Cloud & Data Centre

Hybrid is the normal state, not a transitional one. We design data centre and cloud estates as a single system — one addressing plan, one identity model, one recovery strategy — and we rehearse the failure paths before you need them.

Capabilities

What this covers.

  1. 01

    Migration & Modernisation

    Workload assessment, sequencing and cut-over plans with rollback defined for every wave.

  2. 02

    Virtualisation & Compute

    Hypervisor, storage and backup design sized on measured IOPS and growth, not spreadsheets of guesses.

  3. 03

    Disaster Recovery & Continuity

    RTO and RPO targets translated into replication topology, runbooks and scheduled failover tests.

  4. 04

    Colocation & Facilities

    Rack, power, cooling and structured cabling design with documented as-built records.

Outcomes

What you have at the end of it.

  • 01

    Recovery objectives verified by live failover, not policy

  • 02

    One identity and addressing model across on-prem and cloud

  • 03

    Cut-overs measured in minutes of downtime

Platforms we use here

The platforms we design, deploy and operate, grouped by the job each one does. Selection follows the requirement rather than a reseller agreement, and nothing here is a claim to any vendor's partner programme — it is a statement of what our engineers work in.
