I want to love this, as someone who has dealt with multiple EMRs as an engineer, and as a provider...
but no EMR is going to gain traction with documentation that has five bullet points for its backup discussion.
Even the linked "back up using our tools" is just "tar things up and run mysqldump".
There's no discussion of how to handle and maintain this on a system that may be available 24/7. It's possible to do these things, certainly, but no credence or weight is paid to the real world concerns of how often you should be backing up, state management, intelligent restoration. It's as much about the business continuity aspect as it is the technical.
