BridgeLink®

The open source integration platform.

Route, transform, and monitor every healthcare message across your systems. Hardened, actively maintained, and deployed on your own infrastructure.

Capabilities

Everything the platform does.

One channel model for routing, transformation, and monitoring across every system you run.

Any-to-any routing

Connect any source to any destination over MLLP, HTTP, files, databases, and more. Route, filter, and fan out messages between systems that were never designed to talk to each other.

Code-driven transforms

Map any message format to any other with JavaScript and Java you can unit test. Channels live as code in version control, so every change is reviewable and promotable across environments.

Live monitoring

Watch every channel in real time with dashboards, statistics, and alerting. Full message history and audit make it easy to trace, debug, and replay anything that flows through.

Enterprise security

TLS, role-based access control, SSO via OIDC, and certificate management are built in. Harden the platform to meet your security and compliance requirements without bolting on extras.

Plugin ecosystem

Extend the platform with official plugins for SSO, access control, version history, and more. One catalog, one team behind it, built and supported alongside the platform.

Deploy anywhere

Run BridgeLink on-premise, in your private cloud, or on AWS. It is the same platform wherever it lives, so your data and your deployment stay under your control.

Security and compliance

Built to protect clinical data.

The safeguards healthcare integration demands, and the freedom to run them on your own infrastructure.

Encryption in transit

  • Add SSL/TLS to HTTP, TCP, and Web Service listeners and senders, so data is encrypted whenever it moves across the network.
  • Certificate management is built in, so keys and trust stores stay under your control.

Identity and access control

  • Role-based access control with named roles and per-feature permissions, so each user sees and does exactly what they should.
  • Built-in multi-factor authentication with any TOTP authenticator app.
  • Single sign-on through OIDC or Amazon Cognito, so BridgeLink fits your existing identity provider.

Auditability and data control

  • Full message history and an audit trail make it easy to trace every message through the platform.
  • Self-host on-premise, in your private cloud, or on AWS, so your clinical data never has to leave your control.

Compliance

The controls to support a HIPAA-compliant deployment.

HIPAA support

BridgeLink gives your team the technical safeguards a HIPAA-compliant integration deployment calls for: encryption in transit, access control, and a full audit trail. Deployed and operated correctly on your own infrastructure, it helps you meet requirements like HIPAA that mandate protecting patient data. BridgeLink provides the controls; your organization owns its compliance program.
