Enterprise Application Infrastructure DR & BC.

UK.

Provision of hardware, software, support and installation of a duplicate Enterprise Application Infrastructure platform to provide Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity for the King's enterprise applications.

500 000

King's College London currently houses all of its enterprise applications on an Enterprise Application Infrastructure (converged platform) supplied by Hewlett Packard. The platform remains fit-for-purpose and serviceable, but it represents a potential weakness as no Disaster Recovery or Business Continuity facility exists. King's College London is about to migrate much of its central ICT infrastructure to a new shared data centre, and the opportunity is being taken to extend DR and BC facilities wherever possible to provide additional resilience in support of the university's business. Maximum resilience and most cost-effective cover is provided by replicating as closely as possible the existing converged platform, which is designed and supported by Hewlett Packard, who have exclusive rights in the existing platform. Replacing both the live production environment and the DR and BC facility would more than double the cost of achieving the same ends.
