Infrastructure Risks

Risks of Aging Hardware & Unplanned Downtime

End-of-Life Server Hardware
Operating critical line-of-business applications on warranty-expired servers with no vendor replacement parts.
Untested Backup & Recovery
Assuming backups work without conducting scheduled disaster recovery restoration drills against real-world data loss.
Network Bottlenecks & Outages
Single points of failure across core switching and internet lines disrupting business operations during peak hours.
Engineering Benefits

Predictable Stability with AusNet IT

99.99% Availability & Clustering
Fault-tolerant Hyper-V and VMware clusters with automatic failover to prevent hardware-induced downtime.
Immutable Ransomware Protection
Air-gapped and write-once-read-many (WORM) storage repositories that attackers cannot encrypt or wipe.
Carrier-Redundant SD-WAN
Seamless sub-second failover between fibre and 5G internet lines, maintaining continuous voice and cloud connectivity.
Core Engineering Disciplines

Enterprise Infrastructure Capabilities

Virtualisation Architecture (VMware & Hyper-V)

High-availability compute clusters, vMotion live migrations, and hyperconverged infrastructure. We provide vendor-independent licensing analysis and seamless workload migrations.

Enterprise Storage & SAN Fabrics

High-throughput all-flash NVMe SAN/NAS storage arrays, iSCSI/Fibre Channel fabrics, storage deduplication, and automated snapshot management.

Next-Gen Firewalls & Network Architecture

Hardware-accelerated Next-Gen Firewalls (Fortinet, Cisco, Meraki), 10GbE core switching, VLAN network segmentation, and multi-site SD-WAN mesh topologies.

Disaster Recovery (DR) & Replication

Documented Recovery Point Objectives (RPO) and Recovery Time Objectives (RTO). We implement continuous off-site replication and conduct scheduled dry-run recovery drills.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions About IT Infrastructure Engineering

How do you help with Broadcom/VMware licensing cost increases?
Following VMware licence restructuring, we conduct independent hypervisor evaluations: assisting Australian clients with right-sizing VMware footprints, migrating to Microsoft Hyper-V / Azure Stack HCI, or transitioning workloads into Azure.
What is the 3-2-1 backup strategy and how do you protect against ransomware?
We implement a hardened 3-2-1-1-0 architecture: 3 copies of data, on 2 different media, 1 offsite in the cloud, 1 immutable or air-gapped copy that cannot be deleted or encrypted by ransomware, and 0 errors verified via automated recovery testing.
Can you design multi-site redundant SD-WAN networks?
Yes. We design and deploy enterprise SD-WAN topologies with automated carrier failover (e.g. primary fibre, secondary NBN/5G backup), prioritised VoIP/video QoS, and encrypted IPsec tunnels.
