Case Study: Tegria boosts performance and reliability while cutting costs with Fortinet

Tegria boosts performance and reliability across 40+ customer EHR instances with Fortinet

Tegria, a healthcare technology provider offering managed hosting for electronic health records systems, faced the challenge of securely isolating its numerous customer instances within its cloud infrastructure. They needed to optimize network performance and reliability while also controlling costs. To address this, they turned to vendor Fortinet and implemented their FortiGate virtual Next-Generation Firewalls.

The solution deployed by Fortinet involved using high availability pairs of FortiGate virtual NGFWs to protect each customer environment, augmented with FortiGuard AI-Powered Security Services. Fortinet's Secure SD-WAN was also used on physical firewalls at customer sites. This implementation improved network resilience and performance for Tegria's latency-sensitive EHR system, streamlined failover, and accelerated threat detection. Critically, Fortinet's solution reduced the total cost of ownership, increased business agility, and required less staff time for day-to-day management.
