Data Center Migration in Marseille

Orange says its Marseille hub connects no less than 12 subsea cables and 8 major terrestrial links. That connectivity is a common reason to place equipment in the city, and it is also why a move into, out of or within Marseille is rarely just a matter of lifting servers: circuits, cross connects and cabling have to follow the hardware. In 2019 the port of Marseille-Fos announced new subsea cable landing infrastructure, with a first phase able to accommodate up to six cables, so the city's role as a connectivity point continues to develop. dc2scale MRS1 (Marseille datacenter) stands on rue Jacques Reattu in Marseille. A migration in this city starts with a scoping conversation. You tell us what is moving, from where and to where, and what must stay online during the work. Reboot Monkey then agrees who handles each step. The company can run the whole physical move, or work alongside your own team, and who disconnects, reconnects and tests the equipment is set per project.

Data centres in Marseille, ordered by the number of networks present:

Data center migration at Reboot Monkey is the physical movement of equipment between racks, rooms or facilities, delivered by field engineers on site. In Marseille it is combined with the neighbouring services a move usually needs, each one a separate part of the same project.

Server migration covers moving equipment between racks, rooms or facilities. Rack and stack covers installing, mounting and cabling new hardware at the destination, which matters when a migration replaces ageing equipment instead of relocating it. Remote hands and smart hands cover the physical tasks around the move, from cable checks and visual checks to technical work that needs diagnostic judgement and configuration knowledge.

Connectivity is handled as part of the same request. Reboot Monkey sells the network for the rack: it orders the cross connects and carrier circuits from the facility operator and the carriers present in the facility, and Reboot Monkey engineers install and patch the cabling in the customer's rack. When the old site is being emptied, data center decommissioning removes and disposes of retired hardware, and IT asset disposition (ITAD) covers data wiping, on-site shredding or degaussing, collection and transport, with resale or buyback quoted case by case.

Reboot Monkey is a third-party datacenter services operator. It sells rack space, IP transit, leased IP addresses, network, data-centre hardware and the services that deliver, install and support them, inside data centres that other companies own and run. It is not a hosting company and does not own datacenters, which means a migration plan is built around your equipment and your destination, not around capacity the company needs to fill.

As of 2026, Reboot Monkey's field engineers work in 190 countries and more than 400 locations, so a move that spans Marseille and another site can be planned as one project with the same working method at both ends.

A second, briefed Reboot Monkey engineer is named as backup for every customer site, so a migration does not depend on a single person being available on the day. Scope and cost are agreed before work starts. Prices are quoted on request and depend on the customer and the size of the job.

These terms apply in every facility in Marseille where Reboot Monkey engineers work.

The data centres we work in hold their own certifications, such as ISO/IEC 27001 and ISO 9001. Ask us for the certificate of your site.

A migration into Marseille often goes together with a decision about where the equipment will sit afterwards. If you are still choosing the destination, rack space and connectivity for your hardware are available through [Colocation in Marseille](/en/colocation/france/marseille/), and the same engineers can then carry out the move into it. Hardware that has been moved can also be placed under hardware monitoring, where the Reboot Monkey NOC monitors your servers and network equipment after the migration is complete.
