Case Study: Axelerate achieves global reach and rapid IoT scaling with Microsoft Azure

Swedish startup takes its IoT platform global with Microsoft Azure

Axelerate, a small Swedish startup, provides an enterprise-ready IoT, telematics, and M2M cloud platform that helps customers connect and manage large fleets of devices. Facing the limits of on-premises deployments, the company needed a global, scalable solution to shorten time-to-market, support worldwide deployments, and compete with much larger vendors while operating with a very small team.

By building its platform on Microsoft Azure and leveraging services such as IoT Hub, Application Insights, Cortana Intelligence, and Azure Machine Learning, Axelerate simplified deployment, enabled weekly updates across multiple datacenters, and achieved near‑infinite scalability with just five employees. The result is faster time-to-value, stronger analytics and security, white‑label capabilities that level the playing field with big competitors, and the ability to deploy IoT solutions globally in days.
