KAMMCO’s challenges and migration

A healthcare organization’s success is dependent on data-driven decision-making. Inability to quickly access and process patient data because of outdated infrastructure may result in a life-or-death situation. KAMMCO needed to migrate to the cloud but faced three significant challenges:
01.
Replicating its robust on-premises security infrastructure in the cloud.
02.
No knowledge or experience working in any cloud environment.
03.
A Three-month deadline handed down from executive management.
