Tietoevry

Tietoevry, the leading healthcare and welfare IT provider in the Nordics, is modernizing healthcare delivery through a modular, patient-centric approach. To realize this vision, Tietoevry selected Iguana to power the integration backbone of its digital health infrastructure—enabling interoperability across EHRs, imaging systems, labs, and third-party applications throughout the region.

In 2017, the company began developing a cloud-hosted Hospital Information System (HIS) built around openEHR standards. Their goal: support nationwide care coordination with flexible data exchange, vendor independence, and open APIs. But achieving this required a highly adaptable integration engine capable of:

• Managing real-time, high-volume data movement across mixed infrastructure
• Supporting a broad spectrum of protocols (HL7, FHIR, DICOM, SOAP, REST, file-based, and more)
• Scaling across both cloud (Azure) and on-premise Windows environments
• Accelerating rollout timelines and reducing long-term integration costs

After evaluating InterSystems, MDS, and other vendors, Tietoevry selected Iguana for its flexibility, speed of deployment, and lightweight design. Iguana’s scripting environment allowed the team to tailor integrations quickly, while its protocol support ensured seamless communication between diverse systems and devices across hospitals and municipalities.

Tietoevry also partnered closely with iNTERFACEWARE’s professional services team during early rollouts. This collaboration helped fast-track proof-of-concept development, optimize integration design, and keep implementation efforts lean—key factors in winning public and private sector tenders across Sweden and Finland.

Since 2018, Iguana has become a foundational component of Tietoevry’s Lifecare product family, helping:

• Consolidate integration across RIS, LIS, and EHR offerings
• Support openEHR adoption through API-first design
• Reduce technical debt by eliminating the need for multiple engines
• Maintain GDPR compliance with advanced logging and auditing features

With Iguana, Tietoevry is building a future-proof, interoperable healthcare ecosystem—empowering regions across the Nordics to deliver faster, smarter, and more coordinated care.
