Enterprise cloud archiving will be on the agenda for international IT solutions and managed services provider (MSP) Logicalis (News - Alert) on Thursday. The company's executives will speak at the VNA institute Technology Seminar as part of the HIMSS 2012 event.

Logicalis will present a discussion for the vendor neutral healthcare training organization on Thursday at 12 p.m. PT in Booth 4202. The event is taking place at the Venetian Sands Expo Center in Las Vegas.

Farmington Hills, Mich.-based Logicalis will present "Archiving to a Secure, Enterprise Cloud: The Business Case" at the event as part of the expert curriculum for the Vendor Neutral Architecture Institute of Technology (VNAIT). The event will take place during the HIMSS 2012 show. Karen Burton, a Logicalis U.S. healthcare business development manager, and Mike Martin, vice president of cloud services, will present the session.

The VNAIT is operated by TeraMedica, Inc. and is designed to provide healthcare professionals with up-to-date industry information through a convenient online setting. The organization offers education on healthcare informatics, taking learners beyond DICOM and toward meaningful use like ARRA and other global health initiatives. The end goal of the organization is to educate the industry.

The Logicalis Group is a division of Datatec Limited and employs more than 2,500 people throughout the world. The company's highly trained service specialists design, specify, deploy and manage ICT infrastructures for more than 6,000 corporate and public sector customers.

“Medical images will make up 30 percent of all storage by 2015," said Burton. "The current economics of supporting, storing, viewing, providing disaster recovery and integrating proprietary medical imaging software are simply unsustainable. Cloud-based, vendor neutral archiving is more affordable and provides greater service improvements, agility and risk mitigation.”
