Care delivery is constantly evolving. For healthcare organizations to take advantage of emerging technologies such as generative artificial intelligence (AI) to increase efficiency, both clinically and operationally, leadership must ensure the organization’s IT infrastructure is up to the task. If it’s not, then organizations must adapt by refreshing their infrastructure to ensure greater efficiency, improved security and the ability to scale rapidly.
When healthcare organizations delay infrastructure refresh cycles, they face increased maintenance costs and may exhaust their resources when they need them most. This impacts operational and clinical efficiency as well as the ability to capitalize on new opportunities, which ultimately will cause them to fall behind their peers.
A strategic approach to infrastructure modernization involves embracing hybrid cloud initiatives. By doing so, healthcare organizations can effectively decide which workloads should remain on-premises and which should migrate to the cloud. This strategic positioning maximizes infrastructure efficiency, leveraging the cloud’s scalability and flexibility to accommodate storage needs and adapt to changing business conditions.
