Leading US Medical Facility Uses Non-Stop Hadoop to Dramatically Improve Patient Care and Save Countless Lives

WANdisco’s Unique Technology Running on Hortonworks Hadoop Data Platform to Enable Continuous Hadoop Big Data Availability for UCI Health Like healthcare organizations across the US, UCI Health relies on traditional data warehouse technology to support its Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system – its primary source of critical patient data used for making treatment decisions.  The EMR struggles with availability issues, as well as data timeliness and the volume and variety of data it can handle. UCI Health chose WANdisco’s Non-Stop Hadoop for Hortonworks to provide a single source for all types of patient data - images, video, audio and machine data, as well as continuous availability to completely eliminate unacceptable downtime in medical situations where a patient’s condition can change dramatically in minutes.  Click below to view a short video and learn more about this unique solution that promises to save countless lives and change the quality of health care for everyone.
