New datacenter design and move the existing

Hi,
I am the administrator of an SMB firm and we have a task to prepare a new datacenter in a new building and at the end, we have to move the existing DC to the new.

I would like to ask  experts, what are the priorities and compulsary tasks are to be considered? What new features for a modern datacenter i have to consider? Any Advise related to this task is highly appreciated.

Thanks for your support

Consider getting your vendors involved as quickly as possible. They have the resources to plan and help execute this type of move, and their experience is priceless.

Thanks for the update - how did it work out for you?

Just a side note. As experts, our only reward is the point reward when a question is answered correctly or helpful information is shared. In a case such as this, where two different experts contributed toward a potential solution and provided the requested information, it would be common for the points to be awarded, possibly being split between the two with one being chosen as a primary answer and the other as a secondary. The points cost nothing to distribute; there are unlimited points available to you, in other words, and they are what provide incentive for the experts to help.

Thanks!

Actually, i was away from the EE for a while. for my question, i involved the vendors as u suggested and turned to the required solution that match my budget and exact necessity. No solution that fits all :)

Thank you for your comments.

Thanks for that information. As a guideline to future questions that you post, it is common and expected that points will be awarded in this sort of case, especially when asking for "any advice related..." which indicates a general kind of request for advice.

I'm having  a difficult time understanding what would stop you from rewarding points for this question, especially in light of your update saying that you in fact used my advice to proceed. As experts here, again, our only reward is points, and it allows us to stay on the system as experts if we get enough points each month. We are all volunteers and help people for free.
