Vivo (Curitiba Data Center) Data Center

Global Village Telecom (GVT) is a premier Brazilian telecommunications provider that has been operating since 2000. As a subsidiary of the French media conglomerate Vivendi, GVT has established itself as the fastest growing entity within Brazil's telecommunications sector. The company maintains a massive footprint, operating across 17 states and the Distrito Federal. Its market strategy is built upon a dual promise of high tier service quality and exceptional consumer value, catering to both the retail consumer market and the complex needs of modern enterprises.

The GVT group extends its reach through specialized subsidiaries that enhance its core service offerings. This ecosystem includes POP, the group's Internet Service Provider (ISP), and Vono, which serves as the exclusive provider for Voice over IP (VoIP) solutions. By integrating these specialized units, GVT is able to offer a seamless telecommunications experience, ranging from traditional fixed line telephony to advanced digital voice and data communication tools for a diverse client base.

To support its advanced digital services, GVT operates three strategic Data Centers located in Brazil’s primary economic hubs: São Paulo (Guarulhos), Rio de Janeiro, and Curitiba (Paraná). These facilities serve as the backbone for the company’s hosting and data management services. By placing infrastructure in these key regions, GVT ensures low latency and high availability for businesses requiring localized data processing and secure storage solutions within the Brazilian territory.

GVT offers an extensive suite of solutions designed to meet the demands of the modern digital economy. Their portfolio includes Unified Communications, robust data network solutions, and both dedicated and broadband internet access. Beyond connectivity, they provide comprehensive management solutions and a deep stack of Data Center services. These range from physical Colocation and server monitoring to high level Cloud Computing solutions, including Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) and Software as a Service (SaaS).

The company’s facilities are engineered to high technical standards, specifically following a Tier 3 design to ensure high uptime and redundancy. A typical GVT facility features approximately 200 sq.m. of fully built out whitespace and is capable of supporting a maximum power density of 4,000 kW per rack. Since becoming operational in 2011, these retrofitted, sole tenant buildings have provided a controlled environment for critical hardware, featuring dedicated Meet Me Rooms (MMR) and roof access for diverse connectivity needs.

Security and flexibility are pillars of GVT’s infrastructure management. The data centers are protected by 24/7 onsite security staff to ensure the physical integrity of client hardware. Furthermore, GVT offers a highly customizable environment for equipment, providing everything from full and partial cabinets to shared rack space, cages, and suite footprints. This is complemented by "Remote Hands" support, allowing clients to manage their infrastructure through GVT’s onsite technical experts without needing to be physically present.
