Client success story
Staffordshire University data centre transformation
About the project
Based in the midlands, Staffordshire University champions innovation and is one of the top universities in the UK for computing and digital technology. In order to continue building on this pedigree, the university identified that it would need a new technology strategy moving forward.
Having worked with the university for over six years as their critical environment partner, Salute has an in depth understanding of the university’s requirements. As part of this project, the university was looking to migrate the majority of its IT services to the cloud and focused on two of the university’s onsite critical environments and included on-site disaster recovery.
In order to facilitate the new technology strategy, Salute was tasked with completing a strategic review of the university’s data centre estate, proposal development and evaluation and pre-construction services.
