Data Centre Strategy & Transformation

With software/infrastructure as a service and cloud compute dominating the current phase of digital transformation, the enterprise community continues to evaluate options for developing new and existing applications to drive innovation, enhance end-user experience, improve reliability, and lower the cost of end-to-end delivery.

Organisations operating legacy systems are required to compete with new entrants not constrained by the past, whilst disruptors are faced with a complex range of service options between self-delivery and hosting.

VIPA Digital can support businesses as they frame the requirement, evaluate their options and programme-manage an infrastructure transition to align.

Establishing & Optimising Data Centre Operations

Whether insourcing or outsourcing, there’s no one-size-fits-all operational model. The right approach depends on strategic priorities, portfolio scale, delivery structure, and any recent M&A activity.

Power Procurement & Management

Options surrounding the provision of a reliable, resilient and sustainable power supply are central to the design, operation and total cost of delivery for a modern data centre facility. Combined with Power Utilisation Effectiveness (PUE), the cost of energy will likely dominate the commercial model. In addition, the supply of electricity often presents an opportunity to mitigate environmental impact
