Update on the impact of Data Center Performance Issues on EMS/Trauma Registry replacement project.
San Angelo Data Center issues have been resolved, performance has been restored to normal performance levels.
At GETAC, Dr. Valadez mentioned that state agencies were dependent on a statewide interconnected IT structure and that on Friday April 27th, the San Angelo Data Center (SDC), which provides Production application hosting for multiple Department of State Health Services (DSHS) applications, began experiencing performance issues. While these issues had already affected several disease registry replacement projects it had not yet affected the Trauma Registry replacement project but would if the server network issues were not resolved by May 31st.
We are pleased to announce that as of this morning (Monday May 14th ) the Department of Information Resources (DIR) communicated that the SDC issues have been resolved and that performance has been restored to normal performance levels. DSHS technical staff members are monitoring Production systems and conducting testing to confirm that performance is adequate at SDC.
