Brief Summary
Consulted on Data Center Infrastructure Design
In the foundational stage, we provided expert consultation on data centre infrastructure design, ensuring that Blue Amber's networking and security needs were meticulously addressed to support their system operations.
Architected and Deployed Centralized Data Center
After the engineering and design was done, we deployed the data centre on location ensuring complete coverage of the surveillance and smart home systems, while adhering to all laws and regulations within Zanzibar.
Engineered Advanced Cybersecurity Measures
Our engineering of advanced cybersecurity measures was comprehensive, securing not only the data centre but also integrating with the smart home features for each residential unit, enhancing overall digital safety.
Start of work with Blue Amber
Blue Amber was a massive real-estate development project in Zanzibar which partnered with the government to provide residents
with tax incentives and citizenship in return for purchasing a home. The project was intended to release in phases with the first one starting in 2021,
and with our team operating from end of 2019 to mid 2020.
Due to the scale of the project we mobilized 3 teams to the area, each one focused on one of the following: infrastructure, security, and network.
This way we ensured a smooth flow of communication and cooperation with the developer.
The Work
The cornerstone of the project was the datacenter itself, which was meticulously planed out by our teams in conjunction with the developers on-site engineers
and architects. The network infrastructure, which spanned the entire resort, was designed with seamless connectivity in mind using fibre links to connect
everything within the resort.
Security was the next step, where we implemented both physical and digital measures to secure the datacenter itself from potential
attacks. This included everything from cameras and alarms, to complex biometric systems. A simpler version of the security measures was also planned out for
each residential unit.
Finally, we designed the system the entire resort will run on. Taking into account every potential threat, attack, as well as every
potential need of the future residents.
Final results
With the infrastructure implemented, datacenter constructed, security and surveillance established, and the project completed, the contract was extended
for an additional month in order to implement a training program that can be used for the future training of security and IT personnel, which was successfully
delivered to the client.
Sadly, after all is said and done, the Blue Amber project was discontinued due to a land dispute between the client and another company,
with a potential to be restarted in the coming years should the court handle the case quickly.
And when it comes back, AllegianceTek team stands at the ready to fully
implement the next steps.
