Case Study: Churchill Retirement Living achieves improved security and resilience with Blue Chip colocation hosting

Churchill Retirement Living - Customer Case Study

Churchill Retirement Living, a privately-owned developer of retirement apartments, was concerned with the low resilience and lack of redundancy of their on-premise IT infrastructure. They engaged technology partner Blue Chip to implement a colocation hosting solution to improve security, resilience, and connectivity while also reducing costs.

Blue Chip designed and implemented a colocation move of the client's IT infrastructure to their data center. They also provided new, faster fiber links between all company sites at a lower annual cost and installed a new FortiGate firewall to replace a rented solution. The results for Churchill Retirement Living included improved security, resilience, and connectivity, a significant decrease in operational costs, and a large reduction in expenditure for site-to-site links. A company representative noted users saw an immediate increase in performance.
