Design principles
There are a number of principles that drive operational excellence in the cloud. Within healthcare, compliance is often a key consideration:
-
Develop a hub-and-spoke model for compliance controls: Many healthcare customers are subject to regulatory requirements. Mapping to a central control framework, such as the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) or HITRUST, simplifies mapping to multiple regulations in a hub-and-spoke model.
-
Align software and infrastructure development with applicable quality frameworks: Align development processes and tools with the quality frameworks that apply to your workload, such as ISO 13485 and ISO 14971.
-
Take advantage of AWS fully managed services and approved third-party solutions: Leverage managed cloud services and third-party solutions approved by your business criteria to simplify meeting regulatory requirements and maintaining a strong security posture. Managed cloud services also simplify the operations of managing your workloads.
