Case Study: Nine Dynamics achieves faster, democratized investment analytics with Microsoft Azure Stream Analytics

Finance analytics startup delivers transformative insights, democratizes intelligence with Power BI Embedded

Nine Dynamics, a Calgary-based financial technology startup, needed a better way to deliver investment analytics that were fast, understandable, and accessible to a broader range of users. Using Microsoft Azure Stream Analytics alongside other Microsoft Azure and Power BI services, the company set out to replace slow, manual analysis and make sophisticated financial insights easier to use for portfolio managers, analysts, and retail investors.

Microsoft Azure Stream Analytics helped power a platform that gathers data from Azure SQL Database, processes it with Azure Analysis Services, and delivers real-time updates through Power BI Embedded. The result was faster scenario analysis, with some complex insights that previously could take all day in spreadsheets now delivered in less than 15 minutes, plus stronger customer engagement and a more democratized, high-caliber analytics experience.
