Case Study: Apcotex (India's leading synthetic rubber & latex producer) achieves 40% cost savings by migrating and unifying Microsoft NAV to the cloud with Datamatics

Apcotex Migrates MS Dynamics From On Premise To Cloud

Apcotex, a leading Indian producer of synthetic rubber and synthetic latex, engaged Datamatics to move and merge two companies’ Microsoft NAV ERP instances from an on‑premises datacenter to the cloud within one month. Apcotex was struggling with rising datacenter support costs, administrative overhead (firewalls, tape backups, hardware and licensing), and the need for secure, low‑bandwidth access from multiple remote factory locations while consolidating ERP systems after an acquisition.

Datamatics’ Cloud & MS Dynamics team assessed the environment, consolidated both NAV databases into a single cloud solution on AWS, implemented IPsec‑based redundant site VPNs using existing SD‑WAN/firewall and AWS VPN Gateway, provisioned Remote Desktop access for users, and automated SQL backups to S3. The Datamatics solution lowered TCO by consolidating servers, improved uptime and application responsiveness for remote users, and delivered measurable results including an estimated 40% cost savings over four years and scheduled SQL backups every three hours with cloud storage durability.
