Case Study: Cake secures patient data and boosts collaboration with Microsoft Power BI

Startup eases end of life in a digital world, protects privacy with Microsoft 365 and Azure

Cake, led by cofounder Suelin Chen, helps families plan for end-of-life care and needed a way to protect sensitive customer data while enabling a remote, collaborative team. To meet those requirements the startup adopted Microsoft solutions including Microsoft Office 365 Business Premium/Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Power BI alongside Azure, Teams, SharePoint Online and OneNote to deliver enterprise‑grade security and productivity for a small organization.

By outsourcing critical security and collaboration tools to Microsoft Power BI and the broader Microsoft 365 suite, Cake secured enterprise-level protection for its 8-person team while keeping employees connected through Teams channels and video meetings. The implementation let Cake preserve its culture, streamline teamwork, and shift focus from managing infrastructure to serving customers, all while maintaining strong data privacy and security.
