The Brazilian IT services company RGK4IT has taken a decisive step toward technological modernization by implementing Lenovo TruScale Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS). This strategic collaboration has not only enabled RGK4IT to overcome latency challenges in its region but also positioned it as a leader in private cloud services in Paraná, Brazil.
A challenge turned into an opportunity
Based in Maringá, Paraná, RGK4IT faces a significant challenge: the distance from Brazil’s main data centers, located in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, creates latency issues for its clients. However, the company transformed this limitation into an opportunity by deciding to build its own private cloud infrastructure to ensure high-quality performance.
“We wanted to offer our clients low-latency, high-performance private cloud services directly from Maringá, and for that, we needed dedicated hosting infrastructure,” explained Alexander Duarte Rogoski, Project Director at RGK4IT.
The Lenovo TruScale solution
After years of collaboration with Lenovo, RGK4IT chose Lenovo TruScale IaaS as the foundation for its cloud infrastructure project. The solution includes state-of-the-art hardware Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 V2, along with design, implementation, and ongoing support services. Furthermore, the pay-as-you-go model allowed RGK4IT to avoid large initial capital investments.
“Lenovo TruScale was the most commercially attractive option, with quick delivery and a flexible solution that fits our needs,” highlighted Rogoski.
Immediate results and significant savings
In just 60 days, Lenovo completed the installation of customized servers for RGK4IT, allowing the company to launch its private cloud with a 50% savings in infrastructure costs. Currently, RGK4IT operates ten ThinkSystem SR650 V2 servers, hosting private clouds for local clients, and plans to rapidly expand this capacity.
Growth and scalability assured
The Lenovo TruScale model enables RGK4IT to scale its infrastructure quickly and efficiently, adapting to the growing demand for cloud services. With projections to triple its size in the coming year, driven by the surge in AI services, RGK4IT is positioning itself as a benchmark in Brazil’s tech market.
“Lenovo TruScale gives us the flexibility to grow at the pace of our clients’ needs, ensuring quality and profitability,” stated Rogoski.
A success story in technological innovation
The collaboration between RGK4IT and Lenovo highlights how technology can transform businesses by reducing costs and enabling new growth opportunities. With Lenovo TruScale, RGK4IT not only enhances its offerings but also reinforces its leadership in a competitive market, demonstrating that innovation and strategy can go hand in hand.
