Patent attributes
The present invention provides a system and method for integrating multiple health information sources across a distributed computing environment to optimize the retrieval of data from a plurality of health information sources. The method and system includes receiving, in a leader node, a query request from a client device. The leader node can be any available node within the multiple of nodes. The method and system includes the leader node receiving a list of search nodes for conducting the query request and generating a search routine for executing the query request via the search nodes. The method and system includes executing the search operations based on the search routine, retrieving search data by accessing each of the health information sources via the coupled search nodes. The leader node receives the search data, integrating the search data and transmitting the combined search data to the client device.
