30-45 minutes from Melzo · city centre. On-site hardware repair, maintenance, data recovery and upgrades on enterprise servers. 4 working hours · Critical. Operations base in Melzo (east Milan).
Milan is Italy's leading enterprise server market. The business landscape is broad and varied: from the corporate offices of the finance sector (banks, insurers, fintechs in the Brera-Porta Nuova district) to large industrial groups headquartered in the city, from e-commerce logistics around Linate/Segrate, to universities and research centres (Bocconi, Politecnico, Bicocca).
For our hardware work this means heterogeneous server infrastructure: large vSphere/Hyper-V clusters in colocation, departmental ERP server estates, database VMs for transactional applications, file servers and DCs on Windows Server and Linux RHEL/Ubuntu. The density of datacentres in the Milan area (CDLAN, Equinix, Aruba Milano, Retelit) and the number of physical servers in colocation make Milan the highest-volume point for on-site work across our footprint.
From Melzo, our operations base sits centrally with respect to Milan: 30-45 minutes to the city centre during working hours, 20-30 minutes to east Milan and Linate. Under a Critical contract, the 4-working-hour on-site SLA is comfortably sustainable even in difficult traffic scenarios.
Every district in the province of Milan has its own server requirements. Below are the profiles we see most often and how we adapt to them.
A concentration of Italian offices of banks, insurers, fintechs and scaleups. Typical servers: virtualised clusters for transactional applications, low-latency trading infrastructure, analytics databases. Continuous load, high sensitivity to downtime, Critical contracts are common.
E-commerce hubs, integrated logistics, Italian offices of large international operators. WMS business servers, routing applications, EDI integrations. Often departmental virtualisation on Proxmox/VMware. Fast Critical response times.
Bocconi, Politecnico, Bicocca: compute clusters, research servers, teaching infrastructure. Highly variable academic workloads, sometimes GPUs for AI/ML research.
Regione Lombardia offices, ATS, Lombardy IRCCS hospitals. Healthcare application servers, medical records management, booking systems. GDPR compliance and strict continuity requirements.

From our operations base in Melzo we reach central Milan in 30-45 minutes during working hours (with some margin for peak-time traffic, 8-10 and 17-19). East Milan (Cernusco, Vimodrone, Sesto SG) in 20-30 minutes. The Linate / Segrate / Pioltello area in 15-25 minutes. Under a Critical contract we operate an on-site SLA of 4 working hours from ticket acceptance — the margin lets us absorb even difficult traffic scenarios on the Milan-Melzo corridor (SS11, A4, MM2).
Yes. We work regularly in the main colocation datacentres in Milan and its province: CDLAN (Caldera 21), Aruba Milano, Retelit / IRIDEOS, Equinix ML1/ML2/ML3/ML4/ML5. We know the access procedures, the technical escort hours, the entry/exit routes. For colocation customers who prefer not to send their own staff, we offer a remote hands service.
Milan profile: Dell PowerEdge (R740, R750, R7625, R6515) is the most frequent vendor, followed by HPE ProLiant (DL380 Gen10 and Gen11). In finance and on high-density clusters we regularly see Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650, and in specific sectors Cisco UCS. At tech startups and scaleups: Supermicro in significant numbers, often custom-configured.
Under a Critical contract, yes, with extended on-call availability outside working hours for emergencies on production servers. Under Business contracts, on-site intervention on the next working day. For calls without a contract it depends on technician availability at the time — phone triage on +39 02 95 17 550 is always quick and gives you a realistic answer on when we can be on-site.
Yes, we have established partnerships with MSPs, system integrators and other IT providers in the Milan area who use us as a specialist hardware partner for their end customers. For ongoing systems administration, the group's reference is AssistenzaServer.eu (our sister site). On request, under NDA, we can also work in a way that is fully transparent to the MSP's end customer.
Beyond Milano, our engineers work on-site across the other Lombardy provinces. Same procedure, same spare parts, same response times.
