Load balancing Novarad NovaPACS

Loadbalancer.org facilitates the deployment of NovaPACS servers in a cluster, ensuring zero downtime and greatest resource efficiency. This provides a cost-effective, highly available, and scalable NovaPACS solution for environments where study volume is ever increasing.

By clustering servers behind a load balancer product managers can guarantee zero downtime and greatest resource efficiency. This provides a cost-effective, highly available, and scalable NovaPACS solution.

Loadbalancer.org are specialists in delivering ultra-reliable, scalable medical imaging applications. In an industry where uptime saves lives, our extensive experience means we can design unbreakable solutions to enterprise imaging’s unique challenges.

A typical deployment combines fast, highly available storage with unrestricted retrieval of images using our ultra-fast Layer 4 Direct Routing DR Mode, sometimes referred to as Direct Server Return (DSR). This is a very high-performance solution that requires little change to your existing infrastructure. It is also possible to load balance a NovaPACS server deployment using Layer 7 SNAT Mode. This mode might be preferable if making changes to the real servers is not possible. Due to the increased amount of information at layer 7, performance is not as fast as at layer 4.

By utilizing Layer 4 DR our entry level, Enterprise R20, is capable of environments of up to 500k studies/year. For anything larger than this then our Enterprise 10G offers an infinitely scalable solution at an unbelievably reasonable price-point.
