Key Outcomes
- 99.9 percent system uptime with automated disaster recovery.
- 35 percent reduction in infrastructure maintenance costs.
- 40 percent reduction in administrative overhead via self-service.
Overview
A leading national medical specialty board faced critical challenges with legacy systems that threatened its NCCA accreditation. Brittle, on-premises infrastructure required costly maintenance, created security vulnerabilities through deprecated components, and limited the board's ability to adapt, while the absence of a data strategy prevented actionable insights. Myridius delivered a comprehensive cloud transformation leveraging Microsoft Azure's Well-Architected Framework, executing a lift-and-shift migration, implementing a Trusted Data Foundation with Azure Data Lake and Data Factory, modernizing analytics with Synapse Analytics and Power BI, and optimizing databases on Azure SQL. As a result, the board achieved 99.9 percent uptime, reduced infrastructure maintenance costs by 35 percent, enabled real-time analytics supporting more than 15 KPIs, reduced administrative overhead by 40 percent through self-service, and strengthened NCCA accreditation readiness.
Client Context
The client is a leading national medical specialty board responsible for certifying physicians and maintaining accreditation standards.
A modern, governed data foundation mattered here because brittle legacy systems threatened the board's NCCA accreditation, created security vulnerabilities, and prevented actionable insights for stakeholders. What was at stake was both regulatory standing and the board's ability to deliver enhanced physician experiences and reliable certification operations.
The Challenge
Legacy systems threatened the board's NCCA accreditation. Brittle, on-premises infrastructure required costly maintenance, created security vulnerabilities with deprecated components, and limited the ability to adapt to strategic goals, while the absence of a data strategy prevented actionable insights and extended development cycles hindered enhanced physician experiences. The desired state was a resilient, cloud-first, governed data foundation.
Consider an accreditation review. Aging infrastructure with deprecated components posed reliability and security risks, while fragmented data and legacy reporting could not deliver the insights stakeholders needed. The combination put both compliance and operations at risk.
