В связи с санкциями, подумалось, что я бы не отказался от Великого Вайпа всех моих учеток всех сервисов (внутренних тоже) по Интернету.

Now I’m ready to learn about this fancy “computer programming” stuff I have heard so much about.

КМБ-4

This morning, I took my wife to the hospital for routine blood tests that had been scheduled for some time. Everything was going smoothly: check-in, number, waiting room. Suddenly, everything came to a halt and shut down. I was connected to the hospital’s public Wi-Fi and noticed that my connection also went down.

Having managed a couple of similar facilities, I immediately understood what had happened. I saw the staff panicking and calling the technicians, but they quickly reorganized within 10 minutes. They managed to process everyone who already had a number and then proceeded with the others in the order of their arrival. Despite the ten-minute delay (even though people started complaining right away), they were extremely efficient.

I later confirmed that the entire booking, check-in, and queue system is “in the cloud.” The hospital experienced a connectivity interruption, and all related services stopped. The staff no longer had access to anything, so a technician sent the lists to a manager via another channel, and everything resumed manually.

For years, I’ve insisted that certain things MUST be local. The healthcare facilities I manage have all the necessary systems for the operation of the facility internally, including patient records. External services like websites, emails, etc., are secondary.

Everything essential must always be accessible locally and, in special cases, it should be possible to physically access the servers and connect directly to them, bypassing any network/switch failures.

There has been only one interruption in the past, due to human error. Today, we have redundant servers (not HA on virtualizers, but two machines running the same software with replicated databases - on separate power lines) so such an issue shouldn’t happen anymore.

Not everything can be anticipated, but history is a great teacher. The Internet connection will eventually be interrupted :-)

When it comes to the health and survival of people, there are no compromises.

@stefano about 6 years ago a doctor asked me the best way to set up his new office and patients files. I recommended a server that was not connected to the internet to keep his patients records. The program on the web he wanted to use we could basically restyle to suit his needs. He found that idea unacceptable and went with a cloud based company. I often wonder how many times he goes down or needs to tell patients their files have been compromised.

@stefano I couldn't agree more. Choose whichever architecture you wish (IDK -even periodical local copies of cloud repositories if nothing else is available our supported by management) but ask yourself if critical services are really autonomous or else can be brought down by not-so-extreme circumstances and render basic vital information inaccessible. If I depend on a single wire (literally or figuratively speaking) I'm likely to run into trouble.

Yah my work moved their accounting/job/invoicing system to the cloud. It is annoyingly slow and I wish they just done hybrid but apparently they were never given that option.

But yeah, people aren't generally aware of how fragile infrastructure is.
