“We needed the ability to add features to manage the large growth we were seeing in the cloud.

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.”

"Both now and in the long run, Azure as a cloud environment is a big money saver because we can do everything so quickly, and its first-class support for popular open-source software makes it a winner."
