摘要：While the cloud computing benefits healthcare IT modernization, it introduces new challenges for data integration, which is crucial for information sharing, data mining and business intelligence applications. Data virtualization brings a new strategy and related technologies to cope with these challenges, particularly suitable for cloud data services and SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) applications. The paper discussed a unique architecture and related technologies to implement the data virtualization for cloud data. The paper also demonstrated how this technology can be used in the real-world applications, and a city-wide healthcare appointment system has been implemented for example.
