Those are some good ideas @mseaton. Are any of them relevant enough to you and PIH that you’d want to take a lead role in them somehow?
Via email @maciej from the Soldevelo Foundation suggested a few ideas:
- Security overhaul for OpenMRS (can repackage this: Core Infrastructure Fund - opportunity for funding strengthening digital security and data protection in OpenMRS)
- Cloud-ready solution (similar to the OpenEMR products in AWS), with topics such as:
- Prepare production-ready images for cloud, update CI/CD pipelines to support new builds
- Adding multi-tenancy support
- Better and more consistent tooling and frameworks to support configuration of a distribution without writing Java code (eg. like bahmni config and including metadata management). Easier metadata management overall.
- Fix vulnerabilities and assure compatibility with standards (HIPAA, GDPR, etc.)
Time is very tight for this (indeed we are late to decide and start writing) since it’s due in 6 days.
On tomorrow’s Strategy/Operations call we will discuss these ideas, and select one. Please join that call if you want to be part of the discussion. (Or reply here before the call.)
