As patient care continues to evolve, IT teams have accelerated this shift from legacy, on-premises systems to cloud technology to more build, test, and deploy software, and fuel healthcare innovation. This is a critical challenge: When software breaks, finding the root cause of the problem may take time, fuel finger-pointing among teams.

Titus internally employs a cellular bulkhead architecture for scalability, so the fleet is composed of multiple cells. Many bulkhead architectures partition their cells on tenants, where a tenant is defined as a team and their collection of applications. We do not take this approach, and instead, we partition our cells to balance load.
