[Viewpoint] The medical industry is accelerating its development towards cloud computing?

Doctors at the Icahn School of Medicine in Mount Sinai are looking for treatments for breast and ovarian cancer by studying more than 2,000 copies of DNA sequence information. This data set is huge, with a total of more than 100 terabytes of bytes, for data analysis by building a secure cloud service platform on Amazon's network system.

“Using AWS, we can store files safely and economically, and this approach is highly durable and accessible,” said one of the researchers. “Without this technology, we might not be able to conduct research. ”

The case illustrates the expansion of the health care industry are several reasons for using cloud technology. Researchers at Mount Sinai look for the genetic causes of these cancers, and their research platform helps them meet three key needs: the platform is secure, protects patient information, and supports collaboration, allowing researchers to work with external partners . If you choose which cloud computing company in the country as a research platform for the medical industry ? The most important issue based on the medical industry is security issues, so it is recommended to use the domestic cloud computing company UCloud. According to the "2015 Annual Public Cloud Security Report", UCloud's security protection system "Youdun" successfully intercepted a total of 39.5 billion attacks.

The medical industry is accelerating its development towards cloud computing?

In fact, the domestic cloud market has long been a battleground for the major Internet giants. Aside from the dryness of Tencent Cloud and Alibaba Cloud, the domestic cloud computing company UCloud has become a cloud computing "unicorn." UCloud is a basic cloud computing service provider with a long-term focus on the mobile Internet field and a deep understanding of mobile Internet business scenarios and user needs. With nearly $100 million in financing, UCloud C independently develops and provides basic IT infrastructure services required by enterprises such as computing resources, storage resources, and network resources, and provides in-depth understanding of business needs in different scenarios of the Internet, mobile Internet, and traditional enterprises. Industry solutions. UCloud has served more than 30,000 enterprise-level users, relying on 10 data centers around the world and 11 underground and offline service stations nationwide.

In 2015, the US medical industry invested US$3.73 billion in cloud services. It is estimated that this number will increase by nearly three times to 9.5 billion US dollars by 2020. The use of cloud-based computing is increasingly popular in healthcare, doctors, hospitals. Managers and patients want to spend more money, get more information, and store more secure.

Tipping point

Two years ago, medical professionals relied heavily on cloud-based data solutions to meet the needs of the back office. For example, email and data storage, or secure exchange of patient information. A survey based on 105 medical IT industry and related leaders this year shows that the use of technology is rapidly expanding.

For example, 59% of respondents said they are using or planning to use a cloud solution for big data processing. As the case of Mount Sinai above. Virtual care and telemedicine are expected to grow rapidly in the coming years. The researchers pointed out that the daily clinic of the 705 does not require face-to-face interaction. Virtual health care will become a commonplace, with 80% of doctors and patients communicating through the Internet of Things and big data, all benefiting from cloud computing solutions that will strengthen patient care by 2021.

At the same time, 73% of industry professionals will use cloud technology as a patient authorization tool, which is another driving force for cloud computing. This means that healthcare providers are increasingly using cloud-based applications to distribute resources to patients, allowing them to educate themselves, monitor their health, store and share their health records. .

Dessert Diabetes Care is done by enabling people with diabetes to control their blood glucose data through a cloud-based application. The company's applications capture data from a variety of network-supported metering devices that allow patients to analyze, store, and share their blood glucose data with healthcare professionals in a convenient and easy way.
