Data Platform Modernisation - What does it consist of?
Upgrading
Upgrading the database technology is the first step, and it's a crucial one. It is vital your database is optimised, and by updating it to an improved version can massively improve the process.
Consolidation
Instead of having separate physical servers for each project – with their own hardware, databases and software, and their own individual support and maintenance overheads, you merge your solutions onto fewer machines.
Optimisation
Optimising the database to your business needs is the final piece of the puzzle. It results in better performance, recovery, provisioning and cost.
The Benefits of Data Platform Modernisation
Reduced Number of SQL Servers
Up to 80% less using MS SQL 2014 technology. There is no need to have dedicated servers for specific applications.
Instant Recovery with near minutes RPO/RTO's
Optimised and fully testable recovery for individual databases (and therefore line of business services).
Reduced Licensing Spending
By consolidating, you don’t buy as many SQL Servers as you previously did, consequently reducing your licensing spend.
Reduced Infrastructure Spend
You will use less rack space, fewer servers and storage and fewer Virtualisation/Network/Datacentre costs.
Lower Support / DBA Costs
With a standardised environment and tech, you’ll need fewer DBAs with more automated and optimised processes for maintenance.
Faster Provisioning
Deploy databases in a quicker and more manageable way.
Visibility
Understand what the current and future state of your data platform requires. Predict OPEX and CAPEX costs.
