Seattle Children's has signed a 10-year deal with a cloud computing company to enhance scalability and reduce IT costs.
The pediatric health system inked the deal with Rackspace Technology to phase out legacy technologies and launch a standardized managed services model using Rackspace's private cloud and public cloud platforms such as Microsoft Azure and Amazon Web Services.
"The integration of cutting-edge technology is a critical component to delivering exceptional patient care," said Zafar Chaudry, MD, senior vice president and chief digital, AI and information officer, in a Feb. 20 news release. "This collaboration with Rackspace will not only streamline our IT operations but also create capacity for resources to expand our services and enrich the patient experience."
