How can healthcare providers ingest data into AWS?
Healthcare providers can ingest data into AWS using various methods. They can choose batch ingestion for one-time large data migrations using AWS Snowball or AWS Glue for Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) processes. For streaming data, Amazon Kinesis can be utilized. Additionally, a hybrid approach can be taken using AWS Storage Gateway for continuous data integration.
What storage options are available for healthcare data on AWS?
AWS provides several storage options for healthcare data, including block storage with Amazon Elastic Block Storage (EBS) and Amazon Elastic File System (EFS), object storage through Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3), and various database solutions like Amazon RDS, Amazon Redshift, and Amazon DynamoDB. This flexibility allows healthcare providers to choose the best fit for their data needs.
How does AWS ensure data protection for healthcare data?
AWS employs multiple security features to protect healthcare data. This includes encryption for data at rest and in transit, monitoring through Amazon CloudWatch, and controlled access using AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM). Additionally, Amazon Macie helps discover and classify sensitive data, alerting users to potential security threats.
