Data Center Services Newsletter

The 79th Texas Legislative Session ushered in a new focus on technology collaboration. Through HB1516, the governor and state legislature directed agencies to take an enterprise approach to managing the state’s investment in information and communications technology.

Data center and disaster recovery services are one of the first areas for enterprise-wide coordination. On a scale not seen before in Texas, twenty-seven agencies—representing some of the state’s largest data center environments—will consolidate to gain economies of scale, share resources, and improve security and disaster recovery capability. This important project will raise the bar for infrastructure services in Texas and allow agencies to enjoy high-quality service at an affordable price.
