With the MetaWorld archive service, you can operate your short-term on-site mini-PACS, and rely on finding older information stored safely in the MetaWorld archive. With these many choices for building a high-availability mini-PACS, your MetaProxy 500's versatility provides you with many expansion and growth options. If your needs increase and you evolve your business to having a full MetaPACS, your versatile Metaproxy 500 is re-used as a proxy or edge server, improving the performance of your MetaPACS, and you continue to get the benefit of your investment in your dependable mini-PACS appliance.

The MetaProxy 500 can operate as a VPN endpoint to a link-load-balanced multi-path connection with another PACS, such as a MetaPACS located in a remote hospital connected to the outside world by means of a MetaStrand solution. This provides the benefit of using the MteaProxy 500 as a mini-PACS in a remote office or imaging center affiliated with a hospital or health-care facility, and delivering images to their intended destination without needing expensive hardware.
