Gradatim migrates to Windows Azure
Gradatim has migrated to the Windows Azure cloud platform to simplify its service configuration and gain global scalability, achieving an 84-per cent decrease in project deployment time and saving an estimated US$2 million.
"We wanted a Platform-as-a-Service solution, not just cloud infrastructure. We concluded that Windows Azure offered the best long-term value and the most reliable cloud platform for transforming our business," said C. V. Prakash, Founder & CEO, Gradatim.
Windows Azure allowed Gradatim to not only shift to cloud-based delivery of its products but also to make major improvements to its pricing model. Rather than buying a perpetual licence to access the software, customers can choose to pay a nominal subscription fee, along with a percentage of the value of each transaction or a fixed fee for each loan or insurance policy they manage, using Gradatim technology.
"We are excited about the impact this migration has for Gradatim and its customers. Azure has been enabling customers to innovate, reduce time to market and access newer markets. The current offering from Gradatim strengthens its position in the finance industry as a company focussed on delivering affordable, high-caliber service," said Srikanth Karnakota, Director, Server and Cloud Business, Microsoft India.
