AWS HealthLake

Enterprise-scale FHIR Server

Build interoperable, FHIR-native applications and meet regulatory requirements with fully managed standards-based APIs

Overview

AWS HealthLake provides a fully managed, enterprise-scale FHIR R4 server that powers patient and member-facing applications without the operational burden of building and maintaining FHIR infrastructure at scale.

Benefits

    Sub-second query latency handling tens of thousands of concurrent FHIR requests across petabyte-scale datasets, purpose-built to power patient portals, member-facing apps, and real-time clinical decision support without throttling or provisioning headaches.

    AWS manages the infrastructure and API plus Implementation Guide conformance for ONC/CMS regulations (HTI-1, CMS-9115-F, CMS-0057-F), while you retain control of your data governance policies, access decisions, and application logic. Built-in support for SMART App Launch Framework and audit logging means the platform carries the compliance burden so your engineering teams can focus on delivering care.

    Start with a conformant FHIR R4 transactional API, then layer on bulk export, FHIR Subscriptions for event-driven workflows, integrated medical NLP for entity extraction, and zero-ETL export to Apache Iceberg, all from a single data store with no additional infrastructure to manage.
