Italian Specialized Medical Center Chooses Qsan

Company
The CEMS srl (Specialized Medical Center) is a multi-specialist structure of about 3,200 square meters located in Verona, Italy.

With more than 140 doctors, it provides personalized healthcare services. On the ground floor, there are 13 specialist clinics, where renowned doctors work. The first floor is dedicated at radio diagnostic activity, where the latest gen machines are at doctors’ disposal and reports are drawn up in real time. CEMS also hosts the trauma service, the first private emergency orthopedic center in Verona where patients can access without a reservation for minor traumas. In the basement there are 13 other clinics, a gym and 4 boxes for physical and manual therapies. There are also 2 surgical clinics and an endoscopic clinic with the latest gen Olympus instruments.

Alongside medical purposes, CEMS also respects the well-being and enhancement of their patients, such as respect for their beliefs, conditions and different states of necessity.It achieves this by breaking down any barrier, architectural or cultural, that may be interposed between the structure, the staff and the user who accesses the service.

Challenge
The customer needed to consolidate the storage of various Linux and Windows Servers and medical devices in a repository that could grant HA, support of various access protocols, protection of sensitive data from ransomware attacks, and easy expansion without hidden costs.

Solution:

• Data security
• Business backup

Thanks to the advice of CEMS’ partner Silverlake, a system service provider that takes care of part of CEMS’ infrastructure, the proposed Qsan XN8024D solution makes it easy to meet capacity, data security and performance needs. Thanks to the QSM operating system’s native snapshot and snapshot lock features, the support of various access protocols allows the center to consolidate the storage of the various Linux and Windows servers and medical devices, assuring simultaneous protection of sensitive data vs. malicious external attacks as well as ransomwares. The choice of XN8024D was also dictated by the need to adopt a storage system that could be scalable in the future without having to face excessive costs.

Benefits
XN8024D offers HA and good performance to secure sensitive data. The other key benefit of XN8024D is that it supports data growth for years to come.
