Modernising legacy IT

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

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.
