CTSC:ARRA:Mockup

Back to CTSC ARRA Supplement

Goals

The mockup installation allows the development team to conduct experiments outside of the clinical network environment.

Implementation

A set of virtual machine instances on the Amazon Web Services infrastructure allow our work to happen outside of the institutional firewalls. This minimizes the risk security issues on the clinical networks and allows developers to have control over server allocation, firewall rules, IP addresses, and similar issues that would otherwise require interaction with clinical IS staffs.

Servers

CentOS 64 bit linux is the standard OS used in this project (compatible with i2b2 standard usage).

PACS

The dcm4chee software allows implementation of basic PACS functionality.

The mi2b2 project provides instructions for installation on CentOS 64 bit linux.
