By replacing legacy technology with an enterprise cloud, Tintri addresses the objectives of large healthcare organisations—including hospitals, clinics, pharmaceuticals and device manufacturers. Organisations that rapidly expand their data footprints and add new applications need the agility to spin up new projects quickly and scale fluidly. Many of these organisations also face strict security and compliance requirements.
For these reasons, healthcare companies are turning to Tintri to capture the agility of public cloud within the control of their data centre. That’s why six of the ten largest global pharmaceutical companies, as well as several medical and research centres, have purchased Tintri systems.
South Eastern Health and Social Care Trust, a provider of health and social services in Northern Ireland recently switched to Tintri improving its infrastructure through fast and secure access to virtual workloads.
Darren Henderson, ICT Services Manager for South Eastern Health and Social Care Trust commented: “VDI with SSO provides our healthcare practitioners with fast, instant access to the information they need to provide quality healthcare. Our staff can now walk up to any device, swipe their ID cards, and access their virtual desktops in under 7 seconds. When they move to new location, it takes seconds to switch the session to the new device. The performance of the VDI and SSO solution on Tintri is absolutely amazing.”
Dominion Diagnostics, a leading national laboratory that offers drug detection, prescription drug monitoring, and clinical blood testing services turned to Tintri to replace its legacy storage to accelerate monitoring and testing services.
“We are now running several different databases on the Tintri system,” said Jamie Nolen, senior network administrator at Dominion Diagnostics. “We are running all of our DB2, Oracle, and MS SQL databases on Tintri. Our DB2 database is the largest one at 3TB. All of our database VMs require high performance and Tintri delivers more IOPS than we need.”
“The healthcare industry is at a point where agility is at a premium. There is a growing rate of innovation in products and services, and patient expectation for access to information,” said Yael Zheng, chief marketing officer at Tintri. “To deliver competitive, quality care, healthcare organisations need to be able to move fast. And with Tintri, those organisations are spinning up new workloads in minutes, automating away complexity and serving an increasingly mobile workforce.”
“Healthcare organisations realise that infrastructure plays a critical role in their ability to deliver differentiated products, services and patient care,” said Bob Rossi, vice president CDW Healthcare. “With Tintri, they access enterprise cloud benefits: the agility to get to market—and to patients—with new solutions faster, with the controls and compliance of their data centre. And Tintri’s building block-like architecture makes the platform simple to manage and scale for our fast-growing healthcare customers.”
