Case Study: OpenWrks achieves secure, scalable growth with Microsoft Power BI

OpenWrks - Customer Case Study

OpenWrks is a UK fintech and open-banking innovator that works with major banks to give consumers control of their financial data. Faced with strict regulation, the need for security and massive scale as usage grew (already handling 100 million API calls and millions of transactions daily), OpenWrks chose Microsoft Power BI’s Microsoft stack — including Azure, Microsoft 365 and Power BI — to underpin its platform and meet those challenges.

Using Microsoft Power BI technologies, OpenWrks built a serverless, componentised platform on Azure with templated multi-region deployments, enabling rapid onshore rollouts, secure operations and remote working. The Microsoft-led solution let the company absorb huge demand (Tully/MyBudget saw ~700% month-on-month growth), support millions of daily transactions, and pursue its expansion targets (10,000 customers/month in 2020 and a goal of helping 10 million consumers over three years) while keeping costs and deployment times manageable.
