Overview

The need to remain competitive and reduce operating costs encouraged Vivo, one of the largest mobile telephone service providers in Latin America, to implement a platform able to unify the technology platform of its six regional carriers. With focus on improved customer service, the company bet on Intel technology. Vivo selected Portugal Telecom Inovacao as vendor to provide a robust platform with several functionalities. For the project, PT Inovacao decided to design a solution powered by HP RX 4640 servers based on 64-bit Intel Itanium 2 and Intel Xeon processors. Intel products and the Linux operating system form a winning duo.
