nClouds AWS Case Study | Augmedix

How nClouds helped Augmedix automate and containerize their cloud infrastructure to improve scalability, deliver new features faster, optimize costs, and enhance security.
About Augmedix

Founded in 2012, Augmedix is a service, powered by Google Glass, that allows doctors to focus on what matters most: patient care. Augmedix simplifies how physicians use electronic health records (EHRs) by providing a technology-enabled documentation service for health systems and doctors.

They are on a mission to re-humanize the doctor-patient relationship and address the greatest pain point in the US healthcare system – the burden of documentation. The Augmedix service saves doctors an average of 15 hours per week, enabling them to see more patients and spend more time with their existing patients. As a result, there is increased provider satisfaction, improved patient experience, higher quality patient notes, and timely note completion.

Augmedix is partnered with several national health systems, serving tens of thousands of patients per month. To learn more, go to https://www.augmedix.com/

CHALLENGE

Augmedix needed an automated, containerized cloud infrastructure to improve scalability, deliver new features faster, optimize costs, and enhance security.

Augmedix required containerization to bring consistency across the environment, deliver the necessary scalability for their fast-growth startup, and enhance security. They wanted to optimize their time to market for new features by deploying a continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipeline. And, they needed to automate their web apps, services, data channel, and media streaming infrastructure to enhance performance efficiency.

“We selected nClouds because of their innovative culture and technical expertise in AWS. We partnered with them to build a containerized cloud infrastructure so that Augmedix could focus on new feature development.”

THE SOLUTION

nClouds' Solution Architecture for Augmedix

A well-architected infrastructure enables faster updates and decreased time to market. nClouds performed an AWS Well-Architected Review with Augmedix, which revealed architecture remediations that could be implemented to drive best practices in CI/CD. Following the Review, Augmedix asked nClouds to perform the remediations.

Augmedix’s new architecture has a containerized environment using Docker and Docker Compose (to bring up local environments) that employs best practices in cost optimization, performance efficiency, reliability, security, and operational excellence.
