Semedy’s Clinical Knowledge Management System (CKMS) will empower Clinerion’s Patient Network Explorer to integrate, manage and maintain multilingual terminologies, ontologies, and data dictionaries provided by Clinerion’s different hospital partners around the world. The various terminologies will be mapped to commonly used ones such as ICD10, ATC, SNOMED and LOINC. The resulting integration will enable scalable information exchange, semantic interoperability, and advanced analytics.

This complements Clinerion’s pre-existing proprietary patent-protected Ontology Management System by providing a system for managing and mapping the database of terminologies and ontologies powering Patient Network Explorer as Clinerion’s network of partner institutions continues to expand.

An advanced semantic reasoning engine powers Semedy’s knowledge management system to guarantee semantic and structural integrity of any knowledge base. The system includes an extensible and collaborative authoring environment, version control and lifecycle management, dynamic and static links between knowledge assets, and import and export services. CKMS can be used to curate and link terminologies, ontologies, information models, and decision support rules, among other types.

Patient Network Explorer is connected to hospitals and healthcare organizations around the world, currently comprising over 74 M patients in 135 sites in 19 countries. Data across the platform is harmonized and this allows users to query all the live hospitals in the network simultaneously, giving researchers a view over the entire patient data pool at once, for further analysis.

“Semedy is excited with the opportunity to contribute to Clinerion’s data integration and interoperability efforts,” says Roberto Rocha, Managing Director of Semedy. “We believe that our knowledge management platform will help Clinerion integrate and semantically enhance clinical data assets from multiple countries.”

“As Clinerion’s hospital network expands into more countries – and therefore more, different hospital information systems – Semedy’s knowledge management system will enable Patient Network Explorer to manage all the different terminologies, ontologies and dictionaries much more powerfully and flexibly,” says Ian Rentsch, CEO of Clinerion. “This will ease and speed up implementation of our system throughout the world.”

TAMPA, Fla. (PRWEB)

Infotel, a leading global software vendor of data performance and optimization solutions on IBM for z/OS, today announced the release of a new whitepaper outlining the best practices for bringing DevOps to the mainframe environment. The whitepaper titled, “DevOps is Here, with Its Eyes on the Mainframe: 7 Steps to Ensure Your Organization is Ready for Software Development in 2020,” offers actionable guidelines to implement the DevOps method on the mainframe for faster, more accurate software deployment and improved agility between enterprise Business and IT departments.

The whitepaper comes on the heels of Insoft-Infotel’s recent presentation at IDUG Rotterdam 2019 with Db2 industry expert Craig S. Mullins. Mullins’ presentation focused on the role DevOps plays in large enterprises, creating greater efficiency for application development on Db2 and a few tips on navigating the current mainframe practitioner skills gap.

Why DevOps for the Mainframe?

DevOps is the practice of operations and development engineers working together in the entire software service lifecycle, from design to the development process, to production and support. The end result is maximized app development and deployment speed, reliable operating environments and application quality, and synchronization between enterprise Business and IT. The DevOps approached has thrived in distributed environments where app development projects are smaller and development teams are in relatively close proximity, but implementing DevOps methods in a large, enterprise mainframe environment has its challenges.

“Mainframes reside in the largest organizations in the world in application environments that are much larger and complex than their distributed counterparts,” said Carlos Almeida, business analyst for Infotel Corp. USA. “DevOps is coming to the mainframe, but it will be more difficult to implement and this paper helps outline some best practices for it.”

Infotel’s whitepaper breaks down the fundamental changes needed for DevOps to work on the mainframe and provides IT professionals with insight on how to address the communication barrier between Business, Operations, and IT. Today, more than ever, development teams need to break down their inter-department silos and collaborate together to deliver high value resources for their company and thus their customers and profitability.

In this whitepaper, readers will learn:

1.    The history of DevOps

2.    DevOps’ impact on application development speed

3.    7 steps to successfully implement DevOps into your mainframe environment

4.    How to bridge the communication gap between enterprise Business and IT for improved software development
