Seamless Integration with Existing Care Systems Relying on a standards-based approach (DICOM, HL7) and dynamic data definition (via XML), aXigate combines information for numerous systems with no impact on existing repositories and information systems. Solutions based on the aXigate platform interoperate with existing information systems in the way that avoids costly data migrations and custom interface development. This approach has enabled significantly shorter implementation timelines with no impact on existing systems and associated business processes.

Leading Edge Technology Combining an EAI approach with AJAX-based design, aXigate implements a native web-based foundation for comprehensive distributed solutions. Use of this proven technology in the third-generation web-based platform ensures reliable and secure information transfer, in full compliance with the IT security and safety policies already in place. Flexible object-based architecture provides the ability for rapid development of new modules, and configuration and adjustment of the existing ones, all without impact on the remainder of the system. Secure and private transfer of information through components of the aXigate solution is secured through a combination of audit modules, proven SSL-compliant encryption and roles-based information access infrastructure.
