Purchase of Server EOL VM Servers

Tender description

Cardiff and Vale University Health Board provide direct IT Support for nearly 15,000 staff and keep records and data for actively up to 500,000 patients at any one time. This can include stored information going back numerous years. The Health Board currently consume over one Petabyte (1,000 Terabytes) of active disk storage throughout all of the IT systems. The Digital Operations team try to replace servers and infrastructure hardware which is either end of life from the manufacturer or end of support. These servers will replace legacy HPE servers which are over five years old. This both standardises the server environment making it easier to manage, yet more importantly allows the Health Board to have a stable secure platform to build their applications and services on.
