MINI-CASE STUDY
“Azure provides the full stack of technology that enables the easy deployment of a quick-to-scale solution for an enterprise-class file sync and share. You can now have your own drag-and-drop solution under your complete control.” – Alex Wang, VP of Product, BYOC Inc.

Solutions based on public cloud storage accounts cannot be adopted by most enterprises due to concerns of data security and compliance. The Bizfss platform, supported by Azure, was created to fulfill this increasing need.
