1. Motion Capture Company Relies on Microsoft Azure to Grow and Pivot with Industry Needs
“Microsoft has been a key factor in the success of Kinetisense. Customer data is transmitted and stored securely on Azure. Hosting our app on Microsoft Azure has allowed us to reach more people.” – Vangos Pterneas, Chief Technology Officer, Kinetisense
SITUATION
Starting a software company outside of an international technology cluster, where supporting infrastructure simply does not exist, makes it extremely difficult to compete in the technology industry. Prior to moving to the cloud, Kinetisense ran on local networks. By operating locally, Kinetisense lacked the ability to scale globally and provide durable, highly available, secure storage solutions for Kinetisense users.
