A combined 130,000+ professionals Working across 150+ countries Helping 120,000+ global customers, including the majority of Fortune 500 companies With numerous intellectual properties and accelerators How a London NHS trust harnessed cloud in the pandemic Central and North West London (CNWL) NHS Foundation Trust is one of the largest NHS trusts in the UK, providing integrated healthcare to a third of Londons population and South of England with more than 300 different health services across 150 sites as well as offering services to customers overseas. CNWL had to accelerate its transformation plans and migrate to a new private cloud system when the COVID-19 pandemic struck and changed overnight the way the world had to operate, with frontline healthcare provision more important than ever. CNWL turned to Rackspace Technology for guidance, support and implementation of a new digital platform fit for the future. Like most NHS trusts, CNWL has a plethora of legacy systems and infrastructure and must ensure robust security across them all, at all times. The potential risks to patient care involved in a large-scale, "one step" migration are simply unacceptable. Rackspace Technology worked with CNWL to modernize its infrastructure and reduce the time taken for some routine processes by two-thirds time that can then be better spent on clinical work.
