Description
Information systems are continuously evolving in nature and complexity. In the healthcare environment, information and information exchange are critical for providing health care at all levels. Hence, the healthcare environment is particularly relevant when discussing IT infrastructure monitoring and disaster prevention since availability and communication are vital for the proper functioning of healthcare units, whether acting in isolation or on a network. This work focuses on understanding what comprises a good monitoring solution, analyzing the monitoring solutions currently available in the optics of a multi-location healthcare environment and, finally, proposing a pervasive and comprehensive conceptual architecture for a monitoring system that is capable of handling such environments.
