Case studies
Next DC Datacenters in the real world
Cloud & Infrastructure · Legal
Law Firm Grew Rapidly and Needed a New Office
A fast-growing law firm moved into a larger office and needed more than furniture. We delivered a complete technology fitout so lawyers and support staff could walk into a fully working, secure workplace from day one.

Moved Servers to Next DC Datacenters
A business running its core systems on two on-premise Hyper-V hosts, direct-attached storage, and a WatchGuard firewall needed a more resilient home for its infrastructure. We relocated the entire stack into Next DC Datacenters and connected it back to the office with dedicated dark fibre.
Cloud & Infrastructure · Enterprise
Hyper-V Replication Across Two Next DC Data Centres
An enterprise needed a resilient, geographically separated Hyper-V cluster with real-time replication between two Next DC facilities. We built a four-host, two-SAN environment connected by dedicated dark fibre and dual Dell switch stacks.
Connectivity · Construction
Connected Display Homes to a Next DC Data Centre with Cisco Meraki SD-WAN
A national home builder needed every display home to feel like a branch office: fast guest Wi-Fi for visitors, reliable internet for sales staff, and a secure tunnel back to the corporate data centre. We deployed Cisco Meraki access points and MX64 security appliances in each display home, using Swoop NBN or 5G as transport, and built a high-availability pair of Meraki MX200 security appliances at the Next DC data centre.

National Home Builder Turnaround After Malware Incident
A national home builder with 300 staff across seven offices was recovering from a malware infection caused by sales staff using personal machines on old file shares. We were engaged to clean up the previous MSP's mistakes, lift security and deliver fully managed support across all sites.

Hyper-V and Synology Cluster Replicated Across Two NEXTDC Datacentres
A client holding close to 900 TB of business-critical data needed enterprise resilience without losing control of their own infrastructure. We designed and built a two-site private cloud: Hyper-V compute clusters and Synology storage clusters in two NEXTDC datacentres, replicated for automatic failover, wired together with dark fibre to the client's office, and backed up over an express route to Wasabi using Veeam Backup & Replication. The office runs on Vocus 2 Gbps / 2 Gbps symmetrical fibre internet, sized for the traffic a two-site private cloud generates.
