scalable compute power is every
medical researcher’s dream
come true.”
Allen Mao, Staff Scientist, Computational Therapeutics
Core, Beckman Research Institute, City of Hope

Azure’s handling of open source.”
Khaled El Attar, Director of Informatics, Egyptian
Ministry of Communication and Information
Technology (MCIT)

54. “Microsoft has been a strategic ally

very swiftly in line with the needs of
the business.”
Erick Jaramillo Salazar, Manager of the Big Data Center
of Excellence, BCP

55. “By combining our own IoT

and visualization of data sent
from devices and sensors.”
Tadahiro Tomisugi, Middleware Unit 2, IT
Engineering Business Control Unit, Platform
Solutions Business Unit, SCSK Corporation

56. “We were confident that if we
worked together with Microsoft,
we could leap instantly over the
hurdles that we had been unable
to cross up to that point to adopt
DevOps approach with open
source technologies.”
Toshiyuki Andou, Assistant Manager , Technology
Management Headquarters, Agile Development
Support Center
CUSTOMER SPEAK
