Scalable Infrastructure for the Health Sector: Fujifilm Ensures Continuous Availability of Medical Services in Mexico with Xertica.ai

‍

In the health sector, technology is key to ensuring efficiency, security, and continuity in medical services. Fujifilm Mexico, a leader in imaging and medical solutions with artificial intelligence (AI), required a cloud infrastructure that optimized its operation and ensured stability, scalability, and constant availability of medical information to provide confidence to its clients.

Migrating to the cloud was a major step for the continued operation of Fujifilm's services, but managed services with continuous monitoring and proactive security were also necessary.

Therefore, although the initial challenge was to design an architecture that allowed better control over IT resources, ensuring data security and avoiding unnecessary costs, Fujifilm needed a team and infrastructure that ensured daily operation for its healthcare clients, adjusted resources according to demand, and protected its data.

Infrastructure Modernization and 24x7 Managed Services (MSP)

With the support of Xertica.ai, Fujifilm implemented a cloud environment optimized for security, performance, and scalability on Google Cloud. As well as 24x7 managed services (MSP) with a proactive approach that ensured optimized costs, real-time monitoring, immediate response, and compliance with security and compliance regulations.

Some of the key elements of the implementation included:

Centralized administration: Hierarchical organization of resources in Google Cloud.
Optimized infrastructure: Implementation of virtual machines (VMs) and VPC networks to improve connectivity and performance.
Advanced protection: Use of Cloud NAT to restrict public IPs and reinforce security.
Access control: Configuration of firewall rules to mitigate risks.
Guaranteed availability: Implementation of Google Cloud Backup & Disaster Recovery to ensure data integrity.

With this solution, Fujifilm Mexico optimized its cloud operation, with a more secure, efficient, and future-ready infrastructure. In addition, it experienced significant improvements in its operation:

Flexible scalability: Expansion from 13 to 265 productive virtual machines, demonstrating GCP's ability to support the company's growth.
Increased efficiency: Reduction in implementation and infrastructure management times.
High availability: Elimination of downtime, ensuring continuous access to medical information.
Increased speed: Optimization of GCP performance to accelerate the consultation of medical studies.
Agile deployment: Implementation of changes in minutes instead of weeks.
On-demand adaptability: Ability to respond to peak demands, such as the increase in mammography studies in the pink month in Mexico.
Stable and secure infrastructure: Implementation of advanced security layers that exceed the capabilities of the physical infrastructure.
Cost optimization: FinOps strategy to maximize efficiency in cloud spending.

Confidence and continuity in medical care

The collaboration between Xertica.ai and Fujifilm Mexico resulted in an optimized and constantly evolving infrastructure, ensuring uninterrupted operation so that the company can focus on its core business without worrying about managing its cloud infrastructure.

This success story reflects the trust that the health sector in Mexico places in Fujifilm, backed by the strength of GCP and Xertica.ai's MSP management. The combination of advanced technology and scalable infrastructure allows for better medical care, faster diagnoses, and a significant reduction in waiting times for the start of treatments, consolidating Fujifilm as a reliable technology partner in the healthcare industry.
