Case Study: Roma Capitale improves application performance and reduces infrastructure costs with IBM Turbonomic

How Rome approaches digital transformation

Roma Capitale, the municipal government for the city of Rome, needed to improve the performance of its complex IT environment supporting digital citizen services. With 2.87 million citizens relying on systems like online portals, the team struggled with legacy, manually managed infrastructure and limited visibility across containers, virtual machines, and physical servers. They turned to IBM Turbonomic to help reduce performance risk and better manage resources.

IBM implemented IBM Turbonomic with Dynatrace integration to give Roma Capitale full-stack visibility and AI-powered resourcing recommendations. The team was able to proactively optimize 800 workloads, reduce RAM and CPU usage by 15%, and achieve 10% hardware cost reduction while avoiding the need for additional hosts.
