Case Study Overview
Derby City Council's public cloud migration ran into financial and technical difficulties due to unsuitable legacy workloads and applications.
CDW, in partnership with Nutanix, repatriated workloads to a new on-premise data centre, creating a hybrid infrastructure environment which better served the council's financial and operational needs.
Data centre costs have been reduced by 75% and the performance of applications is up by 40%.
"Migrating workloads back to on-premise is less common and more complex, requiring development of custom migration tools. This is something we couldn’t have done without the help of an expert partner like CDW."Alistair Taylor
