Moving? Here’s How to Prepare for Relocating Your Infrastructure

Moving? Here’s How to Prepare for Relocating Your Infrastructure

Moving your business’ IT infrastructure is quite an endeavor, but a few preparatory steps can make it easier. Let’s review them and see if there are any opportunities hiding in this task.

Take Some Time to Plan Ahead

Before you do anything, you need to evaluate the location to which you plan to move your infrastructure and how the move will impact your operations. Regarding your new location, you need to ensure that the space is prepared for your equipment to be installed—sufficient climate control, electric supplies, and security in place for your infrastructure—and that all the peripherals can be connected efficiently.

You should also consider how the move will impact your business’ operability. What will need to be paused, and how long will the interruption last? This will put you in a position to make the move as smooth and painless as possible.

Take Inventory of Your Current Infrastructure

Once you have an idea of your available space and how things will fit together, you need to know what you have to work with and whether it is optimized for your new approach. Will your current communication setup work? Will you need additional cabling or less hardware and software? This is the time to identify potential or necessary changes and implement them.

Take Advantage of the Opportunity to Make Improvements

Speaking of changes, this is also the ideal time to consider how you could improve your network and infrastructure, especially where security and access controls are involved. You need to keep your data secure throughout the move, after all, so by identifying all your resources and securing them appropriately, you start at a vantage point. If hardware needs to be replaced, rebuilding your infrastructure is an excellent time to do it.
