Royal Australasian College of Surgeons Targets AU$2.1 Million in Savings With HPE Private Cloud

HPE
  • Royal Australasian College of Surgeons (RACS) migrated remaining on-premises workloads to HPE Private Cloud managed via the GreenLake platform.
  • The transformation reduced annual virtualization licensing costs by up to 70% & halved the physical server footprint from eight to four units.
  • RACS expects to save approximately AU$2.1 million over five years & reduce annual energy consumption by up to 21,000 kWh.
  • The new environment utilizes HPE Alletra Storage MP B10000, HPE ProLiant Compute DL360 Gen12 Servers, & HPE Networking switches.
  • Data deduplication achieved a 2:1 ratio, reducing storage volume from 70 TB to approximately 35 TB.
  • Migration was completed ahead of licensing renewal without interrupting member services or surgical examination systems.
  • RACS retired redundant development environments to lower maintenance, patching, & security requirements.
  • The decision was driven by a 300% increase in proposed virtualization licensing renewal costs & a requirement for a three-year upfront payment.
  • HPE Services & Champions of Change facilitated the migration strategy & technical validation.
  • The infrastructure supports future AI initiatives & digital services while maintaining local management capabilities for governance & security.
