An ageing virtualised estate and onsite backup systems were becoming costly to maintain. The onsite backup solution posed a business risk in the event of a disaster recovery situation.
In addition to the old equipment, JSR Group stipulated that any work carried out must have minimal disruption to the workforce and no loss of data.
Outdated virtualised infrastructure driving up maintenance costs and reliability concerns.
Onsite backup presented a critical business risk with no off-site recovery capability.
Strict requirement for minimal downtime and zero data loss during the migration.
Contrac applied a Consult, Transform, Support methodology to upgrade the infrastructure.
We ran an analysis on the existing IT core, enabling correct sizing for the new infrastructure.
We migrated the environment to a hyper-converged private cloud solution using Dell PowerEdge VRTX hardware and Dell blade servers. We repurposed old production hosts for off-site backup and disaster recovery using Veeam software.
We utilised VMWare and Veeam to migrate virtual machines to the new infrastructure without interruption to the business.
Streamlined environment with zero downtime during migration.
Delivered on time and within budget.
