Our architecture helps you in reducing the total cost of ownership
Architecture
Our entire application is built using Java, Linux and Postgres Database. These software tools are free and so it saves you money in terms of licence fees. If the software were to be developed using Microsoft technologies, you would have to buy licences for server, database, etc. Chief advantages of our approach are as follows:
- Open source based architecture saves money since hospitals need not invest in costly software tools like Oracle, or MS SQL database and other systems.
- Our browser based client approach ensures that there is no requirement of installation of software on individual PCs of the hospital.
- Individual PCs for the end users need not have MS Windows thus saving about Rs 7,500 per machine.
- The memory requirements of the Linux desktops are smaller than with Windows Vista. That will also give savings of about Rs 1000 per machine.
- Hospitals need to invest much less in anti-virus software as Linux based desktops are far more secure
Insta HMS also works on Windows desktops and those who want to use our application on their regular Windows systems can use the application without any issue.
To cite an example, let’s ascertain the cost of a 50-user configuration with one main server and 50 PCs using Microsoft Technology. These are approximate costs and the actual costs may vary depending on the volumes and discounts one is able to get.
