Zero-downtime server relocation
An international financial management firm relocated its entire server infrastructure to a new London office without a single minute of disruption.
The client needed to relocate its server infrastructure to a new London office while keeping continuous access to critical databases and email systems throughout the move. Financial data feeds and client-facing systems could not afford any unplanned downtime.
PurpleBox managed the relocation end-to-end: physical migration of server hardware, network reconfiguration at the new site, database replication to keep systems in sync during the transition, and a carefully sequenced cutover plan built around the business's live working hours.
The move was completed in 48 hours with zero downtime and full system performance maintained throughout. Staff had uninterrupted access to databases and email before, during and after the relocation.
