Data center networking
Switching, routing, and interconnect design for the rooms and cages that still matter — sized for how applications and users actually move traffic.

VRTG designs data center networking, Azure networking, and data protection architecture for commercial organizations that need the core to work with campus, voice, and security — not as a separate cloud catalog.
Senior engineers. East-west and north-south traffic treated as engineering. Multi-cloud integration when the business already lives in more than one place.

Switching, routing, and interconnect design for the rooms and cages that still matter — sized for how applications and users actually move traffic.
Hub-and-spoke, connectivity, and hybrid paths that meet your campus and security edge cleanly — not a default VNet left for someone else to unwind.
Backup, recovery, and protection design as architecture: what must be recoverable, in what window, and how that sits next to the network you already run.
When workloads already span providers or colo, we design the integration points — identity, connectivity, and traffic — so IT is not supporting three half-networks.
Data center and cloud work that accounts for campus networking, unified communications, and security enforcement — the same boundaries we design on specialty engagements.
DC design / refresh
New or aging data center networking that needs a real design
Azure networking
Hybrid or cloud connectivity that has to survive production
Data protection
Recovery architecture and protection design before a platform buy
Advisory
Multi-cloud integration, colo, or architecture review
Fixed-scope assessments are a strong first step when stakeholders need a clear design and budget story before committing to a refresh or cloud move.
Data center and cloud work at VRTG is infrastructure engineering, not a catalog of cloud SKUs. For how we approach production-aware network design — including environments where downtime is expensive — see our manufacturing campus switching case study.
Networking first
Data center and Azure work led by network engineers, not a generic cloud reseller motion.
Cross-stack reality
Campus, security, and voice sit next to the core. We design that boundary on purpose.
Senior practitioners
Engineers who design and deploy the systems they advise on.
Flexible engagement
Project, assessment, or advisory — structured around the constraint you actually have.
No. VRTG leads with networking, unified communications, and security. Data center and cloud is a practice we take when the core, Azure networking, or protection architecture is the real need — often alongside those stacks.
Yes. Hybrid paths are common. We treat Azure networking as part of the same design as campus and data center connectivity, not a separate workstream with a different vendor story.
We approach protection as architecture: recovery objectives, placement, and how backup traffic and failover sit on the network. We do not lead with a product list.
Often yes. We commonly own the networking and integration design while colo, cloud, or a general IT partner stays in place — as long as ownership is clear.
Azure networking is a core part of this practice. Multi-cloud integration consulting is in scope when the business already spans providers; we do not invent a multi-cloud product catalog.

Let’s walk the current design and the constraints that matter — a conversation with an engineer, no obligation.
