The new managed hosting infrastructure will allow the organization system to focus on high-value strategic initiatives that improve patient care while optimizing the business of serving the Pacific Northwest community.

"Epic is a comprehensive electronic health records system that enables Seattle's Children's to maintain patient records, facilitating improved patient care coordination and data management," said Brian Lillie, President of Private Cloud. "The Rackspace Infrastructure Managed Services team seamlessly migrated the organization's Epic instance with a designated playbook with minimal impact on systems availability. In addition, Rackspace holds all the Epic certifications needed to implement the deployment and now to support the organization’s Epic infrastructure. We are the perfect partner to host and assist Seattle Children’s in managing this critical workload transition."
