About The Customer
Toolfit is a company that provides a management platform to fitness facilities. The company operates in Brazil, serving customers in Fortaleza, Recife, Bahia, and Rio de Janeiro. The platform is hosted on a cloud infrastructure and is critical to the operations of the fitness facilities that Toolfit serves. The company was using a Microsoft Azure environment for hosting its application but was facing challenges in terms of agility and reliability. Toolfit was also looking for better support services from its IT provider.
The Challenge
Toolfit, a company that provides a management platform to fitness facilities throughout Brazil, was in need of a more agile and reliable cloud hosting infrastructure. The organization was not only looking to improve application uptime but also wanted to collaborate with a trusted IT provider that could offer exceptional support services. The existing infrastructure was not meeting the company's needs in terms of reliability and support.
The Solution
Toolfit decided to migrate its fitness application from a Microsoft Azure environment to a SoftLayer hybrid infrastructure. This decision was based on the flexibility and performance of the SoftLayer cloud platform and the support services included. The company's bare metal and virtual servers, which support application delivery to its customers, are hosted in a SoftLayer data center in Dallas, Texas. This migration has provided Toolfit with a more reliable and agile cloud hosting infrastructure.
Operational Impact
  • Improved support with highly responsive 24x7 service
  • Enhanced availability of the company’s fitness management platform with dependable performance
Quantitative Benefit
  • 25% reduction in cloud hosting costs with the migration to a SoftLayer platform
