Protect critical workloads
Map application, data, identity and network dependencies before migration activity is sequenced.
Infrastructure modernisation
Server replacements planned around workload continuity.
Replace ageing production infrastructure through a controlled programme covering workload dependencies, platform design, rack and power requirements, migration sequence and recovery.
Workload-ledRequirements before hardware
Continuity focusedCutover and recovery planned
Full environmentRack, storage, power and network
Reduce ageing-hardware risk without creating migration risk.
A server replacement is a production change programme. Hardware selection is only one decision inside workload, recovery and operating constraints.
Improve recovery confidence
Align redundancy, backup, power protection and recovery procedures with the importance of each workload.
Create a supportable platform
Deliver documented infrastructure with capacity, configuration and operational ownership made explicit.
Engagement scope
Infrastructure decisions resolved as one system.
Compute, storage, virtualisation, power, rack, network and recovery requirements are designed together.
01
Workload and dependency assessment
Establish application, performance, capacity, compatibility, data and recovery requirements.
02
Platform architecture
Define physical and virtual compute, storage, resilience and management requirements.
03
Rack, power and UPS
Resolve equipment layout, power draw, UPS capacity, cooling and structured cabling before installation.
04
Migration and cutover
Sequence workload movement, validation and rollback around acceptable service windows.
05
Business continuity and handover
Confirm backup, recovery, documentation, monitoring and operational procedures for the new environment.
A controlled transition from old platform to new.
The delivery method separates discovery, architecture, staging and production change so risks are resolved before cutover.
Establish workload requirements
Document dependencies, capacity, lifecycle risk and recovery expectations.
Define the platform
Resolve compute, storage, virtualisation, rack, power and network architecture.
Build and validate
Prepare equipment and configuration before production workloads are moved.
Cut over and hand over
Execute controlled migration, validate service and transfer documentation.
