1. Mobile Services and Cloud Scalability Enable Connections Between Brands and Customers
MINI-CASE STUDY
“It became clear that Microsoft Azure was the way to go for our next generation platform and applications. That choice paid off significantly.” – Mike Hilhorst, CTO, Reperion
SITUATION
In designing a large-scale, mobile enterprise software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution, availability and scale are two key considerations. A platform for location-based services needs to reliably service millions of mobile devices sending millions of push messages, and must have inherent elasticity.

SOLUTION
Reperion’s Location Based Services Platform takes advantage of many of Microsoft Azure’s features. Reperion’s apps connect securely to Mobile Services as a single endpoint for Windows, Android, and iOS devices. Notification Hubs take care of cross- platform communications. Reperion’s apps use Microsoft Azure Active Directory for authentication.
BENEFITS
Microsoft Azure offers an uptime guarantee for reliability. Its scalability ensures customers pay only for what they use. Plus, Reperion kept the same code base even as its load increased exponentially.
Microsoft Azure Mobile Services make it easier for Reperion to support three major mobile ecosystems and have an application programming interface (API) that is easy and affordable to maintain.
