Case Study: South Yorkshire Housing Association improves service resilience with Node4 managed cloud solutions

South Yorkshire Housing Association cuts outages to zero with Node4 Ltd

South Yorkshire Housing Association (SYHA), a not-for-profit housing provider, needed to modernize its IT infrastructure away from traditional on-premises systems. Their challenge was to find a reliable, scalable, and cost-effective solution to consolidate multiple legacy providers and support a new cloud-first strategy, all while ensuring 24/7 access for their vital services. They partnered with Node4 Ltd for a tailored managed service wrap.

Node4 Ltd implemented a solution that included hybrid cloud, colocation, SD-WAN, and backup and disaster recovery. This resulted in a seamless migration with zero downtime and dramatically improved network reliability, reducing critical outages from several to nearly none. The measurable impact included 100% backup success rates and the flexibility to support remote work for 450 staff during the pandemic, allowing SYHA to maintain uninterrupted service delivery.
