description
The Council is undertaking soft market testing and are seeking feedback from the market to help in benchmarking a potential data migration exercise to a cloud environment, which would allow to scope out (at a high level) the approach to cloud migration work that the Council would have to consider.
The Council has four (4) questions that it would like elicit feedback on. Overview of Requirements.
Overall Objective: Bristol City Council (BCC) is seeking to implement its strategy to migrate a significant number of systems and databases to a cloud environment by 25th November 2018. This is our critical milestone date.
The high level scope of the project is summarised as follows:
| • | Discovery and validation of BCC inventory of systems, data, databases and servers to be migrated by 25th November 2018. |
| • | Migration of the validated inventory to the target cloud environment to agreed time scales and standards of compliance, performance, cost control and quality of work. |
| • | To validate BCC cloud platform design for set up and optimisation through migration phases. |
| • | Ensure knowledge transfer to BCC to enable ongoing effective management of cloud platform |
| • | Recommendations for future systems and servers that could not be migrated to cloud |
| • | Disaster recovery (for critical services) and back up (for all production service) for cloud services |
The Council's current estate has the following footprint:
Our estate is comprised of 619 total servers, 549 virtual v 70 physical, 390 Windows v 209 Linux, 20AIX (Windows 2008 & 2012 and various versions of Red Hat (a few) and mainly Centos)
