Healthcare Cloud helped Simplex Himes simplify EMR data and application management.

The challenge

Demand for digital healthcare solutions in the region kept growing, and the infrastructure underneath the product could not keep pace.

Scaling the supporting infrastructure
As regional demand grew, scaling the platform behind the product became the constraint on taking on new customers.
Maintenance cost and resource drain
Rising maintenance costs and the people needed to run on-premise infrastructure restricted the company’s ability to accelerate disruption-driven innovation.
Sovereignty and compliance requirements
The business needed a cloud provider that could meet its innovation, expansion, data sovereignty and compliance requirements together.

The solution

Healthcare Cloud gave Simplex Himes a safe and dependable platform to scale its operations and deliver a better end-user experience — an end-to-end auditable cloud, fully compliant with regional regulations.

Healthcare Cloud · optimised EMR hosting
An optimised platform to host the EMR application and power operations for an expanding user base.
Dynamically scalable architecture
State-of-the-art architecture that grows with the customer base instead of ahead of a purchase order.
Automated backup and disaster recovery
Value-added continuity services included, with round-the-clock support behind them.
Auditable compliance posture
Evidence available end to end, mapped to regional healthcare regulation.

The result was continuous service for a growing user base — without the upgrade cycle that used to sit between the company and its roadmap.
