EPD Co. Ltd. Medical Software Company Why open source platform is the best platform For the PACS servers? Mehdi Saeedi, Dr. Afshin Niakan
EPD Co. Ltd. At least there are 4 main reasons for selecting Open source platform for the PACS and Dicom Servers • 1-Security benefits • 2-Reliability & scalability • 3-Performance • 4-Price www.epd.ir
EPD Co. Ltd. Securitybenefits • Many developers cite transparency, as the main reason open source software can be more robust than proprietary systems. If customers and developers can look at the code, they are more likely to find a bug and create a patch. • In a closed source model, customers must rely on the vendors to identify, diagnose and issue a patch, which can be a lengthy process. • Security Report: Windows vs Linux • Linux vs. Windows Viruses www.epd.ir
EPD Co. Ltd. Reliability & scalability • Linux kernel components operated consistently and completed all the expected durations of runs with zero critical system failures. Linux system performance was not degraded during the long duration of the run, the Linux kernel properly scaled to use hardware resources (CPU, memory, disk) on SMP systems. • the Linux system handled continuous full CPU load (over 99%) and high memory stress well, and the Linux system handled overloaded circumstances correctly. • IBM declared that these tests demonstrate that “the Linux kernel components are reliable and stable ... and can provide a robust, enterprise-level environment for customers over long periods of time.”. • The Evolving Windows Vs. Linux Battle www.epd.ir
EPD Co. Ltd. Performance • Linux with Samba surpassed Windows 2000 by about 100% and can handle 4 times as many clients. • PC Magazine published another comparison of Samba: • The later Samba software surpasses the performance of Windows 2003 by about 100 percent under benchmark tests. Linux and Samba can handle four times as many client systems as Windows 2003 before performance begins to drop off. • LINUX vs. WINDOWS www.epd.ir

EPD Co. Ltd. Performance Windows vs. Linux Design • Windows Design Viruses, Trojans and other malware make it onto Windows desktops for a number of reasons familiar to Windows and foreign to Linux: 1. Windows has only recently evolved from a single-user design to a multi-user model 2. Windows is monolithic, not modular, by design 3. Windows depends too heavily on an RPC model 4. Windows focuses on its familiar graphical desktop interface www.epd.ir
EPD Co. Ltd. Performance • Linux Design 1. Linux is based on a long history of well fleshed-out multi-user design 2. Linux is mostly modular by design 3. Linux does not depend upon RPC to function, and services are usually configured not to use RPC by default 4. Linux servers are ideal for headless non-local administration Windows vs. Linux www.epd.ir
EPD Co. Ltd. Price • For many reason we need to obtain licenses for our OS, databases, and other products especially in the server side. Open sours dose not mean free software, but they have a very low prices than the commercial software. www.epd.ir
