Ecosystems at Work

Introduction
Medsphere has fostered the creation of what is
rapidly becoming the largest collaborative, open
source ecosystem in healthcare IT.
With the seeds of disruptive innovation now planted around
the world, what will happen to vendor lock, proprietary
systems, upgrade and maintenance fees, and users groups
as we know them?
![Page 7: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)

What is an Ecosystem?
Collaboration on a community governed roadmap that drives innovation,
advancement and knowledge of clinical best practices into IT solutions for all
![Page 8: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Medsphere Vision
How is
Medsphere
cultivating the
largest
collaborative
ecosystem in
healthcare?
![Page 9: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• Activities� Freedom from vendor lock
� Focus on knowledge and services
� Competitive advantage for the community
� Encourages contributions from Ecosystem members
� Fosters governance of the collaborative contribution process
� Promotes a mechanism to review & reuse contributions
� Assures quality control of mainline - trusted for use in live healthcare environment

What is Medsphere.org for?
• A virtual town square – a location where members can stand on boxes and shout, swap ideas, debate approaches, and evaluate contributions.
• A place to get answers from us, customers, and others for support, programming, training, and implementation questions
• Share best practices…….eliminate silos of information and frustration
• And soon………monitor clinical quality outcomes against published data from clients like Midland and others!

How does it work?
• Participants collaborate, discuss and contribute to the
whole leading to transformation in Healthcare
• Contributions- Blog post on the value of BCMA

- Finally, Chris U of TIPG blogs with some amusing, but useless
factoids (Just like traditional organizations, ecosystems
require distractions too!)

Introduction to Open Development
Ben Mehling
![Page 17: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
SDLC Overview
Stages of the lifecycle:
• Product Definition – what will be built/fixed
• Development – how it will implemented, write the code
• Quality Assurance – does it work as specified
• Release Management – package everything together
![Page 18: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Product Definition
New Development (project or feature)
• Proposals
• Design
• Documentation
• Assign Priority
Defect Correction
• “Artifact” or Ticket created
• Verify the reported defect (QA & Product)
• Assign Priority
![Page 19: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Product Management
Who manages the influx of change requests and defect corrections?
• Ultimately Product Management, with input from:
– Customer Care
– Client Services / Field Personnel
– Quality Assurance
– Development
• Requests are channeled through a process that uses expertise specific Change Control Teams, and if necessary a higher level, Change Control Board.
![Page 20: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Development
• Agile-like Development Process
• Create a Backlog
• Plan a Sprint
• Work on individual tasks
• Commit Code to SCM
• Peer Review
![Page 21: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Quality Assurance
• Test Plans
• Manual vs. Automated Testing
• Agile means QA and Development work closely and in parallel (i.e., no throwing things "over the wall")
• Execute Test Plan and Approve Code
![Page 22: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Release Management
• Mainline Management
• Packaging
• Documentation

GT.M Integration Project
Jon Tai
![Page 29: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Background
• OpenVista runs on GT.M today, but...
– Difficult to install
– Difficult to configure
– Difficult to manage
![Page 30: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Project Goals
• Make it easier to install and manage OpenVista on GT.M
– Create Linux packages
• Push packages upstream in the future
– Build a web-based management console
• Standardize
– Codify best practices into tools
• Make it easy to do the right thing and difficult to do the wrongthing
• Verify that all OpenVista components run properly on GT.M
![Page 31: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Proposals
• Several proposals are available now on Medsphere.org
– Communities > sRoadmap > GT.M Integration
![Page 32: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Standardize Filesystem Layout
• Standardizing on common locations for files will allow us to build tools
• Where should GT.M be installed?
• How should the files in an OpenVista instance be organized?
– Where do routines, objects, globals, journals, and images go?
• What partitions should be created to hold the various file types?
![Page 33: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Globals and Journals
• How should globals be distributed amongst different database files?
• What journaling parameters should be used?
• What journaling actions should be taken on boot, shutdown, recovery?
![Page 34: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Linux/OpenVista Security
• How do user accounts at the Linux and OpenVista levels coexist?
• How can we secure programmer mode access?
• How can we take advantage of additional security features at the Linux level?
– iptables
– SELinux
![Page 35: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Web-based Management Utility
• “Namespace” management
• System status and monitoring
• User management
• Backups and journaling
• Log viewer
![Page 36: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Changes to OpenVista
• Fix compile errors when running on GT.M
• RPC broker / HL7 listener / VistaLink management
• Concept of namespaces
![Page 37: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Linux Packages
• RPMs and debs containing utilities
– Web-based configuration utility
– Backup scripts
– ... not OpenVista itself
![Page 38: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Next Steps
• We need the community to provide feedback
• What are we missing?
– Rick Marshall, VISTA Expertise Network
• How can the proposals be improved?
![Page 39: Open Development](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020306/54b600fd4a795954558b464a/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Next Steps
• Issue tracking / source code tracking
– launchpad.net
• Assign tasks
• Medsphere will host calls every other week
– We will post a poll for a day/time
– Present status to community
– Technical discussion
