Collection of services
orchestration of services to deliver cloud native experience
EHR.Network is composed of a collection of independent services working together to deliver the complete functionality for an EHR solution. All these services are designed to work in isolation and manage their data independently. They are also designed to be used together to achieve functional requirements through multi-service call flows.
While the functional architecture of EHR.Network is designed along the principles of an EHR architecture (EHRA) envisaged in ISO/BIS 18308 standard, the technology architecture has been designed with the Cloud Native paradigm in focus. This services architecture also implements the privacy by design principle to achieve segregation of data for data privacy.
Each of the services expose REST APIs that are consumed by the other platform services directly or exposed to applications through the API Gateway. All common platform functionalities, that involve more than one back end service, are implemented as multi-service call flows and exposed as a unified REST API. This ensures that the platform, while functioning as a collection of services, provides a unified monolithic view to the applications that use the platform.
The above architecture ensures that the platform, while maintaining privacy & security through segregation of data, also ensures standardized APIs and service level clustering for cloud scale performance.
As an EHR application developer, you can use a collection of these modules to achieve the functionality envisaged for your application.
