Healthcare.

Challenge: Replicating on-premises infrastructure to operate in a legacy fashion in the cloud means high operational costs. 

Solution: Economies of scale in cloud allow businesses to pay only for what they need. Plus, our zero-upfront model lets business shift costs back to when you’re realising the benefits.

Challenge: Although encrypting data at rest and in transit is common practice, hospitals handle sensitive personal data that might be vulnerable during processing.

Solution: This is where confidential computing comes into play. Confidential computing is achieved by cloud providers by using various hardware and software technologies that allow for the creation of secure enclaves or trusted execution environments (TEEs). These enclaves are isolated from the rest of the system and provide a protected area for data processing, ensuring data confidentiality, integrity and privacy are maintained.

Challenge: Applications and services designed decades ago relies on deprecated or obsolete components, and drain resources.

Solution: Our experts make clever improvements that cut licence and capacity costs, reduce technical and security risks, and expand functionality.

Challenge: ICT departments of hospitals may have little to no experience with operating cloud services.

Solution: We support the creation of a cloud center of excellence (CCoE) to get you started on the journey. We also provide training and best practices to enable your journey.

Challenge: Staff retention is a significant challenge in the health sector, often leaving a gap in knowledge or process.

Solution: We can alleviate the operational efforts of running and maintaining services in the cloud by providing workforce, mentorship, and proven practices.

Challenge: Increases in security threats and compliance requirements mean staying secure and compliant has become a burden for hospital IT teams.

Solution: Nordcloud not only provides experts in governance, risk, compliance, and security, but also ensures and maintains secure and compliant landing zones in the cloud.

Challenge: Deploying and integrating software services is time consuming if no automation is available, which is often the case in the healthcare IT operations.

Solution: Our dedicated cloud-native services and best practices drive deployment automation, while others deliver transparency and security of the deployed interfaces.

Challenge: Resilience is a life-or-death matter in hospitals, but suboptimal management risks business-critical applications and services.

Solution: Cloud services update and replace components more easily. And, with the availability of cloud services throughout different regions, resilience is better ensured.

Challenge: Getting starting with cloud can be intimidating given the breadth and complexity of your infrastructure and application estate – as well as the range of available services.

Solution: We give you a secure cloud foundation – a scalable asset that gives you quick wins around enhanced disaster recovery and cloud back-up services. At the same time, you have a platform for building sustainable value as you expand capabilities, use cases and skills.

Challenge: Hospitals have to keep pace with evolving practices and technologies. Components and tools that were once the trend are not anymore.

Solution: We help IT teams adopt cloud in an agile way, to better react to the business domains, shifting from naysayer to facilitator, powered by cloud native capabilities like AI.
