Client Overview
The customer is a software development firm with a long legacy in Dental Practice Management solutions, designed to streamline various administrative and clinical operations including appointment scheduling, patient record management, billing, insurance processing etc. They empower modern dental and specialized practices through intelligent software solutions by reducing administrative burdens, improving operational efficiency and enhancing patient experience.
The customer had their practice management software hosted on-premises, which integrated with software that provides imaging solutions and is hosted on an AWS environment. They wanted to add capabilities for X-rays in their Practice Management Platform with a highly available, reliable and scalable solution to support all 300 locations. For this, they considered transitioning their platform to the cloud.
Business Challenge
-
The customer’s existing on-premises infrastructure faced limitations around high availability, flexibility and scalability. There was substantial manual effort required to accommodate the increase in traffic and this incurred high costs to promptly augment infrastructure resources.
-
Continuing with an on-premises setup would necessitate substantial capital expenditure to acquire new hardware for enabling access to 300 different locations.
-
The customer was experiencing network latency issues, which resulted in poor image quality when accessing rendered images from the rendering software which is hosted on AWS.
Solution Approach
-
Trianz conducted comprehensive planning and discovery, including the review and validation of existing application discovery and assessment reports, encompassing move groups, wave plans, target state design, and target landing zone deployment.
