Re: Experience with Satellite connections for DHIS2?

 

Hi Knut.

There's no cable in Solomons. Satellites are used in every province. We do
have all sorts of problems running the analytics especially but aggregate
data entry is mostly OK. Latency can be high, anywhere from 1200-1800ms on
average depending on the province. Did you have some specific questions
about this?

Nick
Hello list,

Has anyone been using DHIS2 over a satellite connection, e.g. Thuraya?

Bob told me this: "Satellite will be very high latency connection.  Dhis2
is well tested for low bandwidth requirements.  I am not sure how much we
have tested ajaxy stuff with high latency.  Of course it should work, but
there may be some unexpected user experiences."

Would be great to hear from anyone who has actually tried this.

Thanks,
Knut
