Intelisale: Migration and management of Microsoft Azure subscription

“Partnering with the Mainstream team helped us implement proven know-how of Azure infrastructure and best-practices. Timely support that Mainstream provides is invaluable; their knowledge and experience help us solve all of our challenges.”  

Novak Cvjetan

Intelisale is the developer of an advanced omni-channel platform that enhances B2B sales processes. With a track-record of improving sales performance, the platform has been experiencing a steady growth of users year after year. As a result, the company recognised the need to enable a more scalable infrastructure that could grow with its business, and decided to host some of its software solutions on the cloud. Amongst other reasons, cloud technology was chosen because of its fast implementation, which helps achieve a shorter time frame for meeting users’ needs.  

Intelisale chose to host their solutions on the Azure cloud. From a business perspective, Azure was the best fit as the company’s entire technology stack is based on Microsoft solutions. Seeking to leverage their cloud infrastructure in the most efficient way, Intelisale relied on Mainstream’s support for the migration to a new Azure subscription.  

“Our priority is to maintain the highest possible level of service for our clients and we decided to look for a partner that could help us meet that goal. As SEE’s leading cloud provider, Mainstream was the best choice for the migration of our Azure subscription. Their expertise enables us to establish a stable and reliable solution without compromising service quality, said Novak Cvjetan, Head of Engineering at Intelisale. 

Project activities 

A number of applications, the majority of which were written with n.NET and nodejes, were deployed on Azure using Azure Apps Services for web application hosting and Azure Functions for serverless computing. To meet some specific requirements of end-users, Azure VMs was also used.  

“Because the majority of our systems are interconnected, one of the key challenges was the migration of Azure-native solutions, such as Azure VPN Gateway, that require consistent uptime. The Mainstream team carefully analysed our challenges and helped us plan and execute a migration with minimal system downtime, as well as minimal expenses,” Cvjetan explained. He added that, since there was a large number of microservices that had to be migrated, the use of Jenkins was a way to simplify the migration process by moving code to a preprepared environment.
