I have a client's company based in 3 locations with 3 servers with roughly 2000 users scattered, the requirements are as follows: hardware should be in the product range of IBM or HP. The Software requirement has to be upgraded to Microsoft windows 2008 r2 or windows 2012. Each location has one Windows Server 2008 supporting shared documents. The server hardware is currentlyis a standard HP ProLiant ML350 G6 with 2 TB.
I am initiating the infrastructure in location A which will link to the other 2 locations.
I understand this is a very broad scenario to work with however i am aiming forboth direct and indirect cost benefits and effective services with clear operational processes to ensure availability and continuity.
I have a budget of £130k and was looking for ideas on where to start?
Thank you for taking time to read this post, feedback would be much appreciated.
