The foreign of-fices of SBI were operating out of three datacenters (DC) and three Disaster Recovery Centers (DRC) in India, USA and UK. The bank faced the high cost of operations, problems in version control of hardware, OS and database, and had difficulties to roll out new functionality across various datacenters. In order to resolve these issues, the bank decided to consolidate all DCs and DRCs to single locations in India. The project had to meet the objectives of consolidations of DC/DR sites in USA and UK into an Indian DC and DR site. It was decided to undertake the consolidation on new generation of hardware, operating systems and databases to take advantage of new technologies.
