EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Healthcare organization having medical centres with outpatient surgical facilities where they perform minimally invasive surgeries. They provide surgical treatment for gastroenterology, hernia repair, ENT, urology, etc. They are also into providing robotic-assisted surgeries for many surgical procedures.
CUSTOMER CHALLENGE
Offices and medical centres across different parts of the country needs to have a centralized control for IP infrastructure management. Reducing manual interference for local IT infrastructure as much as possible. Centralized administration of all the machines in all the branches across the region. Roaming home directories for the users who will be connected to facilitate logon on different machines in different regions.
PARTNER SOLUTION
Microsoft Active Directory was the first choice for Centralized Administration. AWS Directory service was thought about. But given the requirement of self-administration of all stuff and data security assurance, it was decided to host Active Directory inside a EC2 instance with good compute capacity. A redundant solution was required for this Active Directory Service, so 2 Read-Only Controllers with backup was planned to be deployed, so if main Active Directory server is taken offline for maintenance or for any issue troubleshooting, the backup AD or the read-only controllers would take its place for the time being for non-stop work in their different offices of the country. A centralized profiling of the home directory (Roaming profile).
