A Microsoft Azure Case Study
Nabekai, a large Japanese demolition company known for mechanization and heavy‑machinery innovation, faced urgent website problems as TV exposure drove traffic spikes. The site slowed under load, had security concerns, and lacked smart‑device compatibility; its vendor’s proprietary CMS was hard to update, increasing maintenance overhead and making a fast, reliable upgrade a priority.
Nabekai migrated the site to Microsoft Azure with partner Prime Strategy, deploying KUSANAGI for Microsoft Azure on Azure Virtual Machines and running WordPress from the Azure Marketplace with a responsive design. The result was dramatically improved performance and stability (KUSANAGI can run WordPress far faster than a comparable LAMP setup), better security and disaster‑recovery coverage, easier content management, and a mobile‑friendly, surge‑resilient site.
