The Web Infrastructure

The UCSF Radiology web sites are developed and maintained on its own servers. Presently the Radiology department has 3 Sun servers for web activities. Their configuration is as follows:

For increased security all servers are behind a firewall administrated by Todd Bazzill, and connected to the PACS’ UPS. All servers are backed up daily per Mark Day’ system wide backup schema.

In addition the Radiology department also has a streaming server hosted on the radiology file server (Mac OSX) administered by Matt Denton.
