The Cloud Industry Forum (CIF) has partnered strategically with the secure health collaboration platform AnalystX – a key community within NHS England’s FutureNHS (FNHS).
The AnalystX workspace was created on 17 March 2020, just before the lockdown, to connect health & care professionals with data sources, analytics, and expertise to work together in virtual teams. It has become a place for collaboration and a thriving community for data-driven decision-making beyond typical organisational and geographic boundaries, connecting and empowering the data and analytics community.
As part of the partnership, Cloud Industry Forum will connect its members to this ecosystem to support the analytical community on products, techniques, knowledge, and frameworks. This will help learn and align the skills required to do more with less.
AnalystX Chief Evangelist Suki Panesar said: ‘’We are honoured to collaborate with the Cloud Industry Forum (CIF). This strategic alliance not only represents a significant turning point in our trajectory but also holds the potential to enhance the data and analytics community significantly as we begin to develop stronger links with CIF members. By integrating our respective capabilities with the specialised knowledge of CIF, our objective is to cultivate ingenuity and propel progressive thinking within the realm of cloud technology.’’
Cloud Industry Forum CEO David Terrar said: “It’s great to be a foundational strategic partner for the community and to contribute to the virtual exchange. The FutureNHS platform underlying AnalystX is both a cloud technology and tech for success story. I know our members have technology, frameworks, and playbooks that will help the community build solutions quicker and more effectively.”
Since its inception in 2017, FNHS has become a Tech For Good and NHS success story, enabled, scaled, and supported by cloud technology. It is used to help people easily connect, share, and learn across boundaries and has grown dramatically in terms of user numbers, impact, and value.
