The strong highlights of this partnership is the synergy between Savant and Red Hat to offer quality services, products, highly specialized knowledge, and innovative products which add value to customers.

Savant has developed a series of products, which can be customized to customer’s needs. To fulfill the need for firewall on new internet connections, the company offers a solution that includes traffic control, bandwidth control, content filtering with web management and monitoring interface, besides an intrusion detection and protection system.

“As specialized service, we deliver Server Assessment or Server Auditing to Red Hat and other customers, those services requires technical knowledge about server security and best server implementation,” affirms Sungaila.

Having expertise in virtualization, cloud computing environment as well as in information security and centralized authentication using Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), Savant provides services to a wide client base. For instance, one of their clients started its server virtualization process where the virtual machines were created using the virtualization capabilities of the operating system. In spite of using enterprise-class storage to host all virtual machines images, the client was having problems in management and boot process of Vendor Management System (VMS). “To improve management and stabilization of the environment, we recommended the adoption of RHEV—Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization—platform that provides dedicated virtualization hosts, centralized management, and monitoring system,” says Sungaila. The platform added features like live migration, storage migration, and automatic recovery, enabling the client to increase its cluster virtualization.

To show customers the benefits of new technologies and methods of integrating them into the corporate environment with minimal impact, Savant’s team is dedicated to researching new systems, applications, and functionalities. As a whole, the company differentiates itself through its deep product knowledge, personalized service, flexibility, and customer focus.
