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.
The server can be accessed at: http://mi2b2.slicer.org:8080/dcm4chee-web/
(Contact a mi2b2 researcher for username and password.)
This server is being populated by phantom datasets and anonymized generic data.
i2b2
XNAT
Initially XNAT Central is being used for testing. Optionally, an amazon instance may be set up to run XNAT locally.
