Immigration signs new data centre deal with CDC

[1] Australia’s Department of Immigration has signed a new $24 million four-year deal with Canberra Data Centres to migrate its onsite secondary data centre to CDC’s Fyshwick facility.

[2] It is currently hosting its secondary data centre from within its Belconnen office, which it finds unsustainable and looks to move it to the Fyshwick facility.

[3] The move to the new facility will not only be beneficial, but also implement the government’s 2010 directive that requires agencies to migrate data centre services to selected commercial facilities.
