Specialist Services

On-premise servers and storage, supplied, installed and managed

Servicing businesses all over Australia.

Dell and HP servers, Dell Storage, Synology NAS, racks and UPS — delivered, configured and protected with Cove backup.

Hardware

Server and storage hardware we supply and install

Some workloads still belong on-premise. We help you choose, buy, install and support the right physical infrastructure without the usual vendor runaround.

Dell & HP Servers

Tower, rack and blade servers from Dell PowerEdge and HPE ProLiant, sized for your workloads — domain controllers, virtualisation hosts, application servers and SQL databases.

Dell Storage

Dell storage arrays for organisations that need high-capacity, high-performance shared storage, snapshots and replication for critical workloads.

Synology NAS

Reliable network-attached storage for file shares, backup targets, video surveillance and branch offices — easy to manage and built for small to mid-sized workloads.

Racks, UPS & Cabling

Server racks, power distribution, UPS battery backup and structured cabling to keep your on-premise equipment safe, tidy and easy to service.

End to end

We manage the full lifecycle

From the first sizing conversation to the day the hardware is retired, we own the project and keep everything documented.

Design & sizing

We audit your apps, users and data growth, then specify the right server, storage and redundancy for your budget and uptime needs.

Supply & procurement

We source Dell, HP, Synology and supporting hardware at competitive rates, manage warranties and keep delivery on track.

Install & configure

Rack, cable, install the OS or hypervisor, join domains, configure storage pools, set up networking and integrate with your existing environment.

Migrate & cut over

Move file shares, applications, databases or VMs to the new hardware with a planned cutover that minimises downtime.

Manage & support

24/7/365 monitoring, patching, health checks and remote support. We also manage SentinelOne and Huntress security on every supported server.

Backup & recovery

Cove backup agents protect your servers on-premise and off-site with immutable copies, scheduled restore tests and fast recovery runbooks.

Backed up with Cove

Every on-premise server and storage appliance we manage is protected by Cove backup. We capture full system images, file-level data and application-aware copies, with copies kept both locally and off-site.

  • Image-based and file-level backup for Windows and Linux servers
  • Local copies for fast recovery plus immutable cloud copies
  • Scheduled restore testing so you know recovery works
  • Recovery runbooks written and reviewed with your team

Use cases

Common reasons businesses still need on-premise servers and storage

Replace an ageing file server

Move from a tired tower server or NAS to a modern rack-mounted server or Synology NAS with fast SSD storage and redundant disks.

On-premise virtualisation host

A Dell or HP server running Hyper-V or VMware to host domain controllers, SQL and line-of-business apps locally.

Dedicated backup target

A local Synology or Dell storage appliance used as a Cove backup target, with copies replicated to the cloud for off-site protection.

Branch office server room

Compact rack, server, UPS and networking installed in regional offices where low-latency local access still matters.
