America 28 July 2015 | ID:G00269143
    (http://www.gartner.com/home) LICENSED FOR DISTRIBUTION Magic Quadrant for Cloud-Enabled Managed Hosting, North America 28 July 2015 | ID:G00269143 Analyst(s): Douglas Toombs, Bob Gill, Mike Dorosh Summary Cloud-enabled managed hosting brings cloudlike consumption and provisioning attributes to the traditional managed hosting market. It represents an evolution of a mature market in which the wide variety of offerings and capabilities means vendors must be chosen carefully. Market Definition/Description The cloud-enabled managed hosting (CEMH) market deals in standardized, productized hosting offerings that combine a cloud-enabled system infrastructure (CESI) platform — comprising compute, network and storage hardware owned and operated by a service provider — with cloud management platform software to facilitate self-service and rapid provisioning with managed services (see "Technology Overview for Cloud-Enabled System Infrastructure" ; note that this document has been archived; some of its content may not reflect current conditions ). The infrastructure platform may be located in a service provider's data center, or optionally at the customer's data center, but, either way, it requires standardized deployment across all customers and uses a single code base that has been pre-engineered and/or predeployed by the provider prior to customer sign-up. At minimum, a service provider must supply server OS management services, including guest OS instances when virtualization is used. The provider may optionally supply other managed and professional services relating to the infrastructure's deployment and operation. Cloud-enabled managed hosting allows only limited customization. It is sold on a stand-alone basis, with no requirement to bundle it with — for example — application development, application maintenance or data center outsourcing (DCO) services.
