Healthcare Provider Simplifies Application Packaging and Delivery With Virtualization
Overview Baptist Health, the largest not-for-profit healthcare provider in southern Florida, delivers high-quality medical care with the help of an IT environment that includes 8,000 computers and 700 applications. Packaging and delivering applications to workstations was time-consuming, complex, and costly. Baptist Health needed a way to quickly package and deploy a diverse set of applications, eliminate application conflicts, and ensure the continuity of mission-critical services. The company deployed Microsoft Application Virtualization (App-V), part of the Microsoft Desktop Optimization Pack for Software Assurance, to deliver virtual applications as services. With App-V, Baptist Health created an efficient, uniform application infrastructure that eliminated application testing and conflicts, cut staffing requirements, and reduced application time-to-delivery by 50 percent.
