Wellstar transitions to image cloud storage

Wellstar, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Trillennium Medical Imaging (TMI), has stated it plans to transition to a virtual cloud data system for imaging storage.

The implementation of a TMI Virtual Cloud Data System will provide the framework to meet its data needs for initial rollout and into the future, the Holland, Ohio-based company stated. The system needs to meet TMI's requirements for corporate data, patient data and other federal regulations.

The system will allow TMI to add new accounts without data storage constraints, TMI stated. The company also said the server will be maintained 24/7 by the host and will have built-in redundancy with a backup server located 600 to 800 miles away for instantaneous back up of all data streams.
