Demand Analysis
We witness worldwide utilization of computing technology in diverse fields of the society, especially in medicine. The rise of information technology in the medical industry has alleviated medical field with sharing and usage of patient information for diagnosis and treatment, data storage and retrieval for decision-making and other purposes. People invest continuously in medicine, as the information technology in medicine is the only key that revolutionizes hospital infrastructure and healthcare in and out, all around. Utilization of traditional computers help to some extent, but block this ongoing reformation and affect the efficiency of diagnosis and treatment. Traditional PCs features high purchase expenses, difficult to deploy and maintain, long time to recover in case of malware attack or repairs. Despite the use of varied information build-up products in the traditional system, they appear to be problematic. Let us discuss few deployment problems below.
- High Procurement Costs: The expenses to buy traditional PCs with a batch of servers, their related hardware and software are high. Hospitals require special larger equipment rooms to accommodate the purchased systems, which is not feasible for hospitals short of space.
- Long online cycle: The hospital has many applications and complex systems. It takes dozens of days or even months to complete the deployment.
- Long Deployment Duration: Hospitals require many traditional PCs that need to be assembled, installed with applications and software, which may take more days and even months to finish and seem complex in nature.
- Poor Security: Hospitals have many computers running various applications creating complexity. U disk is difficult to control and maintain. It is highly expected to lose medical information such as patient data, diagnosis details, treatment information, financial bills, etc. or data theft or information leak.
solution
FomiCloud cloud terminal, combined with vMatrix Server Manager software, provides an innovative way of desktop computing by powering multiple users with just one host computer. The FomiCloud cloud terminal devices have no moving parts, no hardware for processing or storage. All processing and storage are done on the host computer. Hence, there is no need to install local drivers, managing patches and no software licensing fees and updates for the cloud terminal as they serve only as input and output devices. The vMatrix Server Manager software, running on the host PC, enhances the overall functionality and usability of the sharing system by offering connection brokering, graphics acceleration, audio & USB redirection, centralized management. IT Administrators can configure, monitor and manage the endpoint devices and users centrally and simply at the server side through the front-end console. FomiCloud cloud terminal, combined with vMatrix Server Manager software, provide a computing experience that is practically indistinguishable from running on a PC and offer great advantages over traditional PCs, such as saved costs, enhanced security, reduced maintenance, and simplified deployment and management.
Benefits
Installation
Components：
Medical system + FomiCloud system.
Weifu Mi Cloud Desktop includes:
- Shared host: the computing and storage machine that delivers virtual desktops to end users.
- Cloud terminal devices: the devices for connecting end users to the virtual desktops on the host.
- vMatrix Server Manager: running on the host to enhances the overall functionality and usability of the sharing system by offering connection brokering, graphics acceleration, audio & USB redirection, and centralized management.
Implementation steps:
The FomiCloud system can be set up at pharmacies, reception centers, workplaces like clinics and administrative offices where regular office applications take place. These workplaces need centralized administration of records and patient data, which shared computing can provide. These premises have unified desktops and run common applications useful for their scenario. There will be minimized heavy graphical applications and work with normal multimedia content that poses no compatibility issues. Healthcare providers can easily access the data from any desktop; connect the printer or scanner depending on their needs. However, PCs are required for special USB devices like tollbooths and triage desks. One can use a Mini PC and operate a local desktop to use these USB devices.
- Connect the cloud terminal devices to monitor, USB peripherals and then connect to the LAN switch through the network cable.
- Install the vMatrix Server Manager, the multi-user patch, USB drivers and other required applications on the host.
- Create user accounts with vMatrix Server Manager.
- Login with created user accounts and ready to work on the zero clients.
Optional:
- You can do some configurations depending on your specific use case, for example, setting themes, wallpaper, desktop icons, auto-run application and USB policy for users.
- You can use third-party recovery software or Windows systems for crash recovery or data back-up.
