EU Data Centre – Global Switch, Docklands • Tier 3 Data Centre. Fully redundant power & cooling • Can sustain 72 hours power outage • Dual 10 Gb connectivity – full resiliency thru entire path • Network Core & Distribution layers – scalable • Future expansion can be geographically separate • Hosts Vision and Provys for SPT EMEA 6

MC: Core IT Infrastructure Deliverables Media Centre – what do we know today? • The technical infrastructure will: • Generate approx. 1 TB per day of transcoded content • Include 180 TB of disk storage and 2. 1 PB of tape storage • receive approx. 1 TB inbound data per day • Generate 1. 6 TB of new content will be transferred to playout, per day (this includes approx. 365 GB/day of content to non-linear platforms) MC must interface with other applications & systems hosted elsewhere within SPE Media Centre components will be used by staff in Golden Square, Budapest and Madrid. Within Golden Square there will be new work areas developed What will IT deliver? Build the Data Centre! Space, power, equipment racks, cabling etc. . Build the Data Centre Network Infrastructure - ensure interoperability with the rest of the SPE network Ensure sufficient connectivity to & from Media Centre Amend/upgrade the Golden Square office network Allow for future expansion Provide ongoing support

Media Centre – Next Steps for IT? What are the actual data centre power, space & cabling requirements? Refine IT scope further! What are the exact locations of the users? What are the client requirements per location? What are the projected future changes? Obtain vendor quotes for network Bill of Material + hosting setup and recurring charges Refine IT infrastructure delivery timeline (see next page for estimated) Develop IT Infrastructure Terms of Reference Mobilise Resources!
