Commercial Real Estate Data Center Migration and Modernization with multiple Telcos Link Load Balancer

Commercial Real Estate Data Center Migration and Modernization with multiple Telcos Link Load Balancer

One of the dominant players in the real estate industry, known for their world-class office designs in Bonifacio Global City, has successfully relocated its head office to another floor within the same building. This strategic move not only facilitated a fresh and efficient office layout but also incorporated advanced technological upgrades to support their growing operations.

The relocation involved more than just the physical office space, it included the careful transfer and setup of both computer workstations and a fully operational data center. The project required expertise in managing complex IT infrastructure, ensuring minimal disruption to daily operations and a seamless transition to the new location.

The services provided were comprehensive, covering the supply, installation, and configuration of new network cabling, along with both new and existing network switches, firewall security, and multiple Telco Link Load Balancers.
