Case Study: Konica Minolta achieves secure, lower-cost, high-performance PostgreSQL for healthcare with EnterpriseDB

Why Konica Minolta Relies on Open Source PostgreSQL Database for Healthcare Providers

Konica Minolta Healthcare IT, a leader in medical imaging and software, found many hospital customers defaulting to familiar choices like Microsoft SQL Server out of concern for uptime, security and a lack of in‑house open‑source expertise. That fear of the unknown kept providers from considering PostgreSQL even when cost and performance advantages existed.

Konica Minolta moved its application to EDB Postgres and guarantees end‑to‑end support with a 24/7 team of Postgres experts, rigorous security and HIPAA testing, and no pass‑through licensing fees. The result: improved database performance and lower costs, greater customer confidence (and wider Postgres adoption across customers’ environments), and healthcare IT teams freed to focus on patient care rather than managing the database.
