Who Is North America’s T-Systems?
Digital services and IT leader T-Systems employs 28,000 workers in 20 countries. Deutsche Telekom-owned T-Systems is the largest a SAP hosting provider with 5.9 million subscribers. Its headquarters are in Frankfurt, Germany.
T-Systems North America is a provider of cloud services in the US and Canada. It offers enterprise cloud assessments, migration and transformation, SAP hosting, public and private cloud managed services, and application operations. The automotive, manufacturing, energy, and healthcare sectors comprise T-Systems North America’s primary industries.
T-Systems North America’s goal is to enable enterprises to realize their full potential through digitization, just like its parent firm.
The Issue
T-Systems North America uses its worldwide solution portfolio, operational capabilities, and experience to provide customers with the tools they need to thrive. The company stands alongside its clients on their digital transformation journeys.
Many digital transformation initiatives use cloud computing. Cloud computing leaders include Google Cloud Platform, Microsoft Azure, and Amazon Web Services (AWS).
But for security, legal, or data sovereignty concerns, or merely because the technology isn’t cloud ready, businesses frequently have outdated on-premises systems that just can’t be thrown into the public cloud. The extensive portfolio of T-Systems can help with it.
The Future Is Hybrid
T-Systems introduced Future Cloud Infrastructure (FCI), a managed private cloud solution that integrates private and public clouds, hyperscalers, legacy, and on-premises systems, to help companies move to the cloud at their own pace.
T-Systems North America CEO Cesar Martinez says, “Our technical experts and cloud consultants carefully listen to the customer’s needs and define the best path forward.” With apps dispersed over on-premises systems, public clouds, and private clouds, this is typically a hybrid approach.
FCI unifies on-premises infrastructure, private cloud, and public cloud on a single platform ecosystem. It is built on Lenovo Think Agile VX and Think System servers powered by 3rd Gen Intel Xeon processors and VMware Cloud Foundation.
Lenovo deploys the hardware, provides continuous upgrades, hardware lifecycle management, and Premier Support services, and ships factory-integrated, tested, and verified building blocks straight to T-Systems North America’s data centers.
Device Hardware
- Third-generation Intel Xeon Scalable processors power the Lenovo ThinkAgile VX Series.
- Intel Xeon Scalable processors of the third generation power the Lenovo ThinkSystem SR650 V2.

Result
T-Systems North America recently deployed the FCI platform live in close collaboration with Lenovo. Currently, the business is moving its current clientele to the new infrastructure.
“Lenovo enabled us to complete a timely delivery,” says T-Systems North America Vice President of Cloud Services Mauro Guzelotto.
T-Systems North America can assist clients in unifying their IT systems on a single platform, thereby cutting costs and simplifying operations, thanks to FCI powered by Lenovo.
With FCI, businesses can take use of all the benefits of the public cloud, including speed, agility, flexibility, and cost transparency, while still running both cloud-native solutions and older apps in a highly secure private cloud environment. Furthermore, hyperscalers’ pay-as-you-go public cloud services are integrated with FCI.
- Utilize cloud computing to modernize IT
- Assure steady functioning
- Assist with older apps
- Manage expenses
- Diminish its complexity
Why Lenovo?
T-Systems assessed over 100 use cases and invited all of the leading industry players before selecting the hardware partner for FCI. The finest outcomes were achieved by Lenovo, especially in the testing and automation domains. Most importantly, Lenovo also received great marks for supply chain and hardware dependability.
According to Guzelotto, one of Lenovo’s primary differentiators was their dependable supply chain, which is crucial to know in unpredictable times. In order to assist intel customers and eliminate uncertainty from a daily operations, Lenovo is very adaptive to intel changing business needs. They make sure they receive the equipment they require when need it.
Technology from Lenovo’s ThinkAgile VX Series also played a significant role. SAP applications that require high performance can be executed and managed flawlessly on the Lenovo ThinkAgile VX nodes. They can accommodate up to 24 TB and are available with two, four, or eight sockets.
Pioneering cloud computing company T-Systems, with headquarters in Germany, assists businesses and organizations of all kinds in undergoing digital transformation.
As a component of Deutsche Telekom, the top
T-Systems, a telecommunications company, runs a massive private cloud estate with cloud-like systems spread across 30 data centers globally. In addition, they manage the biggest cyber protection and security system in Europe and, with 5.9 million users, are the largest SAP hosting provider globally.
Currently, T-Systems hosts 65,000 virtual machines (VMs) on roughly 10,000 physical servers that house vital business applications. However, the company is expanding quickly, adding up to 8,000 VMs annually.
Their antiquated private cloud technologies were unable to compete. They required more operational work to meet the various setup methods required for various clients because they were neither quick nor flexible enough.
Furthermore, as more clients started using multi-cloud systems, expectations grew. Clients desired a seamless private cloud experience, matching that of the public cloud.
T-Systems has to act immediately. They required a more reliable performance that could handle more complexity and be executed at faster and more agile speeds. And they wanted to achieve it without going over budget, just like anybody else.
