Efficient Data Centre Migration Services to Address Power, Cost, Space, and Compliance Challenges
Data Centre Migration involves transferring data and applications from one physical location to another, or from one cloud service provider to another.
Data centre migrations can be complex and time-consuming, but they’re often necessary to improve operational efficiency, reduce costs, or to support changes in business needs.
Our market-leading services can help ensure a smooth and successful migration.
We can support you with all areas of:
Physical Migration:
We offer a full range of solutions from consultation and design to configuration, delivery, and ongoing management; that enhance and extend our client’s operations, delivering tangible business benefit.
Logical Migration:
We can help transition digital assets, applications, and workloads between platforms and environments, leveraging our logical migration expertise to maintain operational continuity.
Problem Solving:
Power constraints:
Technimove’s data centre migration services can ensure that your power needs are met. This is the most common issue our clients have when considering a server relocation. It could be that your power demands have increased over the course of your contract and the data centre can’t meet your current / future needs – we have the expertise to assess and address this.
Rising costs:
For an effective and successful server relocation it’s important to assess all costs involved.
We can help you understand if you’re paying an unnecessary premium and if this can be solved by moving to a new data centre.
Space constraints:
Our audit process will help you understand if you need more space for your new data centre migration. Perhaps you have made an acquisition or two or decided to reduce your cloud estate and now require more rack space.
A server relocation is possibly your best option, so we can offer advice and actions to support your business.
Regulatory reasons:
We offer regulatory advice to ensure your server relocation will be compliant. This can be essential if you now need a server relocation to a new data centre due to new regulations and need to be compliant.
This is common with our banking and gaming clients needing to have their servers in a particular US state, or country.
Service issues:
Common issues are around power outages, access issues and poor customer service. Whatever the reason is, you’re not happy and have decided on a server relocation as your best option which is where our specialists can help overcome these problems.
Benefits:
There are several benefits of a data centre migration, such as:

Reduced downtime:
Migrating to a new data centre can help minimise downtime during the transition, ensuring that your business operations remain uninterrupted.
Enhanced disaster recovery:
A new data centre can offer better disaster recovery capabilities, ensuring that your data is protected in case of a disaster.
Overall, a data centre migration can help your organisation improve its IT infrastructure and operations, which can lead to better business outcomes.
Delivery
The process for a data centre relocation typically involves several steps.
1.
Audit and plan:
First, a thorough data centre pre-migration audit is completed, including an inventory of all equipment and systems. Next, a relocation plan is developed, which outlines the timeline, tasks, and responsibilities for the move.
2.
Prepare new data centre:
Once the plan is finalised, the new data centre space is prepared to ensure that it meets all the necessary requirements for the equipment to be relocated. This includes installing any necessary cabling, electrical, and cooling systems.
3.
Expert packing and transportation:
The actual move involves our team of experts carefully packing and transporting all equipment to the new location, unpacking, and setting up equipment in the new space, and conducting thorough testing to ensure that all systems are functioning properly.
4.
Post-implementation check
Finally, once the move is completed, a post-implementation check is conducted to confirm that all equipment and data have been successfully moved and that there are no outstanding issues, and we also offer post-project support.
Of course, every project is unique and may involve additional steps depending on your specific needs.
