Case Study: Bridgestone enhances safe, efficient mobility with Microsoft Azure Stream Analytics

Bridgestone enhances safe, efficient mobility with Tirematics using Microsoft Azure

Bridgestone Corporation, a global tire leader, needed a more scalable way to monitor tire conditions and reduce the time, cost, and human error involved in manual inspections. The company turned to Microsoft Azure Stream Analytics as part of the Microsoft Azure IoT stack, including Azure IoT Hub, Azure Data Lake Store, and Azure Event Hubs, to power its Tirematics digital tire-monitoring service.

Microsoft Azure Stream Analytics helped Bridgestone analyze tire sensor data in real time and trigger alerts when abnormalities were detected, so service managers could respond faster. The solution moved Tirematics from an on-premises setup to Azure, launched across Europe, and expanded to 20 countries by January 2019, helping Bridgestone reduce inspection workloads, improve safety, and support timely maintenance for customers such as Hato Bus.
