Streamatics is an organization involved in processing data and performing analytics. They perform Data Analysis on Petabytes of data. All this data is received from a world-wide network of sensors and other such devices. The flow of data from these devices fluctuates unpredictably frequently. Processing of huge amounts of data, with high accuracy and speed, takes a huge toll on Streamatic’s on-premise servers. Streamatics has decided to migrate its entire data processing engine on Azure’s cloud for faster and easier data ingestion as well as analysis. The resources of the organization are securely accessed using the Windows Active Directory. Since the organization has started leveraging Azure SaaS service, the exchange server of the organization has been moved to Azure AD thus giving employees access to the SaaS services. The company currently has SCOM for managing the entire infrastructure.
