DAS UK Group

As part of DAS UK's move to consolidate two Bristol offices into one, all on-premise IT infrastructure was migrated to the cloud across two distinct projects. The first involved migrating their VM estate to VMware VPC on AWS, working with internal DC teams, architects and the VMware project team. The second migrated an on-premise iSeries solution to third-party data centres, incorporating a move from NetApps to Dell EMC with DRaaS.
