Let me ask you a question: When did you start using your current physical examination system? Have you upgraded it?

 

Let me ask you a question: When did you start using your current physical examination system? Have you upgraded it? Is it a web-based version or a traditionally installed one? I believe many of you have upgraded your systems or are preparing to do so in the past couple of years. When upgrading, you may often hear about whether the physical examination system is deployed locally or on the cloud. Today, let's talk about the pros and cons of deploying a system on the cloud. The advantages include not needing to set up and manage a data center, no longer worrying about hardware security, and no longer fearing data loss due to power outages or server damage. Management costs are effectively reduced, and system maintenance and updates become easier. Now, let's also chat about some points to note. For cloud-deployed systems, you need to consider the network transmission speed between the cloud and the user end, as well as whether the system can be accessed normally during concurrent visits by multiple users. Additionally, the physical examination system needs to interface with numerous devices and systems, such as HIS, LIS, PACS systems, ECG machines, height and weight scales, etc. You need to consider whether data can be transmitted normally between them. In summary, cloud-deployed physical examination systems are suitable for clients who have established mature cloud adaptation within their organizations and have migrated most of their systems to the cloud. Building a cloud solely for the physical examination system requires careful consideration of various factors and should be used with caution.
