Business Challenge

Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, officially known as The Affiliated Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School, was founded in 1892 as the first Western-style hospital in Nanjing and one of the earliest modern hospitals in China. As a leading Grade-A tertiary general hospital integrating medical care, teaching, and research, it is also a national pilot unit for high-quality development of public hospitals and one of the first high-level hospitals in Jiangsu Province.

To achieve its goal of high-quality development and better safeguard public health and life safety, Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital is accelerating its digital transformation, aiming to improve overall management efficiency and service capacity. However, as the hospital deepens its information system infrastructure, it faces growing challenges in maintaining business continuity and ensuring data security. This makes it urgent to build a more robust disaster recovery system to guarantee the stable operation of critical medical services and the availability of vital healthcare data.
