Sharp

The Challenge

Legacy Infrastructure and Migration Complexities Sharp, a global vendor and distributor of electronic devices, faced significant hurdles in relocating its data center from Germany to the Czech Republic. The existing ICT infrastructure was at the end of its lifecycle, requiring a complete overhaul to ensure reliability and future scalability. Additionally, the customer's ICT team lacked migration expertise and resources, making it difficult to manage such a complex transition independently. The company was also considering an operational model change, further complicating the planning process. Without clear insights into the future ICT landscape, investment planning was nearly impossible.

The Solution

The next step involved building a new data center environment, designed to accommodate Sharp's evolving ICT requirements while ensuring scalability, security, and high availability. To minimize disruptions, the migration was executed in well-defined phases, ensuring a seamless transition without impacting business operations. As part of the process, we mapped all applications and infrastructure components, ensuring full compatibility in the new environment. Finally, our team provided ongoing operational support, helping Sharp maintain optimal performance and troubleshoot any post-migration challenges.

The Results

A Future-Ready, Optimized ICT Infrastructure The successful migration delivered substantial improvements in ICT efficiency and operational resilience:

• A modern, scalable data center with enhanced reliability and security.
• Minimal downtime and business disruptions through phased execution.
• Optimized infrastructure and application management for long-term efficiency.
• Seamless integration of third-party technologies, including SAP, Oracle, Citrix, Checkpoint, and Fortinet. Through expert consultancy, structured execution, and dedicated post-migration support, Sharp achieved a smooth transition to a more efficient, future-proof ICT environment.
