Pentaho Corporation recently announced that the Pentaho Business Analytics solution has been leveraged by Shareable Ink, a provider of enterprise cloud computing, in the creation of a new big data analytics platform for healthcare. The new platform, Shareable Ink Analytics, has been designed to enable extraction of clinical and operational data from input devices such as iPads and digital pens for visualization into dashboards and drill-down analyses and in the creation of reports.
In a release, Gerry Andrady, vice president of product management, Shareable Ink, said, "We wanted to spend time creating an innovative platform that was distinctly valuable to our audience and not spend time re-inventing in-house big data analytics functionality. Pentaho Business Analytics provides a cloud-based analytical platform to extract, prepare, and analyze loosely structured data, helping Shareable Ink to provide visualizations and sharing of this free-form healthcare information to a large population of healthcare users such as doctors, nurses, and administrative staff."
Healthcare organizations leveraging the Shareable Ink solution can carry out extraction of necessary non-digitized clinical data and include analysis into their day to day operations and workflow processes. The Shareable Ink Analytics platform accelerates the process of reviewing, reporting, and managing of real-time performance, ensures that compliance and efficiency metrics are met, and provides anaesthesia turnover times, and on-time case starts. By eliminating customized data management and analytics for individual hospitals and healthcare organizations the Shareable Ink solution brings down costs of IT infrastructure and provides healthcare organizations with a single and common data store, analytics and reporting platform irrespective of the kind of data being used.
Richard Daley, founder and chief strategy officer, Pentaho, said, "By pairing Shareable Ink with Pentaho, information can automatically be recorded, accessed, analyzed and visualized in reports and dashboards in as little as five minutes. Built for the future of analytics, Pentaho's easily embeddable platform allows companies such as Shareable Ink to cost-effectively deploy a big data solution that is efficient, fast, and scalable."
