Oracle Case Study: Beaumont Hospital
Category: Data Management, Servers and Server OS
Tags: os, linux, applications, data
Overview One of the largest hospitals in the Dublin area, Beaumont Hospital was created in 1987 through the merger of two city center hospitals. The hospital wanted to migrate from costly, inflexible mainframe to Web-enabled platform for hospital data and applications and enable simultaneous access to data by clinicians and administrators. The challenge was to improve IT stability, availability, and performance while reducing hardware costs and provide the scalability to handle rapidly growing demand and an increasing number of patient visits. The hospital transferred staff scheduling, patient records, and trauma services data to Oracle Database running on Red Hat Linux, to build a secure, robust, scalable repository for critical information and saved 50% by using Linux instead of a proprietary operating system.
