Case Study: KIMS Hospital achieves cloud availability and 60% backup cost savings with Redington and AWS

KIMS Hospital cuts backup costs by 60% with Redington

KIMS Hospital, a leading multi-disciplinary healthcare provider, was facing significant business productivity losses due to frequent outages and failures of its on-premises Hospital Information Management System (HIMS). Their challenge was to achieve business continuity by migrating these business-critical workloads to the cloud with minimal impact on their Recovery Point and Time Objectives. They engaged vendor Redington to facilitate this cloud migration using Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Redington conducted a thorough assessment of the on-premises environment and executed a secure migration of 80% of the hospital's critical workload to AWS. The solution utilized services like AWS VM Import/Export, Amazon S3, and Amazon EC2, with security prioritized according to CIS guidelines. As a result, KIMS Hospital achieved high availability, automated key operations, and implemented a low-cost backup strategy. This new AWS-based solution saved over 60% in costs compared to their previous on-premises backup plan.
