  • Nagios Helps Brazilian Bank Improve IT Infrastructure Availability
    Partner Success Story Nagios Helps Brazilian Bank Improve IT Infrastructure Availability Customer Profile Banrisul (Banco do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul) is the 12th largest bank in Brazil. Located Banrisul in Porto Algre, the bank has more than 460 agencies around the country to serve around 3 Porto Alegre, Brazil million customers and more than 9,000 employees. www.banrisul.com.br Industry: Business Needs Banking Banrisul uses a very complex IT infrastructure due to sophisticated Brazilian banking system and regulations. The bank also has a large and distributed agencies network. Banrisul has a mix of IBM mainframes and a large number of Linux, Microsoft and HP- UX platforms to support their financial operations. The management of this complex IT environment was handled using proprietary tools from the Big Four (IBM, HP, CA and BMC) in IT management solutions. Challenge Banrisul needed an integrated, centralized and scalable management tool to manage the Nagios Partner: whole IT infrastructure from a single point of view - replacing some of the proprietary platforms due their high cost of maintenance and upgrades. Additionally, Banrisul needed a more flexible platform capable of managing their legacy applications and IT environment without the high costs required to develop and customize proprietary tools.
