Healthcare informatics and analytics framework

Healthcare industry is constantly undergoing changes owing to the advancements made in its medical and technological dimensions. Healthcare Informatics has evolved over decades by leveraging upon best of the computer technologies available. It has come a long way from being just a database to a comprehensive source of useful information for analytics and research. Emergence of technology paradigms like Big Data, Internet of Things (IoT), Complex Even Processing (CEP), Cloud Computing etc are changing the way things were. Healthcare informatics is now at juncture to find a complete solution to all its woes by adopting an integrated solution framework based on Big Data, IoT and CEP. This paper proposes one such framework which can act as reference for implementing a holistic healthcare informatics and analytics ecosystem.
