Where is the relocation destination?

--------------------------------------------

We will be moving all the listed servers from the present shared rack to our own rack.


Reasons of major server relocation?

-------------------------------------------

1. Improve server troubleshooting time - by consolidating our servers onto a our own rack, our engineers will have faster access for any troubleshooting works.


2. Better in security and management - by putting those servers in our own rack, it will not mix with other servers and better in security.
