Case Study: British Heart Foundation achieves increased fundraising and reliable online services with Rackspace Technology on Microsoft Azure

Successful Migration Allows British Heart Foundation to Boost Fundraising, Outreach Goals

The British Heart Foundation (BHF), the UK’s largest independent funder of heart and circulatory research, needed a more robust, agile web platform to support its ambitious goal of eliminating heart disease by 2030. Because BHF’s website houses fundraising campaigns, an online retail store and essential information for stakeholders, it had to remain available and perform under high-traffic events like World Heart Day — and the charity needed an experienced partner to guide a safe migration.

Rackspace migrated BHF to Microsoft Azure using a consultative approach from Rackspace Professional Services, completing a six-month migration with zero downtime. The move now powers a more resilient fundraising site and online shop, enabling BHF to better handle traffic spikes and advance its fundraising and outreach goals.
