Business Challenges

The news and media industries always come with the challenge to handle lots of data, images, and videos which need better database management, process, and presentation of data. Also, HealthCare IT News provides the news based on the different regions as well so it will be challenging to handle all different news on a single website.

Process and handle the massive amount of data.
The user should be able to notify once any news gets updated or added.
Needs to handle to a large number of videos on the website which should not affect the site performance.
Quick results on the news which users want to show with verities of categories and keywords.
The website should have multiple sets of areas where the admin can display different news lists or static contents.
