Oak, the architecture of Apache Jackrabbit 3Jukka Zitting
Apache Jackrabbit is just about to reach the 3.0 milestone based on a new architecture called Oak. Based on concepts like eventual consistency and multi-version concurrency control, and borrowing ideas from distributed version control systems and cloud-scale databases, the Oak architecture is a major leap ahead for Jackrabbit. This presentation describes the Oak architecture and shows what it means for the scalability and performance of modern content applications. Changes to existing Jackrabbit functionality are described and the migration process is explained.

REST & RESTful Web Service
REST stands for Representational State Transfer
REST web services communicate over the HTTP specification, using HTTP vocabulary
If a service does not include all constraints it is not a RESTful web service.
We use tokens to identify resources and try to ensure data security in insecure environments, however the management of these tokens can get quite complex. When we have distributed environments things are harder to deal with. Come to the magical world of JSON Web Tokens and make your life simpler!

/path/to/content - the Apache Jackrabbit content repositoryJukka Zitting
Looking for a database where user profiles and image galleries are equally at home? That comes with built-in full text search, fine-grained access control, flexible schemas, versioning and many more advanced features? Take a look at Apache Jackrabbit, the Java-based content repository that combines the best parts of file systems and databases. This introductory presentation covers Apache Jackrabbit and its hierarchical content model, and shows how it can be used as a powerful foundation of modern content-based applications.
In order to plan for automated or manual regression test execution, it's always efficient in the long run to prepare your regression testing framework. This paper presents a simple framework which can be followed on systems with any level of complexity.

How to Assess the ROI of Your Population Health InitiativeHealth Catalyst
In the brave new world of value-based healthcare, investing in population health management (PHM) is a requirement for success. Defining PHM isn’t easy, but there is one common term that appears among all the diverse interpretations—outcomes. Assessing the potential ROI for investments in PHM using a clear, understandable framework, can help organizations methodically identify and prioritize their PHM investments. While not every PHM intervention makes sense for every situation, it is important to determine which programs provide the most benefit, as well as determining when the investment will begin paying dividends, to achieve success in the era of PHM.
FHIR for Developers tutorial as given during the HL7 WGM meetings. Good introductory text for developers getting started with FHIR, HL7's new messaging standard for healthcare.
The presentation describes in brief the patients need, expectations and how to develop the patient care and feedback system to obtain maximum patient satisfaction.
In Pursuit of the Patient Stratification Gold Standard: Getting There with He...Health Catalyst
Even the healthiest among us would benefit from some level of care management, but resources are limited and patients must be stratified to facilitate prioritized enrollment into care management programs. Therefore, health systems need to identify not only high-cost, high-risk, and rising-risk patients, but also patients who are truly impactable.
This article explains how systems can use healthcare analytics, at varying levels of maturity, to improve patient stratification and, ultimately, achieve the gold standard:
Level 1 (where to start): use healthcare analytics to identify high-cost, high-risk patients in a population.
Level 2: use healthcare analytics to identify patients with rising-risk profiles.
Level 3 (highest level of maturity): use healthcare analytics to identify patients who are truly impactable (the patient stratification gold standard).
Analytics is key to achieving the patient stratification gold standard, but should enhance (not replace) clinical judgement. Stratification lists need to go through workflows in which clinicians remove patients that aren’t appropriate for enrollment.

Not Just ORM: Powerful Hibernate ORM Features and CapabilitiesBrett Meyer
DevNexus 2014
Hibernate has always revolved around data, ORM, and JPA. However, it’s much more than that. Hibernate has grown into a family of projects and capabilities, extending well beyond the traditional ORM/JPA space.
This talk will present powerful features provided both by Hibernate ORM, as well as third-party extensions. Some capabilities are brand new, while others are older-but-improved. Topics include multiple-tenancy, geographic data, auditing/versioning, sharding, OSGi, and integration with additional Hibernate projects. The talk will include live demonstrations.
Many global organizations face similar challenges around sharing information in a timely fashion between regions; for publishers this is often exacerbated due to the size of some their assets such as print quality images or video. Alfresco, with its open extensible architecture, makes a great basis for a global enterprise content or digital asset management system yet there are still numerous challenges to tackle when implementing on a global scale. Federation is one approach that can be used successfully when the regions are generally independent in the production of content, but are producing assets that can be consumed and re-used globally. Alfresco 4.0 uses Solr and that can be leveraged to provide federated search across multiple, disparate Alfresco repositories. This session will cover how: Federated search provided remote content discovery; Share was customized to handle federated search; Intelligent storage provided eventual consistency of files; and Users could request content migration on-demand.
SQL, NoSQL, Distributed SQL: Choose your DataStore carefullyMd Kamaruzzaman

HDFS has several strengths: horizontally scale its IO bandwidth and scale its storage to petabytes of storage. Further, it provides very low latency metadata operations and scales to over 60K concurrent clients. Hadoop 3.0 recently added Erasure Coding. One of HDFS’s limitations is scaling a number of files and blocks in the system. We describe a radical change to Hadoop’s storage infrastructure with the upcoming Ozone technology. It allows Hadoop to scale to tens of billions of files and blocks and, in the future, to every larger number of smaller objects. Ozone fundamentally separates the namespace layer and the block layer allowing new namespace layers to be added in the future. Further, the use of RAFT protocol has allowed the storage layer to be self-consistent. We show how this technology helps a Hadoop user and also what it means for evolving HDFS in the future. We will also cover the technical details of Ozone.

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.
Cold Sores: Causes, Treatments, and Prevention Strategies | The Lifesciences ...The Lifesciences Magazine
Cold Sores, medically known as herpes labialis, are caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV). HSV-1 is primarily responsible for cold sores, although HSV-2 can also contribute in some cases.
The dimensions of healthcare quality refer to various attributes or aspects that define the standard of healthcare services. These dimensions are used to evaluate, measure, and improve the quality of care provided to patients. A comprehensive understanding of these dimensions ensures that healthcare systems can address various aspects of patient care effectively and holistically. Dimensions of Healthcare Quality and Performance of care include the following; Appropriateness, Availability, Competence, Continuity, Effectiveness, Efficiency, Efficacy, Prevention, Respect and Care, Safety as well as Timeliness.

4. Server is pure FHIR
Not intended to handle other formats
No requirements from legacy systems
Do not require content conversions
Storage options very flexible
Can optimise storage
Can optimise indexing
Security considerations
Generic FHIR Server
5. Utilize a separate FHIR server
Content extraction
Content conversion
Storage/indexing/searching FHIR server
problem
Synchronization timing and scope
2 way changes?
Security?
Publish / Sync
6. • Expose a FHIR interface to existing system
• Content conversion on the fly as required
• Complexities of conversion of queries onto
existing structures
• Security applied by source
• If using views, updates can be challenging
• All server load is directly applied to the source
services/tables
• How to handle history?
Facade
7. Basically a Façade and a generic FHIR in one
Cache the content that was returned
Content required can be returned quickly
Security applied by source
Indexes can be:
• in replicated content
• views on the source data
• Synchronized from source data
Load an be minimized from the source data to the
cache content
History can remain in the cache
Cache
9. Native content format (xml/json)
Extensions stored in place
No need to assemble
May require object model conversion between
formats
Indexing considerations
• dedicated index tables outside data
• Sync or async updating?
• XML content indexes?
Consider how meta updates should be done
Can still use SQL Server!
blob store xml/json
10. Traditional database design model
All entities have their own tables and full ER model
Needs to be formatted for output
Challenges with extensions
Ensure model supports history
Just façade existing schema with extensions?
Atomised data
11. • Legacy database
• Extensions for additional columns
• How to handle updates
• How to handle incoming data
• Extensions?
• History?
• Searching?
View (Façade)
12. Depends on storage model
Timing - Synch/Async
Flexibility for new indexes
Simple Index on table
Dedicated index tables (common for blob style)
Data types in index - generic table/atomized
Effect on availability in search
Impact on applying security
Indexing for Search
13. • Blob store – fhir format
• Internal replication from relational store
• Extensions may only live in fhir store
• FHIR store covers history
• Indexing from either location
Hybrid
Not intended to be a platform or technology selector
Intended to assist in identifying your requirements and why the approaches might be appropriate
and get discussions going
The cover a little about the design of our sqlonfhir server
Health Intersections Reference Implementation, Spark, HAPI, Wild-FHIR
History is easy to handle in this model
Great if you are in a greenfields environment, but then again, why start again?
This is very similar to traditional messaging/integration engine scenarios.
Kind of like warehousing content
MyCareManager
History is handled by the FHIR server
Oridashi BP/MD fhir server, epic’s server
If the underlying store has no concept of history, this is very likely not able to be provided
Sqlonfhir
Update issues still have the same issues as the façade or synch approaches
Health Intersections Reference Implementation, Spark, HAPI, Wild-FHIR
History is easy to handle in this model
Great if you are in a greenfields environment, but then again, why start again?
Formatting typically via serializers/parsers on an object model, but could be done within database
Oridashi implements this approach
All these things effect the flexibility of the search system
