The healthcare industry is experiencing unprecedented digital transformation. A large number of providers, payers, and public health organizations are designing their digital modernization strategies with the aim to migrate from legacy systems to new technologies for increased efficiency, reduced overhead costs, minimization of manual efforts, and successful remote collaboration. The digital transformation has created ample opportunities for IT service providers and product vendors as organizations look to implement their transformation roadmaps in the long and the short term. One such nascent, developing areas is high performance computing and has encouraged the most dominant and largest tech companies (which we refer to as Big Tech in this report), such as Amazon, Google, Microsoft, Oracle, and Salesforce, to foray into the healthcare industry.
