Azure Well-Architected Review for GroundScope

Company Name

Location

United Kingdom

Client

GroundScope is a leading UK-based service that provides business cars to clients around the world. The company lets traveling employees manage their journey by providing access to a fully vetted ground transport provider network.

Challenge

The car booking platform, which runs on Azure cloud platform, was experiencing performance issues with its current system. Therefore, the working team decided to conduct an Azure Well-Architected Review (WAR) to identify the root cause of the issues and improve the overall performance and status of the system.

Solution

The Azure Well-Architected Review (WAR) provides an opportunity to review the current state of the project against Microsoft’s best practices ​and identify areas for improvement. Thus, the working team received the WAR report containing recommendations to improve the system based on the cloud architecture pillars: security, operational excellence, performance efficiency, reliability, and cost optimization.

Business Benefits

The working team implemented most of the recommendations provided in the WAR analysis report, as a result of which the system’s stability has been greatly improved. This advancement has enabled our client to use the system freely and without the risk of any downtime, resulting in a better experience for the client and a more reliable service for the business.

The conducted Well-Architected Review (WAR) used a relatively small amount of our resources. At the end of the process, we were provided with a detailed review and some excellent insights into enhancements we could make to improve the performance of the system, many of which were very easy to implement.
Before WAR, we found ourselves improving the performance just by purchasing extra processing power from Azure. The WAR has enabled us to tackle any issue in a much more planned, structured, and cost-effective way.
