Pharmacy servers carry dispensing history, controlled-drug registers, patient profiles and POS data. A dead drive or missed patch can mean a week of disruption — and a notifiable data breach.
WAPIT provides full-lifecycle server management: design, install, patch, harden, monitor and refresh. We also run pharmacy workloads in our hardened Azure tenancy when you want to retire the back-room server altogether.
Built for Australian pharmacy operations.
Patching & hardening
Monthly patch cycles with Essential Eight ML2 hardening baselines applied and audited.
Performance monitoring
CPU, memory, disk and SQL telemetry with alerts before slowness hits the dispense bench.
Hybrid & cloud-hosted
Run on-premise, in our Azure tenancy, or split — whichever fits your dispensing software vendor.
UPS & power
Right-sized UPS, generator integration and graceful shutdowns to protect data during outages.
Lifecycle planning
5-year roadmap with budgeted refresh dates so servers never quietly fall out of support.

Frequently asked questions
Should we keep our on-prem server or move to cloud?
Depends on your dispensing vendor. Minfos and Fred both have hybrid models. We'll model the 3-year total cost of ownership for both options and recommend honestly.
Do you support virtualised servers?
Yes — Hyper-V and VMware on-prem, plus Azure and AWS hosted. Our team holds Microsoft and Azure certifications.
