Datacenter migration and backup. Moved, checked, switched on.

Physical datacenter migration in Frankfurt: between halls, between datacenters, or out for good. We confirm with your team that backups have run before anything is switched off, and decommission what stays behind.

What we do. The physical side of the move.

  • Plan the move

    We walk the racks with your inventory and agree the order, the labels and the shutdown windows with you.

  • Backups confirmed first

    Before a server is powered down, we confirm with your team that its backup has run.

  • De-rack and re-rack

    Servers, storage and switches come out of the old racks and go into the new ones, in the same datacenter or another, labelled as agreed.

  • Cabling and power-up

    Recabled to your plan and powered up, then checked with your team before we leave.

  • Datacenter decommissioning

    Hardware that isn’t moving is taken out of the racks, and its drives can go to our data destruction service.

How a move runs. In four steps.

  1. Inventory and plan

    You send the inventory and the target racks; we agree the order and the windows.

  2. Backups confirmed

    Your team confirms each backup before its server is switched off.

  3. Move and rack

    We de-rack, move and rack the hardware again, labelled as agreed.

  4. Power up and hand over

    Cabled, powered up and checked with your team, then handed back.

Both: between halls in one datacenter, or from one datacenter to another. Tell us both sites in your request.

We take it out of the racks. Its drives can go to our data destruction service, with a certificate of destruction for your records.
