Survey Of Cloud Computing And Healthcare

The Cloud is one of the best options for small businesses in Healthcare. With the right set-up, you may pass-through all of your local connections, including x-ray machines, directly through to the cloud in a protected HIPAA compliant fashion. This gives you incredible flexibility and is a completely hands-off approach in compliance with all materials that are in the cloud. ClearData, a leader in security and cloud technologies should provide you with a server to store all data, virtual desktops for each of the employees, and handle all security-related tasks for the cloud environment (SIEM, Log Analysis, Security Events, Management, Vulnerabilities, Anti-Virus, and patching). The Cloud quote contains two sets of services, a server and virtual desktop environments for each of the employees. The server and desktops

A critical lack of availability is negatively impacting healthcare, because Information Technology (IT) lack of control over cloud computing, leading to more issues involving availability, reliability, integrity and confidentiality (Kuo, 2011). Availability is a rising risk in the healthcare fields for Information Technology (IT) management using cloud computing (Kuo, 2011). Despite the hype of cloud computing advantages, research confirmed 58% of firms using the cloud have no idea if the cloud is within the U.S. and forty-two% do not know where the cloud servers are placed (Turner, 2013).

Cloud computing is an emerging model where users can gain access to their applications from anywhere through their connected devices. A simplified user interface makes the infrastructure supporting the applications transparent to users. The applications reside in massively-scalable data centers where compute resources can be dynamically provisioned and shared to achieve significant economies of scale. A strong service management platform results in near-zero incremental management costs when more IT resources are added to the cloud. The proliferation of smart mobile devices, high speed wireless connectivity, and rich browser-based Web 2.0 interfaces has made the network-based cloud computing model not only practical but

Healthcare Provider Organizations in the United States are going through a major restructuring process. New regulations are being imposed, new standards are being created to adopt, and financial pressures are increasing for healthcare institutions. In the midst of this whirlpool of changes, healthcare leaders are constantly looking for befitting solutions that can empower them with instruments that sustain the system against any turbulance and help leaders guide their organizations towards success. In this turbulent journey, information technology has come up to assist the leaders with the novel concept of cloud computing. The purpose of this article is to

Motivated by the success of other industries and the rapidly evolving health information technology landscape, healthcare organizations are investigating and evaluating cloud solutions. Cost savings, flexibility, performance and scalability are some of the key benefits other highly regulated institutions, such as financial services and government, have enjoyed by moving applications and workloads to the cloud.

Services such as, data storage and security, are provided by cloud computing over the internet. In cloud computing, users can pay for what they consume (Bisong & Rahman, An Overview of the Securtiy Concerns in Enterprise Cloud Computing, 2011). Cloud computing is an emerging information technology, which can make it easier for the users to manage their data. Cloud computing allows businesses to expand as new cloud-based models are being discussed and implemented as solutions (Bamiah & Brohi, 2011).

HealthCare Industry is witnessing a surge in the adoption of cloud computing and software on-demand is expected to bring about a revolution in the healthcare IT market. Meanwhile, hospitals are expected to deliver more while reducing

There is a crucial need for further research relating to cloud computing in the healthcare industries, because statistics show few case studies by researchers to improve the impact relevant to cloud computing services affecting the availability of healthcare resources (Kuo, 2011). Recent studies indicate approximately 75% of the healthcare chief information technology officers are anticipating moving to the cloud computing era (Kuo, 2011). Cloud computing is an internet based method where information and resources can be shared with different devices. Improvements have been marginal and cloud computing is not being viewed as an alternative (Griebel et al., 2015). However, such leaps pose significant threats to organizations especially when it comes to health data. The proposed study aims at adding knowledge to

Many of the techniques of cloud computing, or cloud networking as it often was called, were developed in the 1950s at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Bell Laboratories, University of Maryland, and a few other research facilities, with application to satellite imagery, wire-photo standards conversion, medical imaging, videophone, character recognition, and photograph enhancement.[1] The cost of processing was fairly high, however, with the computing equipment of that era. That changed in the 1970s, when digital image processing proliferated as cheaper computers and dedicated hardware became available. Images then could be processed in real time, for some dedicated problems such as television standards conversion. As general-purpose computers became faster, they started to take over the role of dedicated hardware for all but the most specialized and computer-intensive operations.

ABSTRACT- Cloud computing is a type of computing, instead of having local servers or personal devices to handle applications it trusts on sharing computing resources. Cloud services can help the healthcare industry to access and manage health records effectively

This research project will provide an overview of the challenges of existing healthcare information system and define how the cloud computing can be the possible solution for healthcare information system.

In the ever-changing world of business communication, the demand for instantaneous information has given rise to a new market, focused exclusively on the creation and advancement of dynamic network systems that bring millions of individuals and businesses together through an interconnected system of servers known as “the cloud”. As defined by IBM, cloud computing is the delivery of on-demand computing resources over the internet on a pay-for-use basis. This concept allows companies to harness incredible amounts of processing power, power that was inconceivable a mere decade ago. As more and more companies have adopted and integrated these systems of cloud computing into their business

instead of occupying all the available space given on a personal computer, a user can

Cloud Computing is one of the most popular computing technology. It allows organizations to use resources like hardware, software and IT applications as a service through the internet or web without physically holding these resources internally. So, organization need not worry about the maintenance of these resources. These cloud applications and services can be accessed not only by PCs but also using mobile devices, such as smart phones and tablets (Dutta, Peng, & Choudhary, 2013). Furthermore, this model also provides on demand supply of resources on pay-as-you-go basis. These advantages make cloud computing more popular among other technologies.

Cloud computing is a topic of which much is assumed. The average person recognizes the term “cloud computing” as having to do with their storage from their iPad or iPhone on the online storage area which syncs their Apple devices to their computer. This common cloud is called the iCloud. That is where common knowledge ends about this topic. However, upon further exploration, a deeper understanding is gained with greater explanation, and it is realized that cloud computing is something that is used all of the time on many levels of everyday technology. While the terminology remains cryptic to the mind of most people, the concepts behind the practical uses of cloud computing become quite clear. It is relatable and understandable. Upon this revelation, the iCloud is recognized as the tip of the preverbal iceberg when speaking about cloud computing. It is important to discuss and further understand the many types of cloud computing as well as the various applications to life through technology. This affects how information is stored online, computers are protected, information is secured, emails are processed, and many other factors that are taken for granted in the world of technology. Cloud computing is a general term used to describe how information is stored, utilized, and accessed over the internet. There is no cloud, but the word cloud gives the connotation of an abstract place which is known to exist but is too vast to touch or contain (Griffith,
