DC Relo – Data Center Relocation Experts

What Sets Us Apart

Every project is delivered to the highest standards of security, certification, and transparency.

🏆

CDCMS Certification

Our lead architects hold the Certified Data Center Migration Specialist credential — the only team in Poland with this level of formal relocation expertise.

🔒

Carrier Liability & Cargo Insurance

Every project is covered by carrier liability (OCP) insurance. On request, we add Cargo insurance for full rack-to-rack coverage — the financial risk of equipment transport stays on us.

🗓️

Proprietary Planning Methodology

A unique relocation framework refined across 60+ projects — complete with scenario planning, business continuity plans, and rollback procedures. Unmatched anywhere else in the Polish market.

Service Stock During Relocation

As one of Poland's leading third-party maintenance providers (10,000+ devices under service), we give clients access to our spare parts and replacement equipment stock throughout the relocation project — minimizing downtime risk even in the event of unexpected failures.

🛡️

Armed Security Convoy Transport

High-value equipment is transported under armed security escort. We split critical devices across separate waves and vehicles to minimize the risk of any single incident.

📋

Complete As-Built Documentation

After every relocation we deliver full as-built documentation along with an acceptance protocol, giving clients complete, auditable visibility into the infrastructure's post-project state.

Why DC Relo?

DC Relo is a specialized brand of Upstream Solutions — an IT integrator operating in the Polish market since 2010. We are Poland's leading data center relocation specialist, with a track record unmatched anywhere else in the country.

In every relocation project we take full ownership of the undertaking — from environment analysis, through planning and transport, to deployment and handover. Each relocation is carried out by a dedicated team of certified specialists, working as a single end-to-end general contractor.

Our proprietary data center relocation planning methodology — continuously refined and built on industry best practices — is a key advantage no other provider offers in the Polish market. From a single server room relocation to a nationwide data center migration, we deliver every project with the same methodology and team.

Cross-border DR (Disaster Recovery)

Cross-border DR — A Third Site
Outside Poland

Most large organizations in Poland operate two data centers. Regulators — particularly in the financial sector — increasingly require a third one, located outside the country's borders. Upstream delivers this service through a partnership with Equinix, the global leader in colocation and data center interconnection.

🌍

Equinix operates 72+ locations across 5 continents. For Polish clients we recommend Frankfurt, Hamburg, or London — financial hubs with the lowest latency to Poland and full compliance with EU regulations.

Equinix facilities hold ISO 22301 (business continuity), ISO 27001 (information security), and PCI DSS certifications, with full GDPR compliance for companies operating in the EU.
