Why Infrastructure Consultancy matters

illumo digital’s infrastructure consultants help you make informed choices about where and how to host your software. We assess your current setup and recommend options that balance performance, cost and risk.

• Hosting model: Choosing between private cloud, major public clouds (for example AWS), on-premises, or a hybrid approach.
• Capacity planning: Evaluating bandwidth, storage, expected user load and how easily the system can scale.
• Server and network architecture: Specification of servers, storage arrays, network switches, routers, cabling and dedicated network components such as firewalls.
• Resilience and continuity: Recommended backup strategies, load-balancing and maintenance routines to minimise downtime.
• Security & compliance: Identifying security controls and compliance requirements (for example GDPR) and gaps to address.
