Indiaplaza.com has migrated to Microsoft’s Windows Azure platform to meet the growing traffic on their e-commerce portal. Windows Azure helps Indiaplaza.com run the application on the latest versions of the cloud platform through automatic upgrade of Compute/database versions along with patches and updates, enabling Indiaplaza.com to focus on its core business of selling online versus the need to manage a large and complex IT environment.
Srikanth Karnakota, Director, Server and Cloud Business, Microsoft India said, “Indiaplaza.com is one of the largest e-commerce players which has adopted Windows Azure cloud platform for meeting its demand of the growing customer base. This platform will ensure smooth customer experience and will strengthen its position in the e-commerce industry. The capability to scale-up and scale-down as per the requirement makes Windows Azure platform the best solution.”
K Vaitheeswaran, Founder & CEO, Indiaplaza.com, said, “Since 1999, when we started India’s first online shopping site, we have been using Microsoft applications for our business. When we observed scalability challenges on our site given the rapid increase in traffic and transactions, we decided to move to Cloud Computing and it was an easy decision to opt for Windows Azure. We are now ready to welcome millions of shoppers to Indiaplaza.com without any worries.”
