New cloud-based software delivers medical imaging providers effective data archiving and recovery services.

Intelerad Medical Systems (Montreal, ON, Canada), a developer of medical imaging picture archiving and communication systems (PACS), radiology information systems (RIS), and workflow solutions, recently released Nuage Disaster Recovery Services, which provides hosted data archiving and disaster recovery systems for hospitals and ambulatory imaging providers.

“As a leader in distributed radiology solutions, providing optimal data security for customers has long been a primary objective for us,” said Rick Rubin, chief engineering officer, Intelerad. “With Nuage, we are able to provide medical imaging centers with reliable data archiving and recovery services, all within a flexible, scalable solution.”

Built on Intelerad’s Nuage cloud imaging platform by Intelerad, Nuage Disaster Recovery Services combine the security of remote cloud-replicated data with the speed of online storage, and the protection of traditional on-site backups, all smoothly integrated with existing Intelerad environments.

Nuage Disaster Recovery Services are implemented with expert guidance by Intelerad’s services team, utilizing the latest in redundancy best practices and risk assessments. Nuage is supported and managed by Intelerad’s infrastructure and PACS engineers, with 24/7 monitoring and proactive alerts to information technology (IT) departments of any infrastructure failures.

“We designed Nuage around strategically located data centers that are rated to 99.999% up-time, which gives IT teams peace of mind while safely minimizing costs,” said Mr. Rubin. “Furthermore, given the service’s scalability, not only are customers provided a reliable infrastructure, but they’re able to dynamically expand their use of the service as their practice and data volumes grow unpredictably.”

Nuage Disaster Recovery Services come with flexible pricing strategies that match the changing cost and infrastructure needs of imaging providers. Organizations, in doing so, can decrease their risks and IT costs by planning for the protection they need, but paying only for the service they use.

Intelerad Medical Systems is a developer of distributed radiology, concentrating on PACS, RIS, and workflow systems for healthcare organizations.
