Healthcare IT Today: What Tools are Needed to Better Handle Cloud in Healthcare?
For Healthcare IT Today, CloudWave’s Chief Technology Officer Matt Donahue weighed in on the essential tools for effectively managing cloud infrastructure in healthcare:
“Managing cloud infrastructure in healthcare requires a range of tools. These include tools to gain visibility into the usage, consumption, and performance of cloud resources. Financial analysis tools are crucial for tracking and optimizing cloud spending, as unexpected costs can arise. Security tools, including user access provisioning and audit logs, are also essential to protect patient data and ensure regulatory compliance. Additionally, backup and recovery solutions in the cloud are important for data protection and disaster recovery, as they often offer cost-effective options compared to traditional backup systems.”
