“Now we can operate for three hours on UPS if required and can use our backup generator to provide alternative power in the event of a loss to our mains supply.

“Previously, we were able to withstand a loss of power for about 20 minutes,” said James Dickman, Senior ICT Solutions Analyst, Newcastle City Council. The new data centre greatly improves Newcastle City Council’s ability to ensure service continuity and drives efficiency for a lower total cost of ownership (TCO). Applications hosted within the facility include council tax collection, social and library services, education and road traffic management in addition to support for other essential public service bodies such as the local National Health Service (NHS) and the Police. The goal of the digital transformation project was to increase resilience and improve the ability of Newcastle City Council to deliver e-government services to the 300,000 citizens and businesses within its constituency. The initiative included consolidation of existing data centre capacity, upgrades to the physical infrastructure and the deployment of next generation data centre infrastructure (DCIM) management software, which would improve reliability, increase energy efficiency and lower operating expenses (OpEx).ĭriving force and business/technology challenges, breaking conventional ideas
