Challenge


The construction and digital transformation of public administration data center infrastructures is one of the cornerstones of the Italia Digitale 2026 plan, which has as its general objective the relaunch of Italy’s competitiveness and productivity.
In this context, a large body of the Italian Public Administration has launched an ambitious project to upgrade its IT infrastructures. In particular, the aim of the project is to strengthen and innovate the central IT infrastructures of the entity, make them interconnected and ensure their operational continuity and Disaster Recovery.
Italtel supports the PA in this process of digitization, innovation and strengthening of cybersecurity.



Solution


The project envisages a new integrated structure consisting of three Data Centers.
The three Data Centers are located in different places, but constitute a single interconnected pole, with full infrastructural integration of the elements and logical separation, by means of appropriate software configurations.
The project also allows the strengthening of the perimeter protection and access security component, based on Cisco and Fortinet technology, enabling the gradual decommissioning of obsolete IT systems and the use of virtualization technologies for processing platforms.




“The project, due to its complexity and size, represents for us a prestigious reference in the design and construction of network and Data Center infrastructures. We work alongside the customer, designing and putting the solution into operation so that operational continuity was ensured”


Giovanni Salerno, Head of the Public and Private Sector of Italtel.
