Unified BI Cloud PaaS for Global Retail

Our Client’s Backstory

Our client is a global market leader in sleep innovation, utilizing smart bed technology to enhance user well-being for over 1 million customers. Managing a global workforce and a complex supply chain, the company operated across multiple enterprise systems for inventory, logistics, and consumer insights. Each of these legacy systems functioned as an isolated data silo, hindering holistic business intelligence. The client sought to modernize this infrastructure by transitioning to a unified Azure-based Platform as a Service (PaaS) to consolidate their data ecosystem and enable advanced BI capabilities.

The Challenges

Consolidating decades of legacy data into a modern cloud architecture required overcoming integration and operational hurdles. Key challenges included:

• Data Source Fragmentation: Ingesting and harmonizing diverse data formats from multiple legacy systems, each with unique interfaces and organizational structures.

• Live Environment Migration: Managing the transition of early-stage Proof of Concepts (POCs) into production-ready systems while business teams were already relying on them for reporting.

• Identity & Access Synchronization: Harmonizing on-prem Windows Active Directory with Azure Active Directory to ensure secure, consistent resource access across the global organization.

• Automation Gaps: Overcoming limitations in out-of-the-box cloud tools by developing custom scripts for monitoring and performance tracking of business-critical systems.

The Result

The transition to the unified BI cloud platform has improved the client’s operational transparency and technical efficiency.
