Multinational “one-stop” technology provider adopts Red Hat’s modern virtualization platform to deliver more cost-effective private cloud offerings to its customers
Red Hat, the world's leading provider of open source solutions, today announced that TIVIT, a multinational private cloud provider with operations across Latin America, has adopted Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization for greater cost efficiency in its virtualized infrastructure while reducing vendor lock-in. A capability of Red Hat OpenShift, Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization provides TIVIT with a modern virtualization platform, underscoring TIVIT’s commitment to providing its extensive customer base with agile, scalable and economically-sound cloud solutions.
A hybrid private cloud provider, TIVIT employs more than 6,900 people and engages with more than 1,500 customer IT projects annually. The company maintains close collaborations with major technology providers, including Red Hat, AWS, Azure, Google, IBM, Oracle and VMware, offering hybrid and private cloud solutions that span bare-metal environments for restricted virtualization cases to high-performance, low-latency connectivity with public cloud services for in-datacenter deployments. The company’s operations include a private cloud offering with regions in 10 countries including Brazil where it operates in 7 of the country’s 10 largest companies, with robust disaster recovery and synchronous replication capabilities, as well as availability zones across Latin America.
In response to changing market dynamics, TIVIT sought an additional alternative to its existing virtualization platform to become more cost-efficient and to reduce its reliance on a single vendor for critical technology. TIVIT already had a decade and half long relationship with Red Hat, having already built customer and infrastructure offerings around Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Red Hat OpenShift, so exploring Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization provided a further extension of this trusted collaboration.
Using the Red Hat migration toolkit for virtualization, TIVIT can more efficiently bring workloads in virtualization environments to Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization while maintaining critical security standards. The provider’s Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization environment now supports roughly 1,500 virtual servers and uses segmented networking for high-performance and enhanced security of operations. It also incorporates dedicated networks to manage cluster control, virtual machine (VM) communication, storage replication and more to allow for easier integration with OpenShift, public cloud and other provider workloads.
With Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization, TIVIT gains several advantages including:
- Support for hybrid and multicloud deployments with a common platform based on open standards that can operate in whatever environment is required.
- Significant cost savings of up to 73% when using Red Hat Enterprise Linux in conjunction with Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization.
- Critical modern virtualization capabilities including over-provisioning of vCPUs, live workload migration, built-in cloning and snapshot tools and more.
TIVIT emphasizes aligning an organization’s cloud strategy with its ultimate business objectives, helping deliver effective, choice-driven cloud platforms to meet a variety of use cases. With Red Hat OpenShift Virtualization, TIVIT is able to focus on bringing value to its clients without concerns over vendor lock-in or skyrocketing infrastructure costs, built on an existing trusted collaboration with Red Hat.
