Case Study: Santa Rosa Hospital achieves faster patient care and doubles service capacity with Oracle

Santa Rosa Hospital Boosts Performance with Oracle Engineered Systems

Santa Rosa Hospital, a private medium- and high-complexity medical center in Cuiabá, Brazil (founded 1997, ~910 employees), needed to improve performance, data security, and storage as patient volume grew. Critical applications such as prescription processing were slow, backups could take up to 24 hours, and the hospital risked downtime and data loss while running at near-capacity.

By deploying Oracle Engineered Systems (Oracle Database Appliance) and Oracle Cloud backup and storage services, the hospital centralized support, eliminated the need for multiple physical servers, and enabled failover to virtual systems during crashes. Backups dropped from 24 to 2 hours, query times fell from up to 3 minutes to 2 seconds, average emergency consultation time shortened from 15 to 6 minutes, and service capacity increased substantially—while cutting costs, freeing space, and meeting requirements for new international health IT certification.
