The electronic medical record (EMR) generates information on multiple aspects of patient care. Enormous datasets are now available describing patient behaviors, signs and symptoms of diseases, human– derived information, insurance claims data and pharmacy refill records, providers notes, and imaging. Regular database management systems we have seen in the past are not able to handle these huge datasets. To manage the substantial amounts of data collected about any one given patient, providers…
