HP StorageWorks Medical Archive Solution (MAS) uses computing grid-based software to implement an Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) solution for secure and reliable storage and transmission of medical imaging data. It addresses the scalability and economical challenges of long-term archiving plus rapid access to medical imaging information regardless of the size of the organization. It includes technology refreshes and meets mission critical requirements for ubiquitous access, data protection and business continuity. HP MAS aligns with the design principles of the adaptive enterprise by reducing the number of storage silos across your IT environment and enables access to the patient information when you need it. Standardization (Use of industry -standard interfaces, platforms and software) provides a cost effective storage solution that supports your long-term archival requirements. Modularization (Grid architecture) enables easy expansion with new nodes, technology, etc.
Features
•
Information Lifecycle Management: Automated ILM based on policies using study and image metadata for replication, retention and data placement.
•
Virtual storage system with open standards: CIFS or NFS interface provides virtualization of the archive tier for PACS applications. DICOM interface is also available for direct network connectivity to modalities and PACS components from multiple vendors
•
High Performance: Satisfies the most demanding retrieval rates for radiology, retrieving as many as 35,000 large (100 MB+) studies per hour, through low latency streaming transport and dynamic load balancing across storage/bandwidth/CPU to optimize performance and availability. Uses lossless compression to maximize the use of storage space
•
Business continuity: Real-time data replication, fault-tolerant configurations and self-healing features maximize resource availability required in mission critical healthcare environments
•
Secure: Dual data protection via RAID-6 and mirrored configurations. Can protect the integrity of the data through encryption for secure data storage and transfer. Uses digital proactive integrity verification. Provides Write Once Read Many (WORM) capability for all tiers of storage.
