Split ~ Vision is an established organization in the field of digital transformation. With its no-coding business platform "GoverMaxx", Split ~ Vision realizes controlled growth and successful digital transformations for companies,organizations and government.
Until recently, Split ~ Vision used a local data center with 'on premise' servers, both for its own business operations, for its SaaS customers and for its international software development team. Because of reliability, availability and stability requirements of the application, Split ~ Vision made the strategic choice to fully migrate the environment to Microsoft Azure and Azure DevOps.
About Split Vision
Split ~ Vision has more than 40 years of experience as an expert consultant in digitization and sustainable design of information management in changing organizations. Over the past 15 years, they have developed the GoverMaxx platform, a scalable no-coding business platform with Office 365 integration.
GoverMaxx enables organizations to centrally manage and consume information for all employees, from every perspective of the organization and all available information sources. For every type of organization GoverMaxx offers the device that meets the needs of a growing organization, so that its information is "in control" and meets the required compliance and governance.
With regards to availability, reliability and stability, Split ~ Vision wanted to fully migrate its environment to Microsoft Azure and use Azure DevOps.
The challenge
Split ~ Vision used TFS 2013, an older on-premise version of Azure DevOps Server. However, this no longer met the quality requirements that Split ~ Vision strives for. Marloes Rutten, product manager of Split ~ Vision said: "we want to put everything in order by migrating all IT applications and all data to a new infrastructure in the cloud".
After attending the DevOps on Azure workshop at Intercept, she was quickly convinced of the functionality that Azure DevOps Services has to offer, including the automated test and deployment functions. wich exactly meets the monthly GoverMaxx delivery requirements to help scale the solution for Split ~ Vision. Split ~ Vision then decided to collaborate with Intercept.
Due to the outdated hardware, the standard Microsoft migration scenario was unfortunately no longer applicable. There was a chance that the migration would require too much resources from the server. We had to look for a different solution.
