Cloud computing for healthcare systems in covid19 era

Abstract

In recent times, cloud computing services have appeared as a promising technology in the medical care sector, especially during the COVID-19 epidemic. In this epidemic, the size of the data developed from different resources is expanding, which requires advanced technology for the storage of the data. Cloud computing appears to be a poorly appreciated sector when it comes to healthcare because of its ability to provide new services at a reasonable cost. In addition, cloud computing gives a suitable environment for promoting collaboration among health workers, sick individuals, and other parties involved. It might be used to solve many issues in the medical sector, including storage capacity, affordability, and reforming resources. Cloud computing is also linked to enhanced accessibility, transfer, and recovery of health data, as well as quick availability of health records. In regard to decreasing the transmission of coronavirus 2, the utilization of cloud computing is regarded as an effective possible solution because the demand for online facilities has been expanding consequently. Nevertheless, cloud computing applications may have a continuous challenge in the area of security, as well as the accessibility of cloud applications, specifically for a medical care system that records and processes medical data. This paper will give an overview of cloud computing, its role in the medical care system by focusing on the coronavirus 2 pandemic, and its challenges in the medical care sector.
