“We needed the ability to add features to manage the large growth we were seeing in the cloud. But primarily, we wanted to enable our customers to find a particular item that they were looking for to restore or recover in their environment very quickly. For that, we knew we needed a way to perform ad hoc searches for data. We looked at a few different options and ended up choosing Azure Data Explorer (ADX) because it was a straightforward solution. It didn’t require a lot of management and fit neatly within our needs.”
"Microsoft has been an essential partner for Volpara in the delivery of this life-saving technology."
"The Microsoft team’s enthusiasm made us excited about the possibility of using Translator in the classroom. It wasn’t ASR in the traditional sense; it followed a new trajectory. From pronouncing students’ names to ‘remembering’ specific content and technical terms—we saw that it could be a big help to our students."
"Cordova integration in Visual Studio helped us develop the education app quicker, especially since we couldn’t dedicate full-time resources to it. The other aspect of this is seeing eyes light up when we say, ‘What if we can go just a few steps beyond what you originally asked for and solve some of your major issues?"
“Most of the time, adopt-a-school donors will pay for water for an activity or will sponsor toothbrushes or something like that for the kids. But we wanted to do what software people do.”
"We might need to set up a proof of concept that spans multiple geographies. Azure scalability … gives us the ability to start a new project almost instantly."
"By using Care Innovations solutions running on Azure, we can show customers that they can cut costs and improve patient adherence to treatment protocols. For example, if we can keep a diabetic’s blood glucose level steady, that is a huge value to the patient as well as to those who pay for that patient’s care."
“To me, it’s all about change, Azure enables us to make changes quickly and repeatedly, and that means that in addition to speeding testing processes, we can address different business requirements very quickly. We’re working with smaller teams now, yet we’re able to be far more effective and agile.”
“Using Azure gives us great savings in terms of cutting not just labor hours but also dollars, because we don’t have to maintain hardware.”
"With Collabreate, organizations can improve sales with better presentations leading to improved close rates, and improve the bottom line by reducing the time it takes to create presentations."
"Every service we don’t have to build from the ground up or string together puts us ahead. With Azure, we can build it almost as fast as we can think it. We can exercise the services that fit our use cases and focus on the unique products that energy market customers expect from us."
"With Microsoft Azure services, our customers can now use DecryptNaBox on an as-needed basis to handle investigations and avoid making a large investment in infrastructure."
“Federal regulations make it very difficult to get possession of an employee’s private key, which slows down investigations. The other problem was responding to Freedom of Information Act requests, which required searching across all emails for specific keywords. It wouldn’t be possible to get every employee’s private key with current policies.”
"If we could move the email component out of the database and put it into some other NoSQL type of storage, then how were we going to make it searchable? We had been talking about this for over a year. Now we have a way to do it with Azure Search."
"The move to the cloud brought up all sorts of security questions, and it quickly became clear that our data would be safer in the Microsoft cloud than in our own datacenters. After all, Microsoft is an expert in enterprise security."
