Enfo
To meet growing demand for flexible IT, Nordic IT services provider Enfo selected Lenovo Flex System as the foundation for its hosting infrastructure. The new infrastructure offers greater reliability and flexibility at a lower cost, enabling Enfo to deliver the highest level of service to its clients.
Beam Suntory
From grain to glass, Beam Suntory must ensure that manufacturing systems run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to distill the premium spirits the company is known for. To minimize the risk of unplanned downtime, Beam Suntory replaced the aging IT infrastructure supporting its core Wonderware manufacturing execution system with Lenovo Converged HX3310 hyperconverged appliances, integrated with Nutanix software. Now, the company has complete confidence that its IT systems will run uninterrupted, keeping the drinks coming.
