UltraLinq is currently using Influxdb for an internal API that tracks the state of work items. An example is, a doctor will upload an ultrasound, the state of that image/video is then tracked with Influxdb. Since our application has thousands of data points, InfluxDB gives us the ability to get really granular when it comes to tracking and reporting data. It is also relatively inexpensive to store data as opposed to something SQL related. Influxdb gives them the flexibility to handle thousands of data points at a time, making their application fast and efficient.

See your ultrasound and medical imaging exams in a new way. UltraLinq’s cloud-based ultrasound and image management solution can revolutionize your practice by providing physicians, technologists, and admins, with the most effective and seamless workflow for evaluating, sharing, and archiving your imaging exams and reports. Save time. Save effort. Save money.
