ClearData Raises $7 Million For Cloud Service Designed For Health Care Providers
Summary
It uses what it calls “chain of custody,” software and procedures to know where the data resides for full auditing as required by HIPAA, the health-care privacy law. By contrast, AWS runs all its data across commodity servers in clusters according to a shared, multi-tenant model. CEO Darin Brannan said in an email that AWS and Rackspace are not HIPAA-compliant and push a “shared responsibility model.” Compliance is up to the customer, requiring them to build out a cloud that meets the standards of the law. Like a lot of companies in verticals outside the technology market, health-care providers lack resources and are looking for ways to fix their problems. That provides an open space for ClearData, but it also leaves room for a new generation of competitors with more specialized or simpler-to-use offerings.
