Auckland Council | Government | 6647 | $2.7B | New Zealand | Spark Business Group | Spark CCL Iaas | Application Hosting and Computing Services | 2017 |
In 2017, Auckland Council engaged Ccl of Spark Business Group to provision Spark CCL Iaas as part of an Application Hosting and Computing Services program in New Zealand. The engagement was positioned to consolidate data centre footprints and provide a platform for hosting hundreds of council applications across its IT estate.
The deployment used a hybrid and multi cloud architecture, moving hundreds of applications onto Ccl’s IaaS platform and staging selected workloads into Azure and AWS as proofs of concept. Implementation emphasis included infrastructure and application modernisation, and preparing application estates for SAP related SaaS adoption, with configuration of compute, storage and orchestration layers on Spark CCL Iaas.
Integrations and operational coverage were explicitly multi environment, with Spark CCL Iaas serving as the central infrastructure layer and Azure and AWS used for staged workloads and validation. The program covered Auckland Council IT estates across New Zealand and targeted both platform level operations and application hosting responsibilities within council IT and application teams.
Governance and rollout were executed as staged proofs of concept followed by broader consolidation waves, aligning platform operations, monitoring and cost visibility controls across the new IaaS footprint. The stated objectives included improving scalability, increasing visibility and tightening cost control across council IT estates, while enabling readiness for SAP related SaaS.

Genesis Energy | Utilities | 1278 | $2.1B | New Zealand | Spark Business Group | Spark CCL Iaas | Application Hosting and Computing Services | 2017 |
In 2017 Genesis Energy migrated its large-scale IT environment to Spark CCL Iaas, an Application Hosting and Computing Services platform delivered by Spark Business Group. The New Zealand implementation engaged Ccl as the systems integrator and targeted the utility's Energy Online initiatives, including deployment of IBM Power as a service for AIX and modernization of Gentrack customer management systems.
Implementation focused on infrastructure and operations transformation, shifting capital expenditure off the balance sheet by moving to Spark CCL Iaas and standardizing compute and virtualization layers across data center footprints. The environment provisioned platform-level IaaS capabilities, IBM Power compute for AIX workloads, and platform services to host Gentrack, enabling faster provisioning and lifecycle management of customer-facing applications.
Operational coverage centered on IT operations and customer-facing functions across Genesis Energy in New Zealand, with the Gentrack modernization representing the primary application integration point. The deployment integrated platform provisioning, capacity management, and service orchestration to align compute resources with Energy Online development and support workflows.
Governance changes emphasized infrastructure and operations process realignment, with IT teams adopting cloud provisioning governance and service catalog controls on Spark CCL Iaas to manage AIX workloads and Gentrack tenancy. Genesis Energy used the Ccl implementation to centralize hosting, reduce CAPEX exposure, and accelerate delivery of customer services through the Spark CCL Iaas Application Hosting and Computing Services model.

Waimakariri District Council New Zealand | Government | 433 | $92M | New Zealand | Spark Business Group | Spark CCL Iaas | Application Hosting and Computing Services | 2016 |
In 2016, Waimakariri District Council moved production systems, storage and backups to Spark CCL Iaas in the Application Hosting and Computing Services category, engaging Spark Business Group and implementation partner Ccl for the New Zealand project. The deployment targeted IT and infrastructure stability for the council, addressing hardware failures that affected ERP and Microsoft platform availability.
The implementation centered on infrastructure and platform services, with Spark CCL Iaas providing compute, storage and backup tenancy and CCL’s CloudCreator dashboard enabling self-service provisioning for on demand server instantiation. Configuration emphasized consolidation of virtual server estates, reducing server counts from 70 to 39, and standardizing provisioned images and backup routines to stabilize platform operations.
Operational coverage included council IT infrastructure, ERP systems and Microsoft application stacks, with platform-level backup and storage moved into the CCL IaaS environment to centralize recovery points and streamline operational management. The CloudCreator dashboard was used to shift routine provisioning workflows to a self-service model, improving administrative throughput for infrastructure teams.
Governance and rollout were executed as an infrastructure program in New Zealand, with Ccl supporting implementation and operational handover to council IT. The project delivered explicit outcomes of server consolidation, monthly cost savings and improved disaster recovery capability as stated in the case study, while embedding cloud provisioning controls and platform-level backup orchestration under the Spark CCL Iaas implementation.
