Background

Today Heedbook Cloud is a leading developer of solutions in the field of computer vision and speech analytics. The company is a resident of the Skolkovo innovation center and an official partner of Microsoft. For several years Heedbook Cloud has been actively cooperating with Noventiq in the ISV (Independent Software Vendors) program. Companies that have created unique services based on Azure are invited to participate in this program. 

The reliability and performance of Heedbook Cloud products and their market
position largely depend on the performance of the cloud infrastructure. To assess the infrastructure, as well as scalability and recovery options, plus the security level and cost efficiency of cloud services, the Skolkovo resident turned to its partner, Noventiq company.

Solution

As the best solution capable of comprehensive analysis of Azure environment health, Noventiq experts offered Azure Health Checkup service. This was added to the company's product portfolio right after Noventiq passed the international certification of Azure Expert Managed Service Provider (MSP). The service analyzes the health of the cloud infrastructure. It highlights its most important blocks, identifies redundant elements, and points out the potential malfunctions and failures. Azure Health Checkup provides the customer with complete visibility into the Azure environment's compliance with all security and operational requirements, and points out the inefficient use of cloud resources and money.

Results

“Due to the Azure Health Checkup service Noventiq experts provided the detailed map
of our cloud infrastructure. We clearly saw the services and virtual machines that we
use and assessed the efficiency of cloud resources using. After conducting an in-depth analysis of Azure environment, the provider's experts have developed monitoring dashboards and made recommendations in the field of security that we will implement in our day-to-day operations", said Alexey Maslov, Chief Information Officer at Heedbook Cloud.

"After receiving the prestigious Azure Expert MSP status at the end of last year Noventiq is actively providing Azure Health Checkup service for companies. Not only IT companies, but also large retail chains have experienced the advantages of this service. The service highlights all the "dark spots" in the cloud infrastructure, thus helping to improve its performance. We do not expect Azure Health Checkup to be a one-time service that customers need to cover their urgent needs. We are actively working to ensure that Azure users regularly choose our service. Only in this way they can achieve the top performance of Azure environment and significantly reduce the cost of its operation", - shared the secret of the service's popularity Yegor Bavykin, Head
of Azure Solutions Sales Group at Noventiq.
