"mission-critical" is often misused when describing
computer applications. But in healthcare, the descripton fits
exactly. Healthcare applications often have life or death
dimensions-a patient's life can hinge on the instant availability
and accuracy of information in databases.

professionals responsible for healing and saving people's
lives would only choose proven database systems that meet
the most stringent requirements for performance and reliability.
