TORONTO, Ontario, Canada – April 15 , 2009
The Ontario Hospital Association (OHA), in partnership with Orangutech Inc., releases My Hospital Care out to the general public on April 15th.

My Hospital Care is a new website promoting better public access to hospital performance information that’s easy-to-understand and navigate.

myhospitalcare.ca allows users to learn more about how Ontario hospitals are performing by location, type of care, or one of 39 different indicators. The web site was built leveraging Microsoft SharePoint 2007 and housed within Microsoft SQL Server 2008 data mart. The choice for selecting Microsoft technologies for this initiative was based upon ease of content management and the need for several key integration elements that SQL Server 2008 best fit into. This web content management and business intelligence solution is a prime example how these Microsoft technologies can be leveraged for public consumption far beyond the typical practice of leveraging SharePoint for web content management alone.

Orangutech Inc. is proud to be a key contributor to the success of this rollout and continues to help support the Ontario Hospital Association on future betterment of healthcare across Ontario.

Sometimes, back to basics is a good thing. This session gives you everything you need to get a SharePoint firm built. Intranet, extranet or internet? Come learn the unique consideration of each scenario. We explore the role of each server and how you can assign them to various servers; with a discussion of how each roles scale. Then, we review suggested topologies to meet your deployment goals. And once you've figured out all of the pieces, we talk about the set up process. Lots of road blocks and account decisions to be made. And because it would be boring by itself, we will sprinkle in all kinds of practical real world topics to jazz things up. Cache, solution deployment, disaster recovery, code access security, and the secret to good brownies.
