Reasons to modernize

• Aging infrastructure

• Low efficiency and reliability.

• High operational costs and capital expenditure.

• Growing security, audit, and compliance requirements.

• Inflexible and unable to keep up with business growth.

• Stagnant architecture

• Legacy stack and code.

• Long deployment times and release cycles.

• Incompatibilities with modern software systems.

• It’s hard or impossible to add new functionality.

• Innovation is happening outside IT, unmanaged.

Why modernize?

Siemens Health leverages technology to connect medical devices to the cloud through AKS

Challenge: Siemens needed to speed up their development process to make the

transition from value-added services provider to platform provider.

Solution: Siemens adopted Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS) to speed up application

development and run their microservices-based apps.

Outcome: With AKS, Siemens has driven newfound product development agility. AKS

enables them to use an applicant gateway and API management to manage

exposure, control, and to meter the access continuously.

The managed Azure Kubernetes Service puts us really into a position to not

only deploy our business logic in Docker containers, including the

orchestration, but it’s also really easy through application gateway and API

management to manage that exposure and control and meter the access

continuously.

Japanese financial technology company speeds app development, expands market using cloud platform

We created the system on Azure with technical support from Microsoft. Because

we could transfer Ruby on Rails in its existing state, using Docker containers, we

encountered no technical problems.

Haley Koike, Development Manager, Crowd Cast

Challenge: Crowd Cast experienced growing demands for Staple, their cloud-based

expense management service, and wanted to increase its development speed

and agility to meet demand from enterprise customers.

Solution: The company switched its platform as a service (PaaS) environment from

Heroku and Amazon Web Services to Microsoft Azure, transferring its Ruby

on Rails development environment using Docker containers and App Service.

Outcome: With App Service on Linux, Crowd Cast developers can take advantage of the

agility and scalability of the microservices approach, building their app as a

small set of services, while reducing the complexity of managing

microservices deployments.

Rapidly growing software company attracts customers with seamless cloud demo experience

We are far more responsive to customer needs since adding Azure Container Instances. Our Marketplace demos are powerful marketing tools for Jedox, and we’ve used Azure to improve the customer experience significantly.

Vladislav Malicevic , Vice President Development and Support, Jedox

Challenge: Jedox needed a more lightweight compute unit than virtual machines to

power its website demos and provide a good customer experience.

Solution: The company used Microsoft Azure Container Instances to support the Jedox

Marketplace and power its demos.

Outcome: With ACI, Jedox is able to spin up customer demos on demand, improve

provisioning speed, build confidence in the cloud, and lower IT costs.

Next Games powers its global augmented reality game in Microsoft Azure

In addition to all the new services, Microsoft is constantly improving existing

Azure services … This continual improvement enhances our games and makes

our lives easier.

Kalle Hiitola, Chief Technology Officer and Cofounder, Next Games

Challenge: Next Games required a lot of back-end processing power—processing power

that was sited close to players, wherever they wanted to play in the world.

The company also needed database and compute services that could handle

massive amounts of geo-distributed data.

Solution: Next Games adopted a microservices-based development and hosting

environment that relies on Azure Service Fabric, Azure Functions, and Azure

Cosmos DB to provide very fast, very low-overhead support of geo-

distributed data services.

Outcome: Azure Service Fabric handles the passage of messages between players, and

Azure Cosmos DB provides a geo-distributed database that locates player

data geographically close to the player and coordinates player matchups.

Enable applications and algorithms to

easily and efficiently run in parallel at scale.

environment and dependencies.
