About The Customer
Kingsway Hospitals is a unit of SPANV Medisearch Life Sciences PL, promoted by the SMS group. Led by eminent doctors from Nagpur, Kingsway has plans to grow its presence and establish a national and global footprint, over time. They set about creating a multispecialty healthcare facility in Nagpur with a vision to provide affordable, quality healthcare facilities for every class of society. A new hospital meant that hospital infrastructure and IT operations had to be built from the ground up. The hospital is committed to offering the highest quality healthcare, at affordable rates to patients from all walks of life.
The Challenge
Kingsway Hospitals, a new healthcare facility in Nagpur, Central India, needed to build its IT infrastructure from the ground up. The hospital required a robust and efficient Hospital Information Management System (HIMS) and Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) that could handle terabytes of patient data and medical imaging files. The systems needed to function independently and offer high-speed performance. The hospital also required a solution that could ensure zero downtime, enhanced data backup and disaster recovery, and maintain the highest levels of data security and privacy. The solution also needed to be flexible and scalable to accommodate the hospital's growth.
The Solution
HPE SimpliVity along with a flash-ready, shared HPE MSA SAN Storage was deployed as a holistic solution. The PACS server was hosted independently and connected directly to a SAN storage of 48 TB capacity. All other administrative and hospital applications were running on three HPE SimpliVity virtual machine nodes, which fulfilled both the memory and compute requirements. The solution was implemented in a phased manner, with hardware installation and VM setup completed before customer handover. The solution also included built-in data protection, replication, and disaster recovery features, and allowed for dynamic creation of new virtual machines on the existing server stack.
Operational Impact
  • The HPE SimpliVity solution has enabled Kingsway Hospitals to offer uninterrupted, smooth services to doctors and patients, with zero downtime and fast data access.
  • The solution has increased the hospital's disaster preparedness, agility, and efficiency.
  • The solution has also ensured the highest levels of confidentiality for patient data.
  • The solution has allowed the hospital to handle the ongoing growth of digitized medical data.
  • The solution has enhanced the hospital's disaster recovery with a virtual, optimized environment.
Quantitative Benefit
  • Consolidating server space has helped save power consumption and rack space by over 70% as compared with the traditional approach.
  • The solution offers a guaranteed zero-minute RPO, 600 to 700-second RTO.
  • The solution has resulted in guaranteed savings on storage versus traditional systems, including backup.
