Romanian Ministry Creates National Cloud Service to Ensure Top Performance of Exams Website

 

A great case study coming from Romania, full description here:

The Romanian Ministry of Education wanted an essential website to perform well each July, when high school entrance exam results were posted there. It turned to technology partner SIVECO Romania, which recommended moving the ADLIC web publishing application to Windows Azure during peak periods. The Ministry gained ample processing power, eliminated downtime, and avoided spending US$100,000 for a comparable on-premises infrastructure.
