Component 8; Unit 9: Creating Fault Tolerant Systems, Backups, and Decommissioning
Description:
This unit will discuss ensuring availability and resiliency through fault tolerance, data reliability through backup, and secure decommissioning of EHR systems.
Objectives:
- Define availability, reliability, redundancy, and fault tolerance
- Explain areas and outline rules for implementing fault tolerant systems
- Perform risk assessment
- Follow best practice guidelines for common implementations
- Develop strategies for backup and restore of operating systems, applications, configuration settings, and databases
- Decommission systems and data
