Digital Health records – An Ocean of data with uncertainties. Running large Electronic Health data workloads with EPIC EHR on Azure – A template for #digitalhealth driven healthcare organizations.

In their #digitaltransformation journey, large hospitals and health systems primarily use epic software in the U.S. to store, access, organize, and share electronic health records. More than 305 million patients have a current electronic record in Epic. Healthcare providers use Epic because it provides personalized and detailed healthcare records with significantly reduced errors.

EPIC software uses Cache, which has evolved from 1970s as a robust data system that could have any combination of tens of thousands of data points, from medications to past surgeries. Caché makes quick work of this broad yet sparse data set faster and more reliably than other databases.
For the techies, Caché is a high-performance Object Database — with Relational Access.

Azure Large Instances are dedicated large compute instances without a virtualization layer and complete control over the OS to serve several high-value, mission-critical applications. It offers high-performance storage appropriate to the application without wasting capacity.

#microsoftazure has taken this powerful combination of EPIC EHR on Azure Large Instances to serve Large data workloads as a package. It would be interesting to see after this implementation on how this solution shapes up for the #healthcare sector where companies always swim and dive on this EHR data ocean with threats of security and compliance like sharks.

P.S: Microsoft’s announcement regarding this on the comments.
