Abstract

Healthcare is one industry where cloud computing has emerged as a game-changing technology that offers scalable, adaptable, and affordable solutions. In-depth analysis of the uses, advantages, difficulties, and potential future uses of This report provides information on cloud computing in the healthcare sector. The healthcare sector has a number of difficulties, including data management, storage constraints, security issues, and the requirement for smooth provider communication. By making it possible to effectively store, process, and analyze data, as well as to provide on-demand access to a shared pool of computer resources, and promoting safe and timely information sharing among stakeholders, cloud computing tackles these issues. In addition to managing electronic health records (EHRs), telemedicine, remote patient monitoring, data analytics, and medical research, the review highlights the numerous applications of cloud computing in healthcare. It looks at how cloud-based solutions boost data sharing, accessibility, and interoperability capabilities, resulting in better patient care, more efficient workflows, and lower healthcare costs. The paper also goes through the advantages of cloud computing in healthcare, such as scalability, affordability, and enhanced data security. It also discusses the difficulties and worries associated with data protection, adherence to legal requirements (such as HIPAA), potential data breaches, and the requirement for dependable internet connectivity. Overall, this evaluation highlights how cloud computing could completely transform the healthcare industry. To fully utilize the potential of cloud-based solutions, it emphasizes the need for strong security measures, adherence to regulatory standards, and ongoing innovation. Healthcare organizations may improve resource utilization, foster cooperation, and provide more effective, patient-centered care by utilizing cloud computing. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
