As a point of clarification... HIPPA is a federal law. PCI is an industry standard (VISA, Mastercard, etc). That does not mean one is better than the other, I just wanted to clarify.

Yes, I am aware of the difference but thanks for the clarification. My point was more to the fact that a specialized cloud provider could really fill a needed void here on both counts.
