PIMS can be installed locally on your hospital servers and interact with your own whole slide image storage facilities or we can provide you with a secure cloud based set up.

The PMA.core component manages access to storage media and will support:

• local hard disk (think conventional C: and D: drives and partitions)
• network storage like SMB shares (must be accessible via UNC \\server\path\to\data routes)
• S3-compliant cloud storage (Amazon AWS, Western Digital HGST, NetApp, Arvados, IBM…)
• Microsoft Azure storage (including Data Lake Gen 2)
• FTP servers
