Central Government
Departments and arm’s length bodies are under increasing pressure to reduce legacy technology, improve resilience and prepare for future demands such as AI. Crown Hosting provides the secure, assured infrastructure needed to support both today’s critical services and tomorrow’s digital ambitions.
Why Central Government organisations choose Crown Hosting

Secure and resilient infrastructure
Government-assured UK infrastructure designed to support critical public services, sensitive workloads and demanding resilience requirements.
The priorities we help you meet
Three themes run through what departments tell us they need. Each one depends on the others, and Crown Hosting is built to support all three.
Modernising legacy IT
Legacy technology remains one of the biggest barriers to efficient, resilient public services, and government is focused on reducing it along with the technical debt that comes with it. Organisations need a low-risk route away from ageing infrastructure that keeps critical services running throughout.
Crown Hosting gives you a secure, resilient environment to move into, so you can reduce risk and modernise at a pace that works for you. It supports Cloud First, hybrid cloud adoption and your wider modernisation programme.
AI-enabled government
Government has set out ambitious plans for the UK to lead in AI, digital innovation and advanced computing. Delivering them depends on secure data environments, trusted governance and resilient infrastructure as much as on compute capacity.
Crown Hosting is a fast, government-assured route to AI-ready infrastructure. It supports everything from AI sandboxes and pilot deployments through to nationally significant compute and HPC programmes, without the cost and lead times of building or procuring your own facilities.
Sovereign digital infrastructure
Government is placing more emphasis on sovereignty, supply chain assurance and control over nationally important systems and data. Sovereignty covers operational control, governance, accountability and resilience as well as location.
Crown Hosting provides UK-based infrastructure with trusted operation and clear governance, so you keep control of critical systems and data while meeting your sovereignty, security and resilience requirements.
