Data Center Modernization

Data Center Consolidation

Outdated facilities, consolidation mandates, and mergers and acquisitions can all create a need to migrate or decommission data centers. In addition, new business initiatives may strain facilities already at capacity.

Moving physical hardware and IT workloads requires thoughtful planning and a comprehensive strategy. Secure, custom IT infrastructure will help you go beyond “lift and shift” operations to improve your efficiency, reliability, and application availability.

• Evaluating existing contracts
• Timing to avoid seasonal fluctuations in workload
• Selecting a project team
• Assessing legacy equipment
• Pre-move and post-move audits

When you're moving data centers, you're probably worried about two things: application uptime and cost for comparable infrastructure. With an average 16 years of experience for each of our technicians, you can be confident your new infrastructure will be installed, configured, and tested correctly and thoroughly.

• Avoid high operational costs from energy use and old hardware
• Reduce upfront capital costs to upgrade facilities
• Prevent inefficient setup of equipment
• Gain reliability, security, redundancy, and connectivity

An Opportunity to Improve IT Operations

While you're at it, request a custom disaster recovery or backup plan, or extend your private cloud to public hosting for bursting or seasonal requirements. Start with a close examination of your current environment, including power use, application sprawl, physical site details, legacy equipment, and software licensing—and finish with a modern environment that better supports your business.

Cloud Migration

The use of cloud computing technologies is a huge step towards IT modernization in and of itself. However, it can often come with the implementation of new applications, licensing, and workflows, as well as re-architecting of legacy systems.

Lunavi provides complete cloud migration planning and execution, working with you to identify your platform of choice, goals and milestones, and ultimate success criteria. Most any enterprise IT platform and application can be run in the cloud, and if not we can find an equivalent replacement. Let us help you enable the agility and reliability of the cloud.
