In 2008, KaleidaCare turned to LightEdge to provide compliant colocation services for a portion of their IT environment. However, as KaleidaCare’s customer base grew, so did the demands on their infrastructure. KaleidaCare was quickly amassing a large customer base each with their own database of client information, patient medical records, and billing information. After determining that an additional investment to add physical servers to their existing environment was costprohibitive, KaleidaCare approached LightEdge again in early 2013. They decided to enhance their IT footprint through LightEdge’s high security, private cloud and cloud-delivered services. This included a network of storage devices that would enable the company to scale easily as it continued to grow.
