Digital Transformation in Healthcare: Best practices for agile IT

We are entering an era of digital transformation in healthcare that is fueled by the convergence and unprecedented adoption of technologies that focus on Mobile, Cloud, Big Data, and the Internet of Things. This translates to more cloud and hybrid deployments of IT infrastructure. The need to manage cost and complexity in this environment is why healthcare IT departments are exploring options like hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) to support application deployment. This webinar explores the HCI and application deployment landscape with a real life customer example and covers best practices that save time, money, and human resources.

Maasstad Hospital is one of the largest non-university hospitals in the Netherlands caring for more than 450,000 patients each year. Join this webinar to discover how Maasstad Hospital is transforming healthcare IT by deploying cutting edge desktop (VDI) and server virtualization solutions on HCI.
