My day job is Director of IT for a document management company. We scan around 60,000 images of paper medical records on a daily basis. We use a mixture of Linux and Windows servers and workstations, and my network pushes around 30 GB of data around per work shift. We're a small business (14 employees), and providing solutions for our customers is our priority, not just selling a service or project. Read on for how we use Lazarus in our day to day operations.

Mein Hauptberuf ist IT Direktor für eine Dokumenten Management Firma. Wir scannen ungefähr 60.000 Bilder von Papier Krankenakten täglich. Wir benutzen eine Mischung von Linux und Windows Servern und Workstations, und mein Netzwerk pushes ungefähr 30 GB an Daten around pro Arbeitsschicht. Wir sind ein mittelständisches Unternehmen (14 Angestellte), und das Anbieten von Lösungen für unsere Kunden ist unsere Priorität, nicht nur der Verkauf einer Dienstleistung oder Projekts. Lesen sie weiter, wie wir Lazarus in unseren täglichen Abläufen benutzen.

Ich bin ein starker Verfechter von Linux. Daher habe ich versucht, so viele Maschinen wie möglich im Büro auf Linux umzusatteln. Dies hat mir eine Mischung von Windows und Linux Maschinen hinterlassen, weil die Hauptanwendung, die wir nutzen um unser Produkt zu produzieren, nur unter Win32 verfügbar ist.

Generally what we do is scan medical records for large hospitals, and produce those on CD or DVD for archive purposes. The original paper is then shredded. Most of our customers access the information directly from the CD or DVD, but a few have special servers in place to act as repositories.

In the healthcare field, there is no one standard for management software. This has left us the task of integrating data we produce with our software into various types of management packages. Due to the large volume of data we work with, we have special servers designed only for document and index conversion.

Lazarus and FreePascal have allowed me to write very quick and easy (RAD) utilities that allow us to convert the data and images over to the appropriate format, after being exported from our own server. Since I have some machines in Linux and some in Windows, in most cases I'm able to compile the same conversion utility for either environment, depending upon what server is available at the time. The ease of the Lazarus IDE and RAD design allow us to take a basic framework application that I've developed as a series of objects and modify it for use for new formats as they arise, in a very short period of time.

We also aquired some tape backups from old AIX servers that have MS Word documents embedded within a proprietary database. Windows won't even recognize the tapes. Using a combination of Lazarus, OpenOffice and the standard Linux tape utilities, I'm able to extract the indexes and embedded documents from those tapes, convert them to TIFF images using OpenOffice and burn them in a format ready for import in a new system, completely unattended.

Lazarus is the glue that helps us provide that "value add" to our customers that many companies lack. Its RAD design, similarity with previous Pascal IDE's that we were already familiar with and cross-platform nature have allowed us to provide services we never would have been able to before.
