Torbay and South Devon NHS Foundation Trust
Torbay and South Devon chose Crown Hosting to replace a data centre hit by flooding and fire
The problem
The Trust's on-site data centre had experienced flooding, fires, security issues and an expensive connectivity failure caused by a collapsed duct. Maintenance costs were high and fixing problems took staff time that was needed elsewhere. Together these called the reliability, availability and security of its data into question.
The solution
The Trust began onboarding with Crown Hosting in spring 2024 after comparing the cost of fixing its own facility with moving. Because its hospitals need data around the clock, all data was migrated to loan equipment in a controlled way before the move. Crown Hosting set up and customised cabinets to the Trust's needs.
What it delivered
Hospitals need data around the clock, so it was moved to loan equipment in a controlled way first
Moving away from the flooding, fire and duct failure that affected the on-site data centre
A significant reduction in running costs expected, even after hiring loan equipment
If you've got important infrastructure and you need that reliability, Crown is the right place for you.
