Crib Notes Ready for SQL 2005 / Vista
Bryn Mawr, PA (PRWEB) June 5, 2007 -- Grand Rounds Software announced the Crib Notes product and all HL7 interfaces / engines are fully compatible with SQL Server 2005 and Vista. The software company has taken advantage of new features in SQL 2005 in preparation for hospitals upgrading to the newest Microsoft database. A partial summary of the expected changes is listed below:
Improved Database Mirroring / Failover Clustering - Crib Notes will benefit from increased reliability at the database level since SQL 2005 immediately reconnects to the secondary database in the event of a planned or unplanned failover. This model supports Zero Work Loss which makes Crib Notes far more powerful in a multi-hospital, enterprise environment.
Support for 64-bit architecture - For EMR applications, speed is essential. The latest version of SQL takes advantage of advanced memory addressing capabilities for buffer pools, caches, I/O operations, etc. for higher performance and greater processing power.
Report Builder / Reporting Services - In SQL 2005, academic and teaching hospitals will appreciate the focus on reporting capabilities which facilitates the extraction of massive amounts of data mined by the Crib Notes application far easier. Hospital staff may quickly manifest virtually any report for use across the NICU/Peds units.
Table and Index Partitioning - This technology will ensure that even excessively large NICU/Peds databases can be managed by SQL successfully without affecting performance.
Replication - Would you like your hospital to deploy a structured clinical database across multiple servers? Or do you manage databases across the Enterprise that must be identical? This technology presents a solution.
The above features focus on SQL Server 2005. The EMR solution offered by Grand Rounds Software also supports Oracle.
