Cardiff Metropolitan University in Wales has announced that it is relocating its primary data center to L block in the Llandaff Learning Centre. According to the university, the reasoning behind this move is due to its School of Technologies expanding into A block in January.
The relocation also means that the university has had to plan two total shutdowns of its systems. One shutdown was made between December 27-29, and an additional shutdown is scheduled for between January 7-9.
In a statement explaining the relocation, the university said: “It will deliver performance improvements to take us through the next few years, and the move is required to achieve audit recommendations and increase the security of our services and data.”
