HIPAA - I want to be able to build data pipelines against patient data without the data itself leaving the server. Having my dev loop live on the same server as sample data is better than working against fake or synthetic data locally

Doesn't that just mean that the data is constantly leaving the server every time you run analysis on it? Or at least the reports on said data.

Potentially but not necessarily. Two thoughts:
1) I may not need to see the data itself during most (or all) of my dev loop, but just see any errors that are thrown.
2) Taken as risk mitigation, data temporarily cached in your browser is less risk than data permanently stored on your laptop, esp. when the threat you are mitigating is lost / stolen laptop.
If the reports contain only aggregated or de-identified data (i.e. no PHI) then that is fine.

Aggregate reports are fine flying on and off. Individual-level data, exactly the opposite.
