Shen Yao's Science and Technology Observation
Understand technology, win the future!
On a certain day at the peak of the epidemic, the People’s Daily wrote: “They do not abandon, do not give up, do not retreat, and are not afraid of hardships and dangers. They spontaneously participate in the fight against the epidemic. They share the same destiny with this city. In the face of difficulties, we will work together to bring Wuhan back to life."
This touching text describes a momentary scene of the Volunteer Team of Panorama Zhilian in Wuhan in February this year, counting, loading, and transporting the hospital's shortage of supplies day and night.
Just like 60 years ago, Chinese mountaineers created the feat of climbing Mount Everest from the northern slope for the first time in human history. At the critical moment when the epidemic was most raging, these brave climbers not only overcame difficulties and defeated themselves, but also completed "impossible tasks" with a fearless and upward climbing spirit.
In fact, in the process of Pan Zhilian Technology’s fight against the “epidemic”, Dell Technology also has a “figure”. In such a special period, Dell also broke through the conventional supply process and broke through numerous difficulties within 48 hours. The hardware equipment urgently needed by Panorama Zhilian was sent to the frontline of Wuhan's fight against the "epidemic".
There is no doubt that technology companies represented by Dell continue to empower the medical field with technology. Through innovative cooperation with partners, not only have medical staff shortened the precious time of fighting the "epidemic", but also actively participated in the fight against the epidemic through a serious and professional attitude. In the national joint action against the "epidemic", it can be said that behind this is the embodiment of the "in China, for China" concept that Dell Technology has always advocated, and it is also its "smart medicine with science and technology to pay tribute to climbers". The best proof of spirit.
The climbers behind the fight against the "epidemic"
Although eight months have passed since the anti-epidemic experience, Sun Luming, the founder of Panorama Zhilian, still remembers the original process. He said: "In Wuhan, in the face of such a situation, no one is not afraid of death, but At the moment of the epidemic, everyone and every company has an obligation to do everything they can to prevent, control and fight the epidemic."
We know that in order to alleviate the outbreak of the epidemic and the increase in the number of infected people, Wuhan decided to build a shelter hospital at that time. The shelter hospital played an important role in the Wenchuan earthquake in 2008 and Yushu earthquake relief in 2010. It was also in Wuhan. In the battle against the "epidemic", it successfully completed its mission.
Sun Luming recalled that from the decision to build the "square cabin hospital" to the formal completion, it took only 3 days to realize the "square cabin hospital" from scratch. In the process of the construction of the "square cabin hospital", Panorama Zhilian also accepted It's the task of "one hundred thousand urgent".
At that time, because the number of patients admitted was "increasing day by day", it was necessary to digitally manage each patient's heart rate, blood pressure, pedometer, sleep and other health data and movement trajectory through the Internet of Things, but when the "square cabin hospital" decided to build At the time when the epidemic was the most serious, in order to catch up with the deployment pace of the upper cabin hospital, only two days were left for Panorama Zhilian.
Not only is the time tight and the task is heavy, the biggest problem facing Sun Luming is the anxiety of the family members of the volunteer squad. On the first day of the project site measurement, Panorama Zhilian ran into trouble because the same group of engineers were arranged continuously. The families of these employees are very worried and even cry to the company. "We are not afraid of death in our business, but in the face of the difficulties of these family relationships, we still strive to adjust to the extent that everyone can rest assured." Sun Luming said.
Inspired by the spirit of "not afraid of death", Panorama Zhilian spent a total of 2 days and 2 nights from formulating the plan to project landing. With the help of Panorama Zhilian IoT solution, the "square cabin hospital" not only achieved precise positioning of personnel At the same time, the "Optics Valley Fangcang Intelligent Connection Management Platform" developed by it allows the Fangcang crew to fully grasp the real-time position and historical movement trajectory information of the personnel, truly achieve internal prevention and external control, and strengthen the prevention and control of the epidemic. The first line of defense.
In fact, behind the astonishing "China speed" of the "Fangcai Hospital" is inseparable from the results of the integration of software and hardware of Panorama Zhilian. For example, in terms of software, Panorama Zhilian self-developed a comprehensive personnel management system, which collects data through IOT equipment and analyzes it through edge servers; and in terms of hardware, through the hyper-converged all-in-one machine provided by Dell Technology "the first time", Let this science and technology fight the "epidemic" from impossible to possible.
In this regard, Sun Luming said: "The cooperation between Panorama Zhilian and Dell Technology has been for a long time. Dell's product stability, whether it is technical architecture, or server/storage hardware strength, is leading in the industry. For massive data processing, For example, the stability in the community scenario is very suitable. In fact, the user's perception of the application is stability, stability and smoothness. This is the most fundamental support of any system."
Looking back, as a long-term partner of Dell Technologies, Panorama Zhilian, at the critical moment of the most raging epidemic in Wuhan, pursued with a firm belief, with a professional and serious attitude, while overcoming huge challenges and difficulties, and staged a scene. The admirable implementation, delivery and service have provided "escort" for the "square cabin hospital" to be put into use, which is undoubtedly a true portrayal of the "climber" of science and technology.
Science and technology empower smart healthcare
As the most important "main battlefield" in the fight against the epidemic, medical institutions have undoubtedly played an important role in this. In the past decade, driven by the "new medical reform" policy and digital technology, the digital transformation of the domestic medical industry has also Great progress has been made, but with the continuous deepening of digital transformation, more requirements and challenges have also been put forward for the construction of smart hospitals in the future. Specifically:
On the one hand, with the acceleration of digital transformation, hospital data is constantly becoming "big". If medical big data is likened to an iceberg, then only the tip of the iceberg is exposed, and there are a lot of unstructured data hidden under the water, such as images, ECG, monitoring, genetic analysis, and viruses. Detection and so on. Therefore, how to store and manage these data has become a new problem.
On the other hand, this year’s sudden epidemic has further highlighted the importance of data in epidemic prevention and control. The use of data analysis technology to carry out innovative research, development and utilization to serve epidemic prevention and control, clinical treatment and scientific research, and to support scientific decision-making based on data is also "imminent."
In this process, based on comprehensive technological innovation capabilities, Dell Technologies has promoted the medical industry to move steadily from "digitalization" to "intelligence."
It can be seen that in the hospital's electronic medical record rating and interconnection rating, the current core system infrastructure of the hospital uses Dell Technology's mid-to-high-end storage and servers; in the hospital's new generation of modern data centers, Dell Technology's software-defined data center The solution has been deployed in many medical institutions; for the data security needs of hospitals in the Era 2.0 era, Dell Technologies' comprehensive data protection solution builds a solid data security fence for customers.
Not only that, Dell Technologies has always used scene-based innovative solutions as a breakthrough point, in hospital-level PACS application support, medical big data platform construction, medical data lake construction, medical imaging cloud construction, IoT and video surveillance applications, and massive small files Storage management has unique advantages, which also laid a solid foundation for the implementation of smart medical care.
Taking hospital-wide PACS application support as an example, Dell Technologies' newly launched DellEMC PowerScale single file system can effectively simplify mass data management; horizontal expansion architecture meets hospital-wide PACS application performance requirements; online software and hardware upgrades solve mass data migration and long-term storage Burden; automatic data tiering meets data lifecycle management requirements. In addition, PowerScale can also "make a big show" in medical big data analysis and AI innovative applications. In particular, PowerScale can perfectly cooperate with mainstream big data analysis software such as Hadoop/Spark, which truly breaks the bottlenecks faced by storage in AI applications in the past. Hospitals can also better release the potential of data.
More importantly, in the overall architecture of Dell Technologies' data center for smart hospitals, in addition to the hospital-level data center based on the fifth-generation storage platform to build a data lake, it can also build a VCF on VxRail cloud platform based on a distributed architecture. In order to realize the full life cycle management of medical big data, this will obviously contribute higher value to the vitality of medical big data, the most important core asset.
From this perspective, Dell Technologies is empowering the digital transformation of hospitals through the power of data. Not only can it play a more important role in the construction of medical big data platforms, but it can also become a key cornerstone in the upgrade of smart healthcare. While promoting the evolution and iteration of hospital infrastructure architecture, a new chapter in the intelligent transformation of hospitals can also be written.
Make climbers more confident
It can be expected that with the acceleration of “new infrastructure”, the future medical industry’s transformation to smartness has become a general trend, and the widespread application of new technologies will also become a precondition for a new round of medical industry reforms. The road to the summit will never be simple and easy, and Dell Technologies continues to empower technology to the medical field, which will definitely make these "climbers" more confident and confident.
For example, as one of the "Top 100 Competitive Hospitals in China's County-level Hospitals", Cangnan County People's Hospital has cooperated with Dell Technologies to introduce Dell EMC VxRail hyper-converged solutions to comprehensively upgrade the data center infrastructure platform, which not only saves the space occupied by the computer room , Speeding up the installation and deployment of the system, improving the security of data and the manageability of the platform, the computing performance and storage performance have been greatly improved, giving more efficient support to the medical business, and greatly promoting the efficiency of medical services. .
In response, Dean Guo Tingjian of Cangnan County People’s Hospital said: “Introducing the Dell EMC VxRail G410 hyper-converged solution has increased the hospital’s IT maintenance efficiency by 81%, saved the total power of the computer room by more than 30%, reduced the total system scale by 25%, and reduced the maintenance burden. A reduction of 70%-90%, a 25% reduction in computer room space, and a savings of 1 million yuan in server costs alone. More importantly, if this program is not implemented, the hospital now has 30% of new business projects, including online appointments, online consultations, etc. The work simply cannot be carried out."
Similarly, Renshou County People’s Hospital has also introduced the Dell EMC Unity400 storage solution, which is designed to provide intelligent services for multi-application system data. Since the hospital introduced Unity400, it has improved the data service efficiency of its OLTP system. At the same time, it can provide different levels of response to the data access requirements of various application systems, implement hierarchical storage of data, deploy data protection strategies, and provide good expansion capabilities.
Renshou County People’s Hospital stated: “We chose to cooperate with Dell Technology because Dell Technology’s solution can solve the core problem of medical information security of hospital business without interruption and data loss. Its dual-active data center solution helps hospitals effectively prevent Business interruptions caused by disasters such as fires, earthquakes, and power outages. At the same time, a new generation of data protection solutions also effectively prevent data loss caused by human misoperation, virus intrusion and other logical errors. In general, these solutions achieve continuous data protection. It can support the hospital's business development in the next 3-5 years, and the effect is very satisfactory."
Whether it is Cangnan County People’s Hospital or Renshou County People’s Hospital, or the help partners mentioned at the beginning of the article to build "square cabin hospitals" at the critical moment when the epidemic is most raging, it is only Dell Technologies actively empowering customers in the medical industry A "microcosm" on the "road to climb" to complete digital transformation.
According to data, in the Chinese market, Dell Technologies is helping more than 3,000 hospitals to carry out digital transformation, which truly plays an important supporting role in accelerating the digital transformation of hospitals. At the same time, Dell Technologies continues to make breakthroughs and surpasses on the road of scenario-based innovation. It also realizes the value reconstruction of smart medical construction again.
In general, the digital transformation of the medical industry is like climbing a number of peaks, but no matter how high the peak is or how steep the steps are, you only need to move forward step by step, from quantitative change to qualitative change, and from qualitative change to a new quantitative change. After accumulating to a certain degree and then undergoing qualitative changes, such a cycle can finally reach the highest "Mount Everest". In this process, Dell Technology will always adhere to the concept of "intelligence with science and technology, empowering climbers" , Continue to encourage and shout for these "climbers" and pay tribute to the heroes who have the courage to climb the "Mount Everest" of digital transformation.
