Taming Cloud Costs Helps Combat Global Health Crisis
The United Kingdom Health Security Agency (UKHSA) has led the effort to reduce covid infection rates and bring digital services to UK healthcare with investments in cloud technologies. As part of its cloud expansion, the UKHSA also needed a multicloud management solution. Read this VMware story on how the UKHSA has achieved economies of scale, cost reductions and efficiency gains with help from VMware.
How did the COVID-19 pandemic impact digital healthcare services?
The COVID-19 pandemic prompted hospitals and healthcare professionals to increase their reliance on digital technology for communication, diagnosis, and treatment. This led to the development of innovative digital healthcare services, such as the NHS Test & Trace Halo app in the UK, which helped track and mitigate virus exposure.
What is the role of the NHS Test & Trace Halo app?
The NHS Test & Trace Halo app, launched by the UK government, provided individuals with a tool to track their exposure to COVID-19. It facilitated contact tracing and allowed users to schedule vaccinations, contributing to a significant reduction in infection rates, with studies indicating that each user helped prevent at least one infection.
How does UKHSA manage cloud costs effectively?
UKHSA collaborates with VMware to implement a cloud financial operations framework using VMware Tanzu CloudHealth. This solution enables them to manage their multi-cloud environment effectively, identify unnecessary spending, and achieve significant savings, including over USD $120,000 in the first month alone.
