  5. 4 Reasons Why You Need Data Centre Relocation for Your Business
16 August 2022

As the name suggests, data centre relocation is the process of moving your business’s core from one location to another. It’s carried out by various companies who are looking to expand their businesses to a new market.
However, many people may hesitate to relocate their data centre as it tends to cause serious downtime for a business. It also takes a lot of time and effort to carry out this task. 
Despite all of these challenges, there are several benefits of relocating your data centre, if you plan it carefully. We, at Redpalm, have written down a list of the benefits of data centre relocation, to help you to decide if this is the right step for your business.
Let’s get started!

1. Increase in Performance Capabilities

Today, in a fast-paced world where every task relies on the Internet, your data centre must keep pace with your competitors. Doing a data centre relocation at the right place can help you to increase your server output, which will directly make your company more efficient. 
Additionally, data centre migration will help to set up your IoT devices and streaming applications, which is essential for businesses today. To relocate your data centre, we recommend doing it through a reliable IT company like Redpalm. 
This is because your business data centre operations might be too large to be carried out through modern processes like the Cloud. Leaving this process in the hands of the professionals at Redpalm is more efficient and will save you from any hassle in the near future. 

2. Massive Decrease in Capital Expenses

While it may sound like a hassle to relocate your business’s data centre, it may help you to save thousands of pounds in the long run. Data centre migration can help your company to reduce its energy consumption and help to streamline your business. 
On top of that, you can consider moving your data centre to a state that offers data centre tax breaks, which may help you to reduce your capital expenditure. All in all, it’ll help your data centre run more smoothly while reducing any unnecessary capital expenses. 

3. Better Energy Efficiency

If your data centre functions in areas with high temperatures, it is likely to be wasting large amounts of energy. This is because you need to regulate the right temperature for your data centre to function optimally.
As a result, it’s better to relocate your data centre to cooler, optimal climates that’ll allow you to reduce your energy consumption and environmental impact. 
To make sure that your data centre works efficiently after its relocation, you should contact the experts at Redpalm to carry out the process. We have several years of experience as an IT company and can ensure that you’ll notice results after letting us help with your data centre migration.

4. Geographical Proximity

The biggest benefit of data centre relocation is that you can locate closer to your clients’ markets, other branches of your business, and other important locations. This will play a big role in expanding your company and making the process of relocation easier for you. 
Additionally, if your current location faces frequent natural disasters, unexpected weather, and cyber security risks, then you’ll need to carry out a data centre relocation. It’ll protect your business from facing unexpected problems like ransomware threats and help you to work more efficiently. 
Although carrying out a data centre relocation can cause some downtime, it can be game-changing for your business. To ensure that you don’t face too many challenges, we recommend taking the assistance of Redpalm.
