Case Study: Hosters (Danish managed hosting provider) achieves rapid growth and global scalability with Microsoft Azure

Savvy Danish managed hosting provider helps customers soar with cloud computing

Hosters is a Danish, Microsoft-aligned managed hosting provider that moved from traditional on‑premises services to a cloud-first model to stay competitive and better serve customers. When ISV customer 1Step2Cloud wanted to deliver Microsoft Dynamics NAV as a global SaaS offering, Hosters faced technical and operational challenges: enabling global availability and compliance, eliminating slow, hardware‑dependent proof‑of‑concept (POC) processes, and building developer skills to orchestrate cloud infrastructure.

Hosters built a repeatable Azure-based solution using Virtual Machines, Azure SQL Database, Azure AD, Backup, Service Bus, Load Balancer, and DNS to power a self-service portal. The result: POCs deploy in hours instead of days, 1Step2Cloud eliminated CAPEX and grew revenue 6–8% per month, and Hosters established a scalable cloud offering that positions it as a trusted advisor and supports projected company growth of about 500% over the next 18 months.
