CLOUD · DATA CENTRE · COMPUTE · STORAGE. BACKUPS

Infrastructure problems rarely announce themselves. They accumulate.

Server environments, storage, virtualisation, cloud workloads. These form the foundation of every application and service your organisation runs. When that foundation is well designed and properly managed, it is invisible. When it is not, it shows up as outages, performance problems, capacity crunches, and security gaps.

We design, build, and manage infrastructure environments for organisations that cannot afford for their systems to be a problem. Every infrastructure service is available as a project engagement or as part of an ongoing managed services arrangement. The scope, delivery model, and responsibilities are agreed before we start.

  • Server, storage, and virtualisation design and deployment
  • Cloud infrastructure: AWS and hybrid environments
  • Data protection and backup – including Druva and Veeam
  • Lifecycle management and capacity planning
  • Infrastructure security hardening

PROJECT OR MANAGED. OFTEN BOTH.

We build it. We can run it too.

Some organisations need a specific piece of work – a server refresh, a data centre migration, a move to hybrid cloud. Others need a team managing their infrastructure on an ongoing basis, handling patching, capacity, and incidents before they affect operations.

We deliver both. Because the same team that designs and builds the environment is the team that manages it, there is no gap between how something was built and how it gets operated.

Infrastructure Modernisation

End of life servers, storage environments that have grown without a plan, and virtualisation platforms that are no longer supported — these are operational and security risks that compound over time. We assess your current infrastructure, design a modernisation program, and manage delivery.

Infrastructure Optimisation

Infrastructure that was right three years ago may be creating risk and unnecessary cost today. We review your current environment, identify what should be refreshed or retired, and implement changes that improve performance and reduce ongoing overhead.

Cloud Migration and Hybrid Architecture

Moving workloads to cloud without a clear architecture plan tends to create new problems while solving old ones. We design hybrid environments that balance performance, cost, and security – then manage the migration in a way that minimises disruption to your operations.

Zero Trust Alignment

Zero trust is a design principle, not a product. Access to systems and data should be verified continuously, not assumed based on network location. We implement zero trust architecture across identity, access, and network segmentation in a way that is practical for your environment.

Data Centre and Campus Networks

Design, deployment, and management of data centre and campus infrastructure. Compute, storage, networking, and virtualisation – designed as an integrated environment rather than a collection of separately managed components.

Common questions about our infrastructure services

Answers to the questions we hear most often from organisations planning infrastructure projects or evaluating managed infrastructure services.

 

How do you approach an infrastructure modernisation project?

We start with an assessment of your current environment – what hardware is in place, what its lifecycle status is, what is performing well and what is creating risk. From that baseline we produce a modernisation plan that prioritises the highest risk items first and sequences delivery to minimise disruption.

We produce high-level and low-level design documents before any implementation begins. You see exactly what we are building before we build it. The same team that designed the environment handles the delivery.

Do you work with our existing vendors and licensing?

Yes. Most clients have existing vendor relationships, Microsoft licensing, and hardware under support contracts. We work with what is there, assess what should stay, and replace what is creating risk or no longer fit for purpose.

We hold partnerships with Dell Technologies, VMware, Cisco, AWS, Veeam, Druva, Microsoft, and others. Those relationships give us access to technical support and escalation paths that benefit clients directly. They do not drive our recommendations.

What does infrastructure managed services include?

Ongoing monitoring of your infrastructure environment, patch and firmware management, capacity planning, incident response, and regular reporting. Scope is defined clearly at the start so you know what is managed, what the response times are, and what falls inside and outside the service.

Infrastructure managed services are available as a standalone engagement or as part of our broader managed services offering that covers networking and security alongside infrastructure.

How do you approach zero trust for organisations that are not starting from scratch?

Most organisations cannot rebuild their environment from the ground up. Zero trust implementation for existing environments is about progressive improvement – identifying where the highest risk assumptions are being made and addressing them in a practical sequence.

We typically start with identity and access controls, move to network segmentation, then extend to application access. Each step reduces risk meaningfully without requiring a complete rebuild of the environment.

How do you manage the risk of disruption during infrastructure projects?

Staging and change management. Major changes are broken into phases with defined rollback procedures. Critical systems are moved during scheduled maintenance windows. We document the current state before anything changes so recovery is clean if something unexpected occurs.

For production environments where downtime tolerance is very low, we design migration paths that maintain service continuity throughout the cutover process.

How does governance and planning support day to day operations?

Good governance means decisions are made consistently and accountability is clear. For technology teams, that translates to cleaner change management, better visibility of risk, and less time spent resolving ambiguity about who owns what.

We help organisations implement governance frameworks that are proportionate to their size and complexity. The goal is structure that reduces friction, not bureaucracy for its own sake.

 

How do you handle cloud migrations?

Every migration starts with an assessment of what is being moved, what dependencies exist, and what the target architecture should look like. We do not lift and shift by default. If a workload is not suited to cloud as currently designed, we say so.

For hybrid environments we design the connectivity and security architecture alongside the migration so the result is an integrated environment, not a collection of separately managed pieces.

“Our infrastructure was becoming increasingly complex and difficult to maintain. The guys at Murdoch Webster simplified and stabilised the environment, improving performance and reliability without disrupting the business. We now have a platform we can depend on every day.”
