In this interview, I sit down with with Matt Douglas, Chief Enterprise Architect at Sentara and Optima Health and Chris Logan, Executive Healthcare Advisor at VMware. You can check out the full interview at the bottom of this article.. Douglas shares why Sentara and Optima Health made the decision to move their Epic EHR to VMware vSphere and vSAN running on the Azure cloud. That’s a big decision for any organization. In fact, I asked Douglas if he was worried about virtualizing such an important application and moving it to the cloud. His response highlighted something we often forget. Not moving to a modern architecture that includes virtualization and the cloud carries many risks as well.
