Case Study: BlueIT accelerates digital transformation and reduces carbon emissions with IBM Turbonomic and IBM Instana

Accelerating digital transformation and reducing environmental impact

BlueIT, an Italian IT services provider and benefit company, set out to accelerate digital transformation for its 35 clients while also reducing carbon emissions by shifting from traditional ITOps to AIOps. To gain full‑stack visibility and proactively right‑size resources across on‑premises, Azure and AWS environments, BlueIT selected IBM and deployed IBM Turbonomic and IBM Instana to assure application performance and support sustainability goals.

Using IBM Turbonomic (AI‑powered hybrid cloud cost optimization) and IBM Instana (observability), BlueIT achieved rapid time‑to‑value — Instana’s single agent installs in minutes and Turbonomic in hours — and gained actionable dashboards and AI recommendations. With IBM’s solutions BlueIT reduced mean time to recovery by 50%, cut the time to execute resourcing actions by 60%, and delivered a 10% reduction in CPU and memory overallocation for a client, increasing utilization and helping lower clients’ carbon footprints.
