Modernise your data centre
Upgrade your infrastructure to align with your business objectives
Drive business value by modernising your data centre
While cloud computing offers many advantages, it may not always be the best fit for every workload or application.
Data centre modernisation can lead to significant cost reductions over time by improving operational efficiency, optimising energy consumption and reducing downtime. Finally, implementing automation into your on-premises infrastructure will remove management/maintenance burden from your team whilst also producing more consistent results through reducing capacity for human error.
Modernising your data centre is often the best option in a few different scenarios, such as when your organisation:
- has substantial investment in existing infrastructure and applications
- requires greater control over your data and IT resources
- has regulatory compliance requirements or security concerns that limit your ability to migrate certain workloads to the cloud
- needs to maintain low-latency performance for certain workloads

Enable your hybrid cloud
A modern on-premises data centre is a pre-requisite to successfully managing cloud-based applications and services, creating a flexible and scalable environment.
With a modern data centre as the basis of your hybrid cloud, you will benefit from:
- greater control and security for sensitive data
- compliance with regulations
- faster performance
- lower latency for specific workloads
- cost control for predictable usage.
Furthermore, leveraging virtualisation and automation within your on-premises data centre enhances the efficiency and resilience of the hybrid cloud infrastructure.

Use case examples
Data centre modernisation
If you are running legacy infrastructure that is reaching the end of life, modernising your data centre can help improve performance, scalability and reliability while reducing operational costs.
Modernising your data centre can enable you to support new digital initiatives, such as big data analytics, artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things (IoT).
In turn, these initiatives can assist you in gaining valuable business operations insights and thereby improve decision-making.
Enhancing your on-premises infrastructure’s security features, data protection measures and physical security as well as implementing auditing and reporting tools and compliance automation can help you to avoid compliance penalties.
Modernisation of your data centre can help you to ensure business continuity by providing advanced disaster recovery and backup solutions, reducing the risk of downtime and data loss.
Implementing virtualisation, automation and other energy-efficient technologies in the course of your data centre modernisation can reduce your energy consumption and environmental footprint.
If your current infrastructure is struggling to keep up with the demands of your business operations, upgrading to modern technology can help improve performance and reliability.
Modernising your infrastructure can help streamline management and reduce the complexity of your data centre environment.
As remote work becomes more prevalent, modernising your infrastructure can help ensure employees have secure access to critical business applications and data from any location.
In the course of modernisation, you can take advantage of new technologies to reduce costs, such as energy-efficient hardware and automation tools.
By enabling faster, more reliable access to services and applications, modernising your infrastructure can also contribute to improvement of the customer experience.
Systems management is now more efficient, which means our staff save time. With separate devices, there was more overhead. We also have support from Proact with maintenance and updates.”
