Compliance & Security
Healthcare cloud on AWS
AWS offers HIPAA-eligible services and Australian regions for data residency. But running healthcare workloads in the cloud requires specific architecture decisions around encryption, access control, logging, and compliance.
Common challenges
What teams struggle with
Data residency requirements
Australian health data may need to stay in Australian AWS regions.
Compliance configuration
HIPAA-eligible services still need correct configuration — eligibility alone isn't compliance.
Cost management
Healthcare workloads with strict uptime requirements can get expensive without architecture discipline.
Disaster recovery
Clinical systems need defined RPO/RTO with tested failover procedures.
