Challenge
The Klinikum Worms medical center uses the ORBIS hospital information system (HIS) from AGFA HealthCare to organize workflows in patient care units and administration. It also manages all of the data generated in the process, from order forms to X-ray images. The availability of data is important to patients, since this information includes numerous diagnostic results and details of examinations. Failures and data losses can be life-threatening.
Solution
Klinikum Worms makes no compromises when it comes to safeguarding data, so they chose NetBackup™. This software from Veritas has been certified by AGFA as an ideal backup solution for ORBIS HIS, and it can handle even the complex backup tasks set by Klinikum Worms.
Outcome
Several terabytes of highly sensitive data from a complex, partially virtualized environment are backed up to a storage area network (SAN) at regular intervals. Both data backup and recovery rates are nearly 100 percent.
