Aidmatrix saves 20 percent in data center costs with cloud solution

Business Situation

Instead of setting up and tearing down physical infrastructure to deliver its aid solutions, The Aidmatrix Foundation needed a more scalable, cost-effective platform for global disaster relief.

Solution

The company chose Avanade and Accenture to help migrate three key solutions to Windows® Azure™, a cloud-based environment for running applications and storing data on servers in Microsoft data centers around the world.

Results

Aidmatrix has a responsive, scalable, and cost-effective distribution mechanism for its disaster relief solutions. Aidmatrix IT staff members are more productive now that they don’t have to administer servers. Hosting its software in the Windows Azure environment could reduce data center costs by 20 percent. And because its cloud-based applications are ready to deploy and retire at a moment’s notice, Aidmatrix can help disaster response organizations deliver aid to those in need as quickly as possible.
