Carestream’s latest CARESTREAM PACS platform supports workflow GRID computing, which facilitates storage and retrieval of information throughout an enterprise. This workflow GRID technology can reportedly provide synchronized global worklist and reporting to all sites, while allowing each site to operate independently of the network or centralized server when necessary.
Business continuity is expedited by supporting access from a secondary data center if the primary data center experiences equipment failure or a natural disaster. Cost efficiencies can be achieved through the sharing of storage resources, with flexible allocation that can be adjusted to match the changing needs of each facility.
