Case Study: GDM Seeds achieves scalable global growth and lower costs with Microsoft Azure

Platform in the cloud supports international growth of plant breeding company

GDM Seeds, a global plant breeding company based in Argentina, faced the challenge of needing a flexible and scalable technological platform to support its international expansion and consolidate its business operations. To accomplish its goals of improving project agility and managing growth into new geographies, the company partnered with vendor Microsoft Corporation and chose to migrate its operations to the Microsoft Azure cloud platform.

The solution implemented by Microsoft involved a detailed migration of the company's key systems, including its vital SAP software, development environments, and data warehouse, to Azure. This move provided GDM Seeds with immense flexibility, drastically reducing the time to deploy new resources from weeks to minutes and improving service availability. As a result, Microsoft's technology enabled operational cost savings of sixty percent and provided a secure, accessible foundation that supports the company's continued global growth.
