Case Study: Holiday Builders achieves unrelenting uptime and secure, scalable colocation with CoreSite

Holiday Builders ensures a seamless building experience for customers leveraging CoreSite’s secure, reliable colocation

Holiday Builders, an employee‑owned home builder serving Florida and Alabama, needed a more reliable, secure IT environment to support plan reviews, contracts, invoicing and sales across 50 remote offices. Their prior data center lacked the redundancies and protections to withstand Florida’s weather and growing business continuity demands, so they sought a local colocation partner to eliminate downtime risk and safeguard customer experience and revenue.

Holiday Builders deployed a cabinet at CoreSite’s Orlando (OR1) facility to host hypervisors/VMs for ERP, telephony and public apps, integrating private cloud with Microsoft 365 and implementing load‑balancing, failover and a three‑tier bonded internet. CoreSite’s redundant power/cooling, diverse connectivity, 24/7 monitoring and remote‑hands support delivered the uptime, security and scalable colocation the company needed—improving IT productivity, protecting against cyber risk and enabling planned growth of about 20% next year.
