Cloud Computing in Healthcare - Thematic Intelligence

Cloud computing is replacing the traditional IT stack
Cloud computing refers to the provision of IT infrastructure and platform services to provide a flexible, scalable, and on-demand IT environment. At the simplest level of abstraction, it may refer only to IT infrastructure, such as a remotely hosted server. At the furthest level of abstraction, it refers to a remotely hosted software application together with all the computing elements required to provide that software, such as a data center, networking equipment, and servers.
The cloud offers benefits to healthcare beyond cost savings
The subscription model offered by cloud vendors helps businesses to access IT hardware and software as needed rather than buying assets upfront. This gives them faster access to application updates and enables them to scale quickly, remove clunky data siloes, and cut IT costs. In healthcare, the cloud can provide further benefits, from streamlining hospital operations and supporting connected care to providing complete visibility over pharma supply chain operations and accelerating medical device recall. The cloud also supports the use of other emerging technologies in healthcare, such as artificial intelligence (AI), and can improve a company's environmental, social, and governance (ESG) credentials.
