"We use Azure SQL Database Hyperscale to customize a number of graph query capabilities. We have built all the tools we need at a fraction of the cost of our previous solution—with amazing performance, too."
"Not only does the cloud help us accelerate our digital transformation, it also empowers us to do the type of analytics that deliver transformation in real time."
"Azure helps us prove to our editors that Reuters can use artificial intelligence to make their jobs easier, deliver a 360-degree look at the news, and find opportunities to engage more people with more content."
“We felt Microsoft Azure was the only cloud platform that provided us the complete platform: infrastructure, scalability and redundancy, management tools, and a rich development environment. This pay-as-you-go model offered by Microsoft gave us the flexibility to add computing resources as and when needed.”
“By relying on Microsoft Azure we are taking advantage of an efficient, reliable cloud computing platform that we could never build ourselves or offer to our customers. The platform has allowed us to provide a powerful, flexible, and affordable solution, which can be easily configured by our customers to suit their specific business processes.”
"By moving 17 applications from our data center to Microsoft Azure, we have been able to decommission 35 UAT (User Acceptance Testing) servers. More importantly, we are ready for the public cloud."
"If we address capacity management from the IT standpoint and change management from the people and process viewpoint, we can ensure a smooth transition in the future."
"Earlier, we spent 3─5 weeks to provision and de-provision the servers for application development and testing. Now this is a completely automated process. We only need to put in a request."
"With Gridpro Request Management for Windows Azure Pack, we’ve reduced a two-week server-build process to one day or less … Our staff is no longer involved in low-level tasks."

"The hallmark of what we have done for business students is that we’re saying that analytics isn’t just for the supergeeks. Instead, we’re saying that … every general manager in business should be expected to have a working knowledge of data science. Azure Machine Learning allows me to expose business students to data science without bogging them down with technical minutiae."
"It’s a really fun time, because we have a product that serves a need in the insurance industry. But what’s really cool is that we’re realizing that we can pursue other market verticals with the platform that we built on Azure…. We can go from being a niche provider in insurance to supporting aggregators in other industries."
"We essentially have unlimited scalability for our ABIS solution by hosting it on Azure Government. It means police departments can work more easily to handle day-to-day issues and be ready in the unfortunate event of a major crime or terrorist attack. That’s because the system can scale up or down in all dimensions, in record time. This kind of speed and flexibility can only be achieved by partnering with a cloud provider like Microsoft."
"Overall, we see that running Talon CloudFAST software on Azure drastically accelerates business, because they can start today if they want to and benefit immediately from things like geo-redundant storage as well as easier collaboration. So it’s really an enabler, as well as an accelerator."
