Load balancing Canon Medical Systems — Vitrea & DelftDI
About Canon Medical Systems
Canon Medical offers a suite of enterprise imaging systems, encompassing applications by DelftDI and Vitrea VNA. Delft DI provides scalable PACS and RIS enterprise imaging systems, while Vitrea provides a next generation VNA, offering a flexible, service-oriented architecture.
For caregivers to work effectively, peak performance of these applications is crucial. Doctors demand instant image and data retrieval, zero downtime, and systems which are easy to maintain with simple security updates.
Key benefits of load balancing
In environments where study volume is ever increasing, clustering multiple load balanced Vitrea or DelftDI servers organisations with a solution that is:
- fast
- cost-effective
- highly available
- scalable
Loadbalancer.org specializes at delivering ultra-reliable, scalable medical imaging applications. In an industry where uptime saves lives, our extensive experience means we can design unbreakable solutions to enterprise imaging’s unique challenges.
How to load balance Canon Medical Systems
A typical deployment combines fast, highly available storage with unrestricted retrieval of images using our ultra-fast Layer 4 Direct Routing DR Mode, sometimes referred to as Direct Server Return (DSR). This is a very high-performance solution that requires little change to your existing infrastructure.
It is also possible to load balance a Canon server deployment using Layer 7 SNAT Mode. This mode might be preferable if making changes to the real servers is not possible. Due to the increased amount of information at layer 7, performance is not as fast as at layer 4.
By utilizing Layer 4 DR our entry level, Enterprise R20, is capable of environments of up to 500k studies/year. For anything larger than this then our Enterprise 10G offers an infinitely scalable solution at an unbelievably reasonable price-point.
Having partnered with top-tier healthcare vendors, Loadbalancer.org brings expert consultancy and support to all of our deployments. Our extensive experience in Enterprise Imaging means that we understand the challenges you face, and are ready to meet them with tried-and-tested solutions.
