How to Get Cloud Right in Healthcare to Drive Innovation | Experts

Event Overview

Compared to other industries, healthcare has been slow to adopt modern cloud strategies. As health systems are increasingly taxed with connecting people, technology and data in completely new ways, the challenges associated with operating in a traditional, on-premises model became increasingly visible. Join WWT Chief Healthcare Advisor Dr. Sanaz Cordes and Director of Cloud Platforms Jack French as they talk about lessons learned from other industries that are broadly further along in their cloud journeys, the practical benefits and outcomes a sophisticated cloud posture can have on the clinician and staff experience, and how leaders should think about their cloud strategy to drive speed and scale while protecting sensitive data.
