AI-Enabled Secure and Scalable Distributed Web Architecture for Medical Informatics
Source abstract
Abstract
Current medical informatics systems face critical challenges, including limited scalability across distributed institutions, insufficient real-time AI-driven decision support, and lack of standardized interoperability for heterogeneous medical data exchange. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a novel distributed web system architecture for medical informatics, integrating artificial intelligence techniques and cloud-based services. The system ensures interoperability via HL7 FHIR standards and preserves data privacy and fault tolerance across interconnected medical institutions. A hybrid AI pipeline combining principal component analysis (PCA), K-Means clustering, and convolutional neural networks (CNNs) is applied to diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) data for early detection of neurological anomalies. The architecture leverages containerized microservices orchestrated with Docker Swarm, enabling adaptive resource management and high availability. Experimental validation confirms reduced latency, improved system reliability, and enhanced compliance with medical data exchange protocols. Results demonstrate superior performance with an average latency of 94 ms, a diagnostic accuracy of 91.3%, and enhanced clinical workflow efficiency compared to traditional monolithic architectures. The proposed solution successfully addresses scalability limitations while maintaining data security and regulatory compliance across multi-institutional deployments. This work contributes to the advancement of intelligent, interoperable, and scalable e-health infrastructures aligned with the evolution of digital healthcare ecosystems.
