We moved Client and Cost Management System (CCMS) in 2018 from Atos to 6Degrees hosting. This migration involved building a new disaster recovery (DR) site on Sparc hardware, doing a Solaris zone migration, then failing over to the new DR site.

This was always intended to be a temporary situation. Our Hosting Strategy is to use public cloud, and AWS.
