You, Us, and the Amazon Cloud

By on Wednesday, April 18th, 2012 | No Comments

As several customers and partners have expressed their interest in our current Amazon capabilities, I'd like to take the chance to summarize our integration with Amazon and their excellent cloud services. In ASG 8.300, we added two different areas of support with Amazon Web Services (AWS) products; our solution can be run within the Amazon Elastic Computing Cloud (EC2)using a pre-built machine image provided by us, along with a dedicated Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) connector to join your ASG to your VPC with a level of ease never before possible. As a result, you then saw the business case possibilities around using RED appliances and WIFI Access Points for connecting branch offices back to products hosted within Amazon; we have shipped thousands of units in response. If you'd like to get started (or improve) with Amazon Web Services, download some guides on how to setup these configurations yourself, and otherwise learn about what is possible around these technologies, I would invite you to read on for the rest of this posting.

Telemedicine and improving patient care

By on Tuesday, June 14th, 2011 | No Comments

Studies show that physicians who study in large cities prefer to stay there and it can be difficult for rural areas to attract doctors. Additionally, as training costs rise and doctors look to large city hospitals for their careers, rural areas in states like such as Minnesota and Indiana have noticed a shortage in doctors. Short of opening medical schools in remote areas of the country there is little these small towns and counties can to do attract doctors. Working in a remote area with few facilities and less resources and peers can be difficult and states like Texas are looking to new legislation to help attract and retain young doctors.
