EHCC Migration & Modernisation on AWS
HabileLabs, an AWS Partner, migrated Eternal Hospital, Jaipur (EHCC) from on-premises infrastructure to AWS and modernised its core systems: HIS, EMR, diagnostics and patient portals. HabileLabs now runs the platform as a 24x7 managed service.
Challages
Legacy Constraints
Fixed on-premises capacity could not scale with patient load.
Operational Overhead
Patching and monitoring were manual.
Availability
Clinical systems needed 99.9% uptime.
Integration
EMR, billing, diagnostics and pharmacy had to stay connected.
Data Protection
Patient records needed encryption, data residency in India and alignment with the DPDP Act, 2023.
Disaster Recovery
Backup and failover were manual and untested.
Solution
The migration ran in four stages: assess workloads and dependencies, mobilise a secure landing zone (AWS Control Tower, Mumbai Region), migrate in waves, then modernise and operate.
| Area | What was delivered | Key AWS services |
|---|---|---|
| Migration | Servers rehosted, databases moved with rollback paths | AWS Application Migration Service, AWS DMS |
| Compute & data | Auto-scaling app tier, managed Multi-AZ databases | Amazon EC2, Auto Scaling, Amazon RDS |
| High availability | Multi-AZ behind a load balancer, web protection | Elastic Load Balancing, AWS WAF |
| Security | Least privilege, encryption, audit trail | IAM, KMS, Secrets Manager, CloudTrail, Config |
| Storage & delivery | Secure records and imaging, fast report delivery | Amazon S3, Amazon CloudFront |
| Integration | Decoupled hospital systems, real-time alerts | Amazon SQS, Amazon SNS |
| Disaster recovery | Cross-Region replication, point-in-time recovery | AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery, AWS Backup |
| Operations & cost | 24x7 monitoring, automated patching, right-sizing | Systems Manager, CloudWatch, Compute Optimizer, Savings Plans |
Outcomes
| Metric | Result |
|---|---|
| Availability | 99.9% uptime |
| Disaster recovery | RTO under 30 minutes, RPO under 5 minutes |
| Operational effort | About 60% less manual work |
| Cloud spend | 25–30% lower |
| Security & compliance | Stronger data protection and audit readiness |
| Scalability & patient experience | Capacity scales with demand; faster access to reports and appointments |
