How Microsoft Finance Improved Reliability With SQL Azure

Publish Date: 23 / 03 / 2022

Microsoft Finance’s Payee Management Application was extremely unreliable due to the old monolithic on-premises infrastructure. The application constantly failed and fixes and updates were extremely time consuming, and user experience was very poor. Microsoft Finance migrated its application to the cloud where it could take advantage of SQL Azure, Microsoft’s cloud database service. SQL Azure would allow the company to not only store relational data but to easily scale the size of its databases with the business. By using SQL Azure, the Payee Management Application has very little downtime. Issues can be resolved and updates implemented quickly and effectively, teams can collaborate and experiment with new features, and the application can be scaled at the click of a button.
