Atos opens Technology Operations Center for Rio 2016 Games

Atos and Rio 2016 officially opened the Technology Operations Centre for the Rio 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games. The official opening comes during the 15th project review by the International Olympic Committee when the TOC is visited as part of the IT readiness review.

The TOC in the host city will be supported remotely by a new permanent Technical Technology Operations Center (TTOC) in Spain. This will be the operating model for the future Games that will be delivered fully in SaaS and over the cloud.

The TOC is the control and command center for technology that supervises all 144 Olympic competition and non-competition venues. During Games time, this 800-square metre facility will monitor and control the IT systems that support the running of the Games and deliver the results from all the Olympic and Paralympic sports competitions to the world’s media in real time.

Since the start of the test events which started on 15 July this year, the Rio 2016 TOC has been operational with a core team. From 25 July 2016, the TOC will operate at full capacity with 500 business technologists covering 187 positions to manage and monitor 24/7 the technology infrastructure and systems. These include IT security, telecommunications, power and the results systems. It will be staffed by a combined team comprising the Rio 2016 Technology team and Atos, who are operating it jointly and the other technology partners.
