Project Objectives
A clients’ server hardware and software had reached end-of-life and needed to be upgraded and replaced.
Specify and install new server hardware and software, using as little rack space as possible
Specify and implement offsite backup
Perform the works out of hours, in one weekend so that business could stop on Friday afternoon and continue as normal on Monday morning
Project Results
-
The client was happy with their new 1U virtualised server solution, reduced from a 4U physical solution
-
The end users noticed an improvement in accessing files and database, whilst seemingly “nothing changed” from a working point of view, allowing them to continue with their working days as normal
-
Zero downtime during working hours
