Overview
Mackillop Catholic College Tasmania, part of Catholic Education Tasmania, embarked on a journey to modernise their IT infrastructure.
Partnering with ASI Solutions and HPE, the college aimed to overcome the limitations of their aging infrastructure and embrace a more flexible and resilient solution. Over the past year, ASI Solutions has worked closely with the school to implement an advanced Azure Stack on HPE’s infrastructure solution.
Challenge
Mackillop Catholic College faced significant challenges with its traditional 3-tier architecture, which had become outdated and inflexible. The aging infrastructure could neither scale efficiently to meet varying demands nor provide the level of resiliency and disaster recovery (DR) needed for a modern educational environment.
The school’s leadership recognised the necessity to modernise their infrastructure to ensure seamless operations and improved educational outcomes, prompting them to explore innovative solutions.
Solution
Leveraging the existing strong relationship with Mackillop Catholic College, ASI Solutions collaborated with HPE to design and implement a cutting-edge Azure Stack Solution on HPE ProLiant. This innovative approach provided the college with a hybrid cloud environment, seamlessly extending their on-premises capabilities to the cloud.
Results
The implementation of Azure Stack on HPE future-proofed Mackillop Catholic College’s IT infrastructure. The college now enjoys a modern, resilient, and scalable environment with the ability to burst out to the cloud as needed. This flexibility has significantly improved the school’s disaster recovery capabilities, ensuring greater operational continuity and reducing downtime.
Some of the key outcomes include:
The partnership with ASI Solutions and HPE has empowered Mackillop Catholic College to deliver a more robust and reliable educational experience, supporting their mission to provide quality education in Tasmania.
