Case Study: The Warehouse Group achieves cost savings and productivity gains with Lab3 Azure migration

The Warehouse Group migrates 750+ servers to Azure in 12 months with Lab3

The Warehouse Group, one of New Zealand's largest retailers, faced substantial ongoing costs from maintaining its aging on-premises infrastructure. Their challenge was to migrate over 750 servers to the cloud to achieve significant cost reduction, greater resilience, and improved security. They partnered with vendor Lab3 and Microsoft Azure for this large-scale migration project.

Lab3 implemented a staggered 12-month migration using AI-powered tools like Dr Migrate to automate the process and minimize disruption. The solution provided The Warehouse Group with predictable cloud costs and a more energy-efficient infrastructure. As a result, the retailer is already piloting Azure AI to optimize product pricing and reduce manual data updates, achieving millions in cost savings and positioning itself strongly for the future.
