Challenge	Kingsway Hospitals, a new healthcare facility in Nagpur, Central India, needed to build its IT infrastructure from the ground up. The hospital required a robust and efficient Hospital Information Management System (HIMS) and Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) that could handle terabytes of patient data and medical imaging files. The systems needed to function independently and offer high-speed performance. The hospital also required a solution that could ensure zero downtime, enhanced data backup and disaster recovery, and maintain the highest levels of data security and privacy. The solution also needed to be flexible and scalable to accommodate the hospital's growth. Read More
About Customer	Kingsway Hospitals is a unit of SPANV Medisearch Life Sciences PL, promoted by the SMS group. Led by eminent doctors from Nagpur, Kingsway has plans to grow its presence and establish a national and global footprint, over time. They set about creating a multispecialty healthcare facility in Nagpur with a vision to provide affordable, quality healthcare facilities for every class of society. A new hospital meant that hospital infrastructure and IT operations had to be built from the ground up. The hospital is committed to offering the highest quality healthcare, at affordable rates to patients from all walks of life. Read More
Solution	HPE SimpliVity along with a flash-ready, shared HPE MSA SAN Storage was deployed as a holistic solution. The PACS server was hosted independently and connected directly to a SAN storage of 48 TB capacity. All other administrative and hospital applications were running on three HPE SimpliVity virtual machine nodes, which fulfilled both the memory and compute requirements. The solution was implemented in a phased manner, with hardware installation and VM setup completed before customer handover. The solution also included built-in data protection, replication, and disaster recovery features, and allowed for dynamic creation of new virtual machines on the existing server stack.
