With the majority of its server estate approaching the end of its life and most of the infrastructure located in a single data centre with limited disaster recovery capability, the University turned to BT to upgrade it.

BT provided the University of Salford with a Cisco® Data Center 3.0 to support voice, data and a full suite of applications and services used across multiple campus buildings.
