Danaher delivers a cloud native solution to allow dentists to remotely and securely access patient data

The obstacles they faced

With thousands of dental customers, Danaher wanted to update the way it managed patient data. Danaher created a line of cloud-connected medical devices for dental imaging and collaboration. The company approached Onica by Rackspace Technology to create a cloud-native solution that would:

• Store patient data in a HIPAA-compliant manner
• Synchronize data in real-time with dental practices around the world
• Liberate patient information and x-ray images in the cloud
• Offer a hybrid approach to connect physical-world dental practices with cloud-based services
• Take advantage of DevOps concepts to prevent costly human errors due to a complex deployment environment

What we achieved together

The newly deployed, cloud-connected products currently support thousands of dentists across the globe, providing them with a safe and effective mechanism to remotely access and back up their data. Other results achieved:

• The power of the cloud enables modern collaboration and reinforces Danaher Imaging Technologies as a technology leader in its industry
• The solution has been independently and successfully assessed for HIPAA and security compliance
• Deployment of new software environments or updates to existing environments are greatly simplified, resulting in more successful deployments
• Zero downtime of the cloud applications due to the self-healing nature of the environment

Onica by Rackspace Technology now serves as Danaher’s operations center for their cloud-based dental imaging products, 24x7x365.
