IT INFRASTRUCTURE CHALLENGES

To start, we know all too well that healthcare enterprises have unique IT infrastructure challenges.  Security and compliance must be blended with the immediate availability of data to support quality patient care.  You can’t blindly follow tech trends, because security issues and IT downtime can put lives at risk. 

Whether you are in the public cloud, have an on-prem-data center, or pursue a hybrid blend of cloud and traditional infrastructure, maintaining uptime in a redundant, secure environment and having the proper recovery solutions is crucial in keeping your business afloat, no matter the disturbance.

Reading’s Direct LTx has been providing colocation solutions for 15 years for healthcare enterprises in Eastern and Central Pennsylvania and has the data center colocation solutions you need.

YOUR HYBRID FUTURE

Unless you have the budget for large capital items like an on-premises data center, outsourced data center colocation is likely the best solution to avoid runaway cloud costs.  But there are likely some applications that you run that thrive in the cloud and are best utilized there. 

How do you get the performance from ALL your applications, including those that do well in the cloud?  The answer is hybrid computing.  Hybrid is defined as a blend of cloud and traditional data center infrastructure to utilize each form of infrastructure effectively. 

How Can You Leverage a Hybrid Solution?  Direct LTx in Reading is Eastern Pennsylvania’s premier data center colocation provider.  Just an hour west of Philadelphia your organization can benefit from the following:

• A 6-megawatt data center hosting both above and below ground in an area with zero flood risk and low seismic risk.

• Significant on-site backup power, including four generators.

• 24/7/365 On-Site Security

• Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity Planning.

In closing, your IT infrastructure needs to and will change over time.   Let’s give you some real-life healthcare industry use cases.

Billion-Dollar Healthcare Heavyweight:  An entire, fully-secured data hall in our 6-megawatt data center in Reading, PA is utilized for colocation by this Direct LTx customer.  They can focus on the doctor and patient relationships instead of running the data infrastructure needed to maximize uptime and connectivity.

Single-Cabinet Colocation Customer:  Formerly having hosted their infrastructure in their own facility, this smaller company is now taking advantage of the same world-class security and redundancy as the healthcare heavyweight.  There’s room to grow over time, or maybe this is all they will need.

Cloud-Ready Hybrid Infrastructure:  Unsure of what their technology needs will be in a couple of years, this enterprise enjoys the benefits of secure colocation for now with a plan to utilize Direct LTx cloud onramps for a hybrid solution.  They’ll be able to connect directly with AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, and dozens of other public clouds from Direct LTx. As their needs change, their footprint at Direct LTx can grow or shrink, making sure their infrastructure is always “right-sized” for their requirements.
