Case Study: DLA Piper achieves scalable, secure global data hosting with Redcentric

DLA Piper - Customer Case Study

DLA Piper, one of the world’s largest legal service providers with 3,700 lawyers across 67 offices in 28 countries, needed a highly reliable, secure, and scalable hosting solution for critical global data. As the firm expanded rapidly, it wanted seamless access for lawyers worldwide, strong data protection, regulatory compliance, and a platform that could keep pace with growing volumes of sensitive information, so it selected Redcentric as its hosting partner.

Redcentric implemented a secure data centre hosting and replication solution, including a private hosting suite in Harrogate, London colocation, and data replication using NetApp SnapMirror technology, supported by a virtualised VMware environment. The result was improved business continuity, encrypted and compressed data transfer, quick disaster recovery, 24/7 monitoring, and predictable costs, while DLA Piper’s IT team was freed from infrastructure tasks; Redcentric’s £4 million investment in its data-centre security and technology helped underpin these benefits.
