IT Infrastructure
Infrastructure that does not match real needs can waste budget or make growth harder. The aim is to choose the right option, reuse existing systems and balance performance and resilience with running costs. Metatek supports assessment, design and implementation based on workload, system criticality and budget.
Servers & Virtualization
Assess workloads, application requirements and existing resources. Propose configurations, resource organisation and phased scalability. Scope may include physical servers, virtualised environments and related platforms as agreed.
Storage & Data Management
Clarify capacity, access speed, retention and data-sharing needs. Consider growth, permissions and storage options suited to business applications.
Network & Connectivity
Advise on and implement connectivity at offices, stores, warehouses or across sites. Clarify network structure, segmentation, device management and coordination with line providers.
Cloud & Hybrid Infrastructure
Assess which workloads suit on-premises, cloud or hybrid operation. Compare capability, availability, administrative control, data conditions and cost before choosing.
Backup & Recovery
Define the data to protect, backup frequency and recovery objectives. Design checks and restore tests to evaluate whether backups are usable in real situations.
Licensing & Lifecycle Management
Help standardise inventories, define licence needs, track terms and plan renewal or replacement. Licensing, support and warranty conditions are clarified per product and vendor.
Deliverables, responsibilities and handover conditions are defined within the agreed scope.

Reference workflow based on the service scope; not a live client system or client data.
Review remaining usable capacity, support lifecycle and upgrade potential before proposing replacement.
Define configuration and architecture based on application requirements, growth and operating conditions.
Assess scalability alongside usage, administration, backup costs and connectivity conditions.
No single model fits every business. Metatek compares options with you against the same requirements and usage assumptions.
Having backups does not by itself prove a system can be restored after an incident. You need to define priority data, recovery conditions, who is responsible and how results are verified.
Objectives are agreed according to system criticality, architecture and budget, and must be verified with a suitable approach.
RTO — Recovery Time Objective
The target time to bring a service back into operation after a disruption.
RPO — Recovery Point Objective
The acceptable amount of data loss, expressed as the time since the last restorable copy.
01
Gather the current state of devices, applications, data, connectivity and operating conditions.
02
Propose architecture, configuration and cost; clarify assumptions and responsibilities.
03
Agree timing, expected disruption, contingency and rollback conditions.
04
Execute to plan, verify configuration and confirm with relevant contacts.
05
Hand over documentation, operating guidance and support contacts as agreed.
Configuration, workload, lifecycle, warranty and application fit need checking. Metatek assesses reuse first before proposing additional investment.
Share the systems you use, current challenges and growth plans. Metatek will work with you to define what to assess and a suitable investment direction.
At a factory, a similar disruption may prevent the warehouse from receiving dispatch orders or delay production data updates to headquarters. Not every activity stops immediately when the internet goes down. But businesses need to know …
