MGRID is a clinical data platform designed to store large amounts of medical data with a high level of scalability, performance, security and unparalleled functionality. MGRID has specific features designed for healthcare organizations to not only overcome today's challenges, but also those of tomorrow and beyond.

Traditionally, patient information records have been electronically stored primarily for administrative purposes, such as managing invoices, whereas clinical information records have either been filed on paper or electronically stored offline in local equipment. However, with the advent of electronic health records, the amount of medical data stored and kept online has increased. Clinical Document Architecture (CDA), healthcare workflow, Clinical Decision Support Systems (CDSS), comorbidity and cross-organizational electronic communication all result in more data, more users and more queries. Healthcare organizations must find a solution to these increasing medical data management needs. MGRID provides an economical scaling solution with a low TCO.

The MGRID clinical data platform offers the following:

• Distributed query processing, which provides high performance in large (growing) data sets
• Built-in HL7 standard medical data types, which improve software quality and time-to-market.
• Column-level support for coded values, including the HL7 and SNOMED-CT code systems, which improves quality of information
• Automatic deployment and minimal database administration, which lowers system management costs
