Infrastructure Modernization

Build for what’s next

Rebuild your compute, storage, and data center foundation so it’s ready for production AI and hybrid operations.

The Challenge

Your infrastructure wasn’t built for this

Three pressures are converging: Production AI demands compute, network, and storage that most existing environments can’t deliver. Hybrid operations require infrastructure that flexes between owned hardware and cloud, which legacy estates were never architected to do. And the longer aging infrastructure stays in service, the more it costs to maintain and the more risk it carries. Together, they leave the business running on a foundation it’s already outgrown.

The CBTS approach

Modernize what works. Replace what doesn’t.

CBTS modernizes across your infrastructure, so compute and storage are sized for today’s workloads and the AI demands around the corner. We help you create a data center strategy for retaining or replacing your resources. And we run it as one lifecycle, assessing against existing workloads, designing the right mix of owned, hybrid, and as-a-service infrastructure, and modernizing with minimal disruption. We can even operate it for continued performance.

Infrastructure Modernization capabilities

CBTS helps organizations build infrastructure that’s ready for AI, flexible across owned and cloud, and built to scale.

Where to start

Advisory engagements

A CBTS advisory is a time-bound, fixed-fee engagement designed to give you a clear answer to a specific strategic question — fast.  

SD-WAN and SASE Architecture Assessment

Organizations weighing an SD-WAN or SASE move that want a vendor-neutral architecture and roadmap before they commit.

You walk away with: 


  • An assessment of your current WAN and security edge vs. your business strategy
  • Recommended target-state SD-WAN/SASE architecture mapped to your sites, users, and cloud access
  • Prioritized gaps and risks, ranked by impact and cost
  • A phased, vendor-neutral roadmap to get there

What success looks like

Modern infrastructure pays off where the business feels it most: in speed, cost, and risk.

Business agility

Run production AI and hybrid workloads on a foundation built for them, not retrofitted to fit. The right mix of owned, hybrid, and as-a-service infrastructure lets you scale capacity where the business needs it without re-architecting every time.

Cost optimization

Modernize what still serves the business and replace only what doesn't, avoiding unnecessary rip-and-replace. Consuming infrastructure as a managed service with fixed-rate economics turns unpredictable capital cycles into predictable operating cost.

Reduced risk

The longer aging infrastructure stays in service, the more it costs and the more risk it carries. Modernizing the estate — backed by 700+ certified engineers and an HPE Triple Platinum Plus partnership — closes the gaps aging hardware leaves behind.

Frequently asked questions 

What is enterprise infrastructure modernization? Enterprise infrastructure modernization is the work of rebuilding compute, storage, network, and data center foundations so they can support current and emerging workloads, including production AI and hybrid operations. It can mean upgrading on-premises hardware, moving workloads to managed or as-a-service infrastructure, or building a hybrid estate that spans both. CBTS assesses the existing environment against required workloads, then designs and executes the right mix of owned, hybrid, and consumed infrastructure. 
What makes infrastructure AI-ready?

AI-ready infrastructure provides the compute, network, and storage capacity that AI workloads require to run in production rather than only in pilots. That typically means GPU-capable compute, high-throughput networking, and storage sized for large datasets, engineered to scale as AI adoption grows. CBTS AI-ready infrastructure services build that backbone so AI initiatives are not held back by the environment underneath them, and so the foundation can grow as models and data volumes expand. 

What is the difference between IaaS and public cloud? Both IaaS and public cloud deliver infrastructure you consume rather than own. However, they differ in economics and management. Public cloud is typically billed by usage, which varies month to month, and the customer manages much of the environment. CBTS Infrastructure as a Service is delivered as a managed service with predictable, fixed-rate economics, and CBTS operates the environment for you. For workloads that don’t need public-cloud elasticity, managed IaaS often provides more predictable cost and less operational burden. 
Do we have to replace all of our existing infrastructure to modernize? No. Modernization extends the life of infrastructure that still serves the business and replaces only what no longer does. CBTS assesses each part of the estate against the workloads it supports, then recommends a path for each: upgrade in place, move to hybrid or managed infrastructure, or retire and replace. The goal is a foundation ready for production AI and hybrid operations, achieved without unnecessary rip-and-replace.
