- Royal Australasian College of Surgeons moved its remaining on-premises workloads to HPE Private Cloud managed through GreenLake.
- The project is expected to reduce virtualization licensing costs and server infrastructure while supporting RACS digital services.
- HPE's fiscal fourth-quarter earnings call is scheduled for November 23.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise announced on Tuesday, November 10, that the Royal Australasian College of Surgeons has moved its remaining on-premises workloads to HPE Private Cloud. The customer win adds a new reference for HPE's hybrid and private cloud business ahead of the company's next quarterly update.
HPE said the RACS environment is managed through the GreenLake cloud platform. The company press release said the project targets savings of AUD 2.1 million over five years across RACS's on-premises environment and disaster-recovery site.
Cost reduction supports cloud transition
The HPE Private Cloud PC3000 installation has reduced RACS's annual virtualization licensing costs by up to 70% and cut its physical server count from eight to four. HPE also cited estimated annual energy savings of up to 21,000 kilowatt-hours.
RACS began evaluating alternatives after a proposed virtualization licensing renewal increased its cost by approximately 300% and required a three-year upfront payment, according to HPE. The new setup combines HPE Alletra storage, ProLiant compute servers and HPE networking switches. Deduplication reduced storage volume from 70 terabytes to approximately 35 terabytes.
HPE said the migration was completed ahead of the licensing renewal without disrupting member services. The company described the project as part of RACS's wider effort to modernize infrastructure and support future digital services, including disaster recovery and cloud storage optimization.
