Move Faster. Scale Smarter. Compete Better.
Background
Clearwave Health, a healthcare technology vendor, offers cloud-based patient intake and eligibility solutions to clinics and hospitals nationwide. With a footprint in the SMB healthcare Independent Software Vendors (ISV) space, Clearwave Health manually processes sensitive patient information that must comply with HIPAA standards, while also supporting high availability (99.98%) and stakeholder-demanded day-to-day operational visibility.
Challenge
Clearwave’s existing AWS environment had been holding the company back with several issues. These issues created compliance risks and limited Clearwave’s ability to operate a scalable, resilient, healthcare‑grade SaaS platform. Fragmented logging made it difficult to maintain visibility into critical events, and manual, non‑standardized deployments led to inconsistent environments and operational bottlenecks. Weak IAM governance and limited SSO integration increased security exposure, while over‑provisioned compute and storage drove unnecessary costs. Additionally, the environment lacked proper tracking for HIPAA‑related audit requirements and had no automated mechanisms to detect configuration drift or enforce required safeguards—further heightening risk and operational strain.
”It was the ‘optimize-first’ approach that Optimum takes when servicing their clients that impressed us and seemed perfect for our cost control, automation, and compliance requirements without reinventing complexity.
