A datacenter move to colocation, with the network as the foundation

Design, migration and day-to-day management of the entire network and datacenter architecture.

The customer is a food producer with several production sites across the Benelux. The company is rebuilding its network and datacenter infrastructure step by step. Xylos co-designs that transformation and then takes over management of the environment.

The challenge

The primary datacenter moved to an external colocation environment. A move like that stands or falls with the network layer underneath it. Connectivity has to be right before the first critical component makes the crossing, and it has to stay manageable afterwards.

The approach

Xylos took charge of the design, preparation, project coordination and implementation of the entire network and connectivity architecture within the datacenter. Concretely, that meant drawing up LAN, SAN and interconnect schemes, validating network connectivity, migrating the critical infrastructure components, and coordinating testing and handover.

After the migration, Xylos stayed on board with managed services for the environment: operational management, monitoring and governance, with technical expertise in infrastructure, connectivity and security close at hand.

The result

The environment runs stably and securely in the new datacenter, ready for whatever comes next, with a partner that watches over it daily.

  • A fully designed and documented network architecture in the new colocation environment.

  • Critical infrastructure migrated, with coordinated testing and handover.

  • Ongoing management, monitoring and governance after the migration.

The further expansion of the infrastructure continues together with Xylos.
