NRG Global Introduces Affordable and Easy to Use Load Tester for Healthcare Information Systems
CHICAGO, IL (HIMSS09) – March 31, 2009 -- NRG Global, a technology leader in application performance management, is introducing AppLoader Healthcare, an easy-to-use and affordable load testing solution designed specifically for healthcare information systems, at the HIMSS09 conference in Chicago. The new load tester simulates real user load activity for healthcare applications, so healthcare providers can be confident of an application’s performance before bringing it into a live environment.
AppLoader Healthcare verifies that a new or upgraded application meets expected performance requirements by simulating thousands of users accessing the application from multiple locations simultaneously. AppLoader acts as actual end users to give a true and accurate picture of end to end performance from a real user’s standpoint – for example, an application’s performance while accessing radiology records, admitting a patient, or verifying a medication order.
“Slow application performance ripples into significant consequences including lowered productivity, delays in patient care, even compromised patient safety,” explained Lywan Kummer, VP Marketing at NRG Global. “When launching a new application, upgrading to a new version, or migrating to a virtual system, it’s critical to know that your application can handle the expected number of end users without a degradation in performance.”
AppLoader Healthcare significantly reduces the overall cost of load testing. The affordable solution can test the behavior and performance of virtually any healthcare application in any environment – including Cerner, McKesson, Eclipsys, Meditech, GE Healthcare, Epic, and even custom applications – so organizations no longer need to purchase expensive licenses for each application or release.
In addition to removing the cost barrier, AppLoader Healthcare simplifies test development. Its innovative scenario builder makes it easy to create any sequence of end user actions, without scripting. And a built-in reporter gathers test data into graphs and reports that matter for healthcare IT teams, so it’s easy to see which processes are affected at what level of load.
NRG Global is showcasing AppLoader Healthcare along with their application monitoring solutions for healthcare at the HIMSS09 Conference held from April 4-8 at the McCormick Place in Chicago (booth 8133).
