Data-Shield specialises in data centre IT solutions, providing a range of IT consultancy, data migration services, maintenance and network support services to large data centre enterprise customers and IT service providers.

Through our extensive expertise in both legacy and current generation data centre networking and data centre storage technologies, our clients can maximise the value of complex IT infrastructure and migrate to new architectures with confidence.

Data Centre Network Support Services

Data-Shield focuses on data centre network support services, supporting a range of IT equipment across the typical lifecycle including spares, upgrades, break fix, system assurance and security compliance. Our expertise also places us in an excellent position to deliver comprehensive data centre infrastructure management upgrades and data centre migration planning using Network Virtualisation technologies.

Because Data-Shield are entirely focused on Data Centre IT Support Solutions, we are able to offer a more comprehensive service than re-badged and OEM vendors. Our specialisation in a small range of technologies allows us to offer extremely cost competitive data centre IT support maintenance contracts backed by highly qualified technical expertise for remote assistance and onsite call-out across the UK.

With Data-Shield, your organisation can reduce the cost of training on Data Centre networking equipment, OEM support contracts and costly spares procurement. Our deep understanding of each core technology platform delivers independent and technically-adept data centre design, project management, implementation and data centre migration testing services to help organisations successfully migrate their IT legacy systems.

Data-Shield is the UK’s only data centre management specialist that provides technical support for networking equipment from manufacturers including Brocade, Cisco, McData, Qlogic, IBM, HP, HDS, NetApp, EMC, CNT, InRange, Ciena and ADVA.
