The Challenge
A fast-growing fintech startup needed to migrate their entire server infrastructure from one datacenter to another in Ankara. The challenge? They couldn’t afford any downtime due to their 24/7 trading platform.
Our Approach
We developed a phased migration plan with our client:
- Physical Assessment: Our engineers visited both datacenters to map out the infrastructure
- Cable Planning: Pre-planned all network cable runs and power connections
- Hardware Preparation: Set up new racks and verified power systems
- Coordinated Migration: Worked in shifts over a weekend to move servers systematically
- Testing & Verification: Thorough testing of each component before going live
The Result
Zero downtime achieved
All 45 servers were successfully migrated over a 48-hour period. The trading platform continued operating without interruption throughout the entire process.
Technical Highlights
- 180+ network cables installed and labeled
- 45 servers physically relocated
- 3 redundant power circuits configured
- Complete fiber optic interconnect setup
- Real-time monitoring during transition
Client Feedback
The client was impressed with our meticulous planning and execution. They’ve since contracted us for ongoing monthly maintenance visits.
