Partner POV | Healthcare Organization Modernizes Data Center with AMD and Dell AI Innovations

Testimony produced and provided by AMD

A great example of AMD and Dell's partnership in action is OSF Healthcare. 

Situation

The Healthcare Organization's previous platform locked users out for up to five days to allow for upgrade processing. When patients' lives depend on a platform, it is critical that systems remain stable and operational 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. 

Solution

AMD and Dell transformed the Healthcare Organization's data center using cutting-edge technology, including support for the latest Instinct accelerators on PowerEdge XE servers, enabling exceptional performance for demanding workloads.

Outcomes and Benefits

Their new Dell AMD platform:

• Reduced upgrade downtime from 5 days to 17 hours
• Reduced response time by more than 50%
• Reduced database access time by almost 75%
• Reduced capital costs by 50%
• Returned 7-figure savings and operating expenses for the next 5 years.
• Reduced maintenance cost by more than 90% and that's locked in for five years

"The collaboration between Dell Technologies and AMD has revolutionized our operational performance at OSF Healthcare, allowing us to deliver faster and more reliable services, ultimately enhancing the patient care experience. With the cost-effective and high-performance solutions provided by Dell and AMD, we are achieving unprecedented efficiency, enabling our clinicians to focus more on patient well-being rather than technology constraints," said Joe Morrow, Director of Technology Services, OSF Healthcare. "When you have patient lives dependent on our platforms, it is critical that our systems remain stable and operational 24/7, 365 days a year. Because of these systems, we have significantly reduced Epic downtimes, empowering OSF Healthcare to provide superior healthcare services while ensuring security and scalability in our operations."
