Deployment & Integration

The gap between a delivered box and a working system is where most of the risk in any project sits.

What this covers

Physical installation, configuration to design, integration with existing systems, data and service migration, testing against acceptance criteria, and a documented handover. We work to a plan with a defined rollback at every stage, because the difference between a good deployment and a bad one is what happens when a step fails at two in the morning.

How it runs

Implementation planning

Sequenced plan with dependencies, downtime windows, rollback points and communication.

Physical installation

Racking, cabling, power, labelling and structured documentation of the as-built.

Configuration and hardening

Build to design, applied baseline, credentials rotated, defaults removed.

Migration

Data, workload, service and number migration with parallel running where feasible.

Integration

Interfacing with directory, monitoring, backup, ticketing and existing platforms.

Testing and acceptance

Functional, failover and performance testing against criteria agreed in advance.

Documentation and handover

As-built drawings, configuration records, runbooks and knowledge transfer to your team.

Nothing is treated as complete until the acceptance criteria are signed and your team can operate it. An undocumented deployment is a dependency on us, and that is not what you are buying.

Discuss this with us.

Tell us the situation and we will tell you whether this is the right service for it.
