It’s Time to Upgrade Your Servers – Now What?

Why Now is the Right Time to Move to a Wisconsin Data Center

If your on-premise servers are reaching end-of-life, now is the perfect time to evaluate your IT strategy. Instead of investing in expensive, hard-to-maintain equipment, consider moving to a Wisconsin data center like Data Holdings, where reliability, security, and scalability are built in.

As a leading Wisconsin colocation provider, we offer a smarter, more future-ready alternative to self-hosting. Here's what the transition looks like and why more businesses across the state are making the move.

What a Transition to Data Holdings Looks Like

1. Assess Your Current IT Infrastructure

Our team starts by conducting a full analysis of your current environment. What are your computing needs? How much redundancy and scalability do you require? Whether you're in Milwaukee, Madison, Green Bay, or beyond, our Wisconsin-based data center experts will guide you to the right solution.

2. Plan Your Migration for Minimal Disruption

With colocation at Data Holdings, you're not alone. We’ll help develop a detailed migration plan that reduces downtime and risk. Our process includes:

  • Workload/power analysis

  • Security planning

  • Compliance review

Unlike self-hosting, where you're managing everything internally, we help make the transition efficient and seamless.

3. Deploy in a Secure, Tier IV Power Infrastructure Facility

Data Holdings is one of the most advanced colocation facilities in Wisconsin, with:

  • 100% power uptime since launch

  • Redundant UPS and backup generators

  • 24/7 physical security & biometric access

  • SOC 2 Type II, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and NDAA compliance

  • Built-in fiber from every major regional carrier

Whether you're moving one rack or a full environment, our Milwaukee-based data center ensures peak performance and security.

4. Test, Optimize, and Launch

We rigorously test your environment before go-live, resolving any performance or compatibility issues. Once you're in, we help you fine-tune everything from bandwidth to cooling to ensure peak efficiency.

5. Scale with Confidence

Post-migration, your infrastructure is monitored 24/7 by our expert team. Unlike with on-prem servers, you won’t worry about power or cooling failures. No surprise outages! Our Wisconsin colocation solutions let you scale as your business grows without the upfront capital expense.

Aging hardware creates security vulnerabilities, risks outages, and drives up costs. With Data Holdings, you gain:

  • Predictable OPEX costs

  • Modern, secure infrastructure

  • Access to fiber-rich connectivity

This is why companies across Wisconsin, from banks to manufacturers, are moving to Data Holdings for colocation.
