Oracle Unveils Health Sciences Cloud

Oracle has announced that its portfolio of Oracle Health Sciences Cloud Applications will be powered by the next-generation Oracle Health Sciences Cloud, a scalable and secure software-as-a-service delivery platform tailored for the specific requirements and regulations of the health sciences market.

The enhanced Oracle Health Sciences Cloud delivers life sciences and healthcare applications with unparalleled performance, scalability and security. It supports the increasingly networked environment for research, clinical development, and healthcare delivery wherein data must be effectively and securely managed across multiple organisations, including life sciences companies, contract research organisations (CROs), academic medical centers, and regulators and outsourcing vendors.

Oracle Health Sciences Cloud is developed and rigorously tested for the specific security and privacy requirements of the health sciences industry. This HIPAA certified cloud provides full qualification and validation testing for each instance of the deployed application and is compliant with U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) 21 CFR Part 11.
