Case Study: Regional Healthcare Organization accelerates ACI migration and gains end-to-end visibility with NETSCOUT

Regional Healthcare Organization Accelerates New Data Center with Visibility

A large regional healthcare organization supporting more than 10,000 employees across several hospitals, surgery centers and 70+ care locations faced delays moving to Cisco ACI because they lacked visibility into all applications and their dependencies and couldn’t effectively monitor remote hospital sites. Multiple disconnected monitoring tools made it difficult for IT teams to share measurements, processes and reporting, jeopardizing critical systems that support patient care.

The organization deployed NETSCOUT’s nGeniusONE service assurance platform with InfiniStreamNG appliances, vSTREAM virtual appliances and the nGenius Unified Communication Collector to gain end-to-end visibility (including Citrix/EMR traffic) from the data center to remote sites. This accelerated the ACI migration by quickly identifying apps and dependencies with fewer resources, reduced MTTR, unified teams around common metrics and workflows, and improved both staff and patient experience.
