Customer use case
 

Customer challenge
A healthcare network struggled with outages that lasted several hours. They needed a solution to run mission-critical apps in a scalable, easily accessible, high-performance environment to increase their resilience and provide continuous operations for patient care.

 

How Kyndryl helped
Kyndryl designed a first-of-a-kind architecture using three data centers in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) to build out a solution that has a high-availability architecture and a separate geographic disaster recovery (DR) site. We migrated data from their old server onto OCI, provided managed services through the application layer, bundled in PeopleSoft licenses and committed professional services to assist with application upgrades.

 

Outcomes achieved

  • Improved availability and performance of mission-critical applications to ensure uninterrupted patient care
  • Created a better, simpler clinician experience
  • Enabled $1.5 million in total cost of ownership savings
  • Increased scalability for new projects and variable workloads

Protect patient data and privacy

Protect patient health data and ensure continuity of critical functions by embedding security and resiliency capabilities across the entire ecosystem.

Kyndryl can help you:

  • Create an actionable roadmap to address security gaps and strengthen resiliency capabilities
  • Modernize infrastructure to support nimble systems with a modern approach to workflows, data and security
  • Build an orchestrated resilience approach to mitigate cyber attack disruptions
  • Leverage automation to strengthen data security against ransomware attempts and enable regulatory compliance

 

Customer use case

 

Customer challenge
Kyndryl’s client, a healthcare services company, was hit with a ransomware attack that encrypted their systems and caused a significant shutdown of their application systems and network, impacting their ability to perform normal service operations.

 

How Kyndryl helped
Kyndryl led the recovery effort using its minimal viable company(MVC) strategy and ensured business foundational systems received priority restoration for a phased business recovery.

During the restoration, Kyndryl experts identified gaps and communicated recommendations to the client to strengthen their security posture and more effectively respond to future cyber incidents.

 

Outcomes achieved
