 | The implementation of Electronic Health Records (EHR) has been a hot topic in the medical community for some time. However, many physicians continue to subscribe to myths regarding EHR implementation. Often, private practices maintain the status quo because it seems easier and less expensive than adopting change—but this way of thinking is shortsighted and could drain thousands in profits. Paper charts are cumbersome and an outdated method to manage patient information. Each day hours of staff time is wasted pulling and filing patient charts. It is estimated that 30% of the time medical records are “not found” creating a concern for quality of care as well as hours of lost staff time. Additionally, lost and incomplete paper charge slips cut revenue. Elite practices have discovered the link between new technologies and financial performance. Early adopters of EHR technology have already been experiencing how paperless workflow and information management has streamlined processes and increased their bottom line. Request Free! |

 | Today, many IT organizations have reached a high level of maturity with regard to virtualization and are starting to look into the automation, flexibility, and self-service capabilities that a cloud solution can provide. They see that this strategy provides them opportunities to develop and deploy new business strategies and delivery models that can enhance their ability to survive and thrive in a demanding and unpredictable world--a world where the cloud is a key component of their ability to accelerate innovation, to become significantly more agile and efficient, and to optimize costs across the enterprise.

While dispelling cloud computing myths, they will answer tough questions: How hard is it to adopt a private or hybrid cloud? How difficult is it to maintain and secure a cloud? How will the cloud transform my business? Do I have the right skill sets in place? What are some of my cost considerations?

 | If you're still debating about whether private or public cloud is the answer to your IT needs -- you're behind the curve. That's yesterday's debate. Today, the conversation has shifted from “private versus public” to “which hybrid cloud scenario best fits my requirements.” Hybrid refers to any assortment of external/internal environments that includes at least one cloud environment to meet the requirements of your application portfolio. If done strategically, organizations can best fit sourcing of applications by specific architecture, security requirements, and usage. Today, only the most aggressive hybrid configurations split a single application across environments (for optimization within a single application) or actively move applications to cloud environments to accommodate bursts in usage (i.e., cloud bursting). But many enterprises today limit their definition of hybrid to these more aggressive options. Although there are significant barriers to cloud bursting today, other hybrid cloud scenarios are more within reach and common among enterprises.

 | The cloud changes everything for IT. In addition to heightened expectations, the overall technology context has become much more complex. Not all applications can or should be moved to the cloud. And the cloud model can be used internally to good effect as well as externally with third parties. That means that IT organizations end up managing a mixture of public cloud, private cloud, and traditional IT. This is a big challenge. IT managers have to acquire the tools to manage resources across three sourcing models and avoid having multiple islands of management operating separately. But this is also a great opportunity to be the innovation engine of the business and the catalyst of business decisions--provided IT can master the world of hybrid service delivery. And mastery requires two adjustments to the notion of cloud--realizing that cloud is a journey that follows distinct steps, and implementing comprehensive, unified management that can help you handle the intricacy of large hybrid cloud environments.

 | Unfortunately, most of us use either one password or a group of passwords for all of our major accounts. That’s dangerous. It doesn’t matter if the individual password is unique, or if it’s a long mix of numbers and letters; if you only use one password it won’t matter. When one account is compromised, all of your accounts will likely follow. The main reason people reuse passwords is that keeping track of many different logins (username and password as shortly both are called logins) is difficult, in fact it’s potentially impossible. This is where password management applications become crucial, especially in a business environment. You don’t want to use the same password with all of your online accounts, but it is also impossible for you to remember hundreds of passwords. So what should you do?

 | For most, the underlying technology that makes an app ‘tick’ is shrouded in mystery. This has been a boon for programming experts and has spurned a very profitable niche for professional programmers who are paid to research, develop, and build these apps. But what if you have an idea for the “next big thing” – or even the “next little thing” for that matter – with no programming skills to speak of and, for whatever reason, you don’t want to hand over your idea to a professional and pay to have it developed? In the past, if you weren’t an app programmer yourself, you would have had the option to (a) do nothing, of course, (b) be brave and trust your idea in the hands of a developer, or (c) develop your programming skills and learn how to build the darn thing yourself. Well, now there is hope for non-programmers. Recently, thanks to a collaboration between Google and MIT, the world of mobile app creation has been opened to everyone with App Inventor, which is a web-based development platform, making option (c) not so out of reach for many.

 | Ever since the introduction of the iPhone (and the iPad a few years later), people have increasingly been introduced to the Apple ecosystem first by an iOS device,not a Mac. Apple’s biggest selling point is that its products all work together and work consistently. For many first-time Mac owners (whose first Apple product was an iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch), “consistent” means that when they move to a Mac it works just like the iOS device that they’re used to. Apple pointed to this trend in Lion (the previous version of OS X), but Mountain Lion takes it that much further, and brings OS X and iOS together as seamlessly as possible.

 | Because of the outstanding economy, flexibility, and service levels it offers, virtualization is transforming data centers at breakneck speed: by 2016, an estimated 80 percent of the world's x86 servers will be Virtual Machines (VMs). But the speed of this transformation, along with the high resource utilization, ease of cloning, moving workloads, and other ways virtualization works its magic, raise challenges for “traditional” IT services and the teams that deliver them. Nowhere is the complexity that virtualization creates for traditional IT services more apparent than in backup and recovery, which participants in a recent Symantec survey ranked among their least-successful IT initiatives. This paper addresses five critical decisions organizations must make when building a backup and recovery plan to:

 | Customer strategies for data protection and recovery continue to be dictated by aggressive SLAs, rapid recovery, and ease of integration in existing environments. As a result, firms are embracing more disk-based data protection technologies, including Purpose-Built Backup Appliances (PBBAs) to protect and recover data and applications. These appliances include features such as data deduplication, compression, encryption, and replication. Meanwhile, unabated data growth continues to pressure IT staff and protection and recovery processes, leading customers to consider alternative backup methods and targets. This IDC White Paper explores the increased use and adoption patterns of PBBAs, both integrated and targeted, and the utility these appliances provide to customers in their data protection processes. In addition, this White Paper illuminates the customer value that Symantec's Backup Exec and NetBackup appliances bring to the data protection and recovery process. Request Free! |
