Creating a data store - AWS HealthImaging

Creating a data store

You use the CreateDatastore action to create an AWS HealthImaging data store for importing DICOM P10 files. The following menus provide a procedure for the AWS Management Console and code examples for the AWS CLI and AWS SDKs. For more information, see CreateDatastore in the AWS HealthImaging API Reference.

Important

Do not name data stores with protected health information (PHI), personally identifiable information (PII), or other confidential or sensitive information.

To create a data store

Choose a menu based on your access preference to AWS HealthImaging.

  1. Open the HealthImaging console Create data store page.

  2. Under Details, for Data store name, enter a name for your data store.

  3. Under Data encryption, choose an AWS KMS key for encrypting your resources. For more information, see Data protection in AWS HealthImaging.

  4. Under Tags - optional, you can add tags to your data store when you create it. For more information, see Tagging a resource.

  5. Choose Create data store.

CLI
AWS CLI

To create a data store

The following create-datastore code example creates a data store with the name my-datastore.

aws medical-imaging create-datastore \
    --datastore-name "my-datastore"

Output:

{
    "datastoreId": "12345678901234567890123456789012",
    "datastoreStatus": "CREATING"
}
