Edge Cloud's Image Cache
Edge Cloud's Image Cache

Setting up a local image cache with Edge Cloud means images are available much more quickly. The local image cache is a shared folder on your network that all of your other computers can see and access and houses your images. Your images are still stored in the cloud, but the cache also keeps a local copy of your images on your network.

Every image imported or manipulated in Edge Cloud is sent to our data center while also simultaneously stored in the image cache. This allows instant access to these larger files, without having to download them from the cloud, leaving more Internet speed for data.

Creating and Using Subgroups
Creating and Using Subgroups

A subgroup is a tool that allows you to pull a group of patients, responsible parties, professionals, referrers, appointments, etc., based off criteria that you select. One way to imagine this process is if you are taking all of the data in your database and pouring it through a strainer.
