Better Health for All

0

Nutanix's core business involves cloud software and hyperconverged infrastructure solutions, which are IT infrastructure and do not have direct positive or negative health impacts. The company's products are not associated with health risks, addiction potential, or direct patient care, making many health-related KPIs not applicable. However, Nutanix's solutions are used by healthcare organizations and are designed to support compliance with regulations such as HIPAA, GDPR, and HITECH, which are crucial for protecting electronic Protected Health Information (ePHI) and patient privacy.

One case study highlighted that Nutanix's solutions enabled a healthcare provider to reduce EMR login time from 171 seconds to less than 19 seconds, database backup time from 4-6 hours to 30 minutes, and disaster recovery time from 24-48 hours to 6 minutes, which can indirectly support healthcare operations.
