Hyper-converged architecture for hospital digital innovation

In recent years, under the dual influence of new medical reform policies and technological innovations, the domestic medical industry is undergoing a tremendous transformation. With the advancement and deepening of China's medical and health system reform, the indiscriminate release of a variety of medical reform policies, including the introduction of new policies such as grading diagnosis and treatment, and medical union construction, will have a profound impact on the development of the entire domestic medical market.

At the same time, China's medical industry is still in the critical period of rapid transformation from the basic informationization stage to the medical big data application innovation stage. The digital transformation storm driven by emerging technologies such as cloud computing, big data and artificial intelligence is sweeping the domestic market. All walks of life and in the medical industry have caused huge waves.

Under this background, Wenzhou Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital has not only become the first unit in Zhejiang Province to introduce Nutanix enterprise cloud solutions through intensive cooperation with Nutanix, but also become a successful example of bold exploration and innovation in the medical industry.

As Zhou Yuhui, director of the Wenzhou Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital Information Center, said: "Nutanix's solution not only reduces the overall cost of hospital data center management and equipment investment, but also lays a solid foundation for future hospital business application innovation."

New and old IT, pain points in hospital transformation

Established in 1958, Wenzhou Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine is one of the first 28 hospitals of integrated Chinese and Western medicine in China. After several generations of efforts, it has developed into a large-scale medical, scientific research, teaching, prevention, health care and rehabilitation in Wenzhou. The only one city is a public-level third-class Chinese and Western medicine hospital.

According to Zhou Yihui, the information center of the hospital is responsible for the information construction of the whole hospital, including the overall planning of software and hardware. At present, the establishment of the department has been 18 years. It can be said that the hospital information construction started quite early. Therefore, the challenge of the so-called "new and old IT" conversion has also been encountered in the moment. This huge challenge is mainly reflected in the following three aspects in the informationization practice of Wenzhou Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine:

First, the hospital's data center hardware architecture is more complex, both old systems, new systems, and more virtualized architecture, resulting in very high hardware costs, management costs, and energy costs. Taking the current hospital inspection system as an example, the system is deployed in four servers and two cabinets, which makes energy consumption, space occupation, and daily management very inconvenient.

Second, the hospital has also introduced a virtualization solution for the data center, hoping to improve the performance of the old system. However, in the process of upgrading through virtualization, there are also many technical bottlenecks, especially the server's I/O access and I/O throughput, which are far from meeting the peak requirements of the hospital's business.

Third, with the development of the hospital, the business system continues to increase, and its support for hardware has also raised higher and higher requirements. For example, the hospital's core management information system HIS currently includes seven or eighty modules, including fees, price, pharmacy, queuing, appointments, and many other subsystems. This requires that the hardware architecture must be mature to support the technology. In the daily work, we must ensure the smooth operation of these systems.

It can be seen that the main “pain point” of Wenzhou Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine is to transform and upgrade the IT infrastructure. On the one hand, the cost of the infrastructure should be greatly reduced to reduce the cost of running traditional business and expanding new business. On the one hand, it is necessary to make the infrastructure more flexible, so as to facilitate the introduction of new services and increase new competitiveness.

The good news is that this kind of "pain point" and new appeals have made super-fusion technology enter the vision of Zhou Yihui, and have entered the transformation and upgrading of the IT infrastructure of Wenzhou Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine.

Active exploration, testing water hyper-converged architecture

After a series of understandings, studies and investigations, Wenzhou Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine finally chose the Nutanix solution, and through the innovative practice of hyper-converged infrastructure, it has become a successful example of the bold exploration and innovation of medical institutions in Zhejiang Province. In Zhou Yihui's view, the hyper-converged architecture has great advantages in space occupation, installation and deployment, security management, and performance improvement:

First of all, from a spatial point of view, today's data center computer room is a scarce resource, and the computer room planning usually takes a long time. Therefore, for the booming hospital business, it is obviously not feasible to use the past data center construction plan. . The hyper-converged architecture has advantages in terms of space. One node may be carried in a 1U rack. For some small and medium-sized hospitals, the Nutanix hyper-converged architecture of a cabinet may solve the computing requirements of the entire equipment room.

Second, from a deployment perspective, the Nutanix solution is very easy to deploy and takes less time than traditional server architectures. The Nutanix solution on the Wenzhou Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine, including installation and testing, took only a week, which was unimaginable in the past.

Thirdly, from a security point of view, Nutanix provides a multi-node software-defined distributed storage solution with powerful security advantages, and does not require the use of third-party backup software and backup storage cabinets, which greatly saves the hospital's secondary investment in backup. cost.

Finally, from a performance perspective, Nutanix's product I/O computing power is very strong. Although Nutanix is ​​a single-node CPU memory configuration, Nutanix core technology is optimized in software, and its I/O throughput capability is very strong, which not only improves the work efficiency of various business departments of the hospital, but also makes the medical experience of the people more. Ok, because the time they have to wait is greatly reduced.

In this regard, Zhou Yuhui said: "The generation of a large-scale accounting monthly report, in the past we went to the traditional x86 server to calculate, it takes about 50 seconds, but in the Nutanix product, it takes less than 10 seconds, equivalent to an increase of nearly six Not only that, Zhou Yuhui is also very satisfied with the input cost. This is because the Nutanix solution can not only store storage, but also be the core database server of the subsystem. It can be described as “one machine and two uses”. The overall cost of the solution is quite cost-effective.

It can be said that Nutanix products have become an important supporting force in the infrastructure of Wenzhou Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital.

Bold innovation, bring more imagination

To date, some of the core applications of the Wenzhou Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital, such as the electronic medical record database system, have been running on the Nutanix solution, far exceeding expectations. Once the time is ripe, the hospital plans to migrate all business systems to the Nutanix hyper-converged infrastructure.

In Zhou Yihui's view, the core goal of the hospital information center is to serve the various business departments of the hospital. Especially when the whole industry is developing intelligently, it is expected that the hospital's business applications will also be more and more.

"In the future, we will have more than 200 applications. In this case, if the original deployment method is still followed, then the difficulties are unimaginable, and the emergence of the Nutanix enterprise cloud solution is undoubtedly for the hospital. More new choices and new spaces have come.” Zhou Yihui specifically pointed out that Nutanix products are perfect solutions for medical institutions with small data center computer rooms but recent new business system online demand. It is worth promoting and popularizing on a large scale.

Conclusion There is no doubt that the means and opportunities provided by new technologies, especially the construction and improvement of medical big data resources, are not only new challenges in the new era, but their application development will also promote revolutionary changes in the health care model. It is conducive to meeting the hospital's future demand for data sharing, unified and efficient, and interconnected medical information platform.

The successful deployment of Nutanix Enterprise Cloud Solution will help Wenzhou Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital to accelerate digital and intelligent transformation, improve hospital service level and core competitiveness. At the same time, the practical experience of emerging technologies will also promote the informationization of medical and health industry. The improvement of the level is of great significance to promoting the healthy China strategy and deepening the reform of the medical and health system.
