Technical Architecture & Integration
Detailed deployment, integration, security, and monitoring architecture for IT architects and integration teams.
Deployment Architecture
Medda deploys on-premise within the hospital network, co-located with the EHR infrastructure. This ensures low-latency access to clinical data and compliance with data residency requirements.
Low latency • Full compliance
- EHR Infrastructure
- Medda App Servers (co-located)
- Full data residency
- Low-latency access
- Direct integration with EHR
AI inference in secure cloud
- EHR + Clinical Data
- Medda App Servers (on-prem)
- AI Processing
- Secure Cloud (e.g., GPU instances for heavy AI inference)
When hospital policy allows
- Containerized Medda
- Full Medda stack
- Consistent across envs
- Hospital IT approved
On-Premise
Primary deployment model. Application servers run within the hospital network alongside EHR infrastructure. Full data residency compliance.
Hybrid
AI processing can leverage secure cloud resources while clinical data and EHR integration remain on-premise. Encrypted communication throughout.
Cloud-Ready
Architecture supports cloud deployment where hospital IT policy permits. Container-based deployment for consistency across environments.
EHR Integration Matrix
Deep, production-proven integration across major EHR platforms.
| EHR Platform | Integration Type | UI Approach | Years in Production | Capabilities |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Altera Sunrise | Native Embedded UI + DB Monitoring | Embedded within Sunrise workflow | 15+ years | Full platform (CDIGPT, Growth Charts, Clinical Tools, Downtime) |
| Epic | Launch-in-Context | Web-based, context-aware | 10+ years | Growth Charts + platform expansion roadmap |
Security Architecture
Data Protection
AES-256 encryption at rest. TLS 1.2+ in transit. PHI never leaves the hospital network in standard deployments. All data access logged and auditable.
Access Control
Role-based access control integrated with hospital Active Directory. SSO through EHR authentication. Principle of least privilege enforced at every layer.
Audit & Compliance
Comprehensive audit trails for all clinical data access. HIPAA-compliant logging. Regular security assessments and penetration testing.
AI Safety
Human-in-the-loop validation for all AI-generated queries. CDI specialist review before physician delivery. No autonomous clinical decisions without human oversight.
Monitoring & Reliability
The same monitoring infrastructure that watches clinical events also watches itself.
Health Monitoring
Continuous self-monitoring of all application components, database connections, and EHR integration points. Automated health checks every 60 seconds.
Alerting
Multi-channel alerting for any degradation in service. Escalation procedures defined for every failure mode. Mean time to response measured in minutes.
Failover
Automated failover for critical components. Graceful degradation ensures clinical tools remain available even during partial infrastructure issues.
