PORTSMOUTH, N.H.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Position Imaging, Inc. announced today that its cloud-based Package and Asset Tracking Systems (PAATS) will be built on Microsoft Azure.
“Because our PAATS platform will be hosting massive amounts of data from the movement of packages and assets throughout the logistics processes, it was very important to choose a cloud platform that helps us scale for and protect the data our applications will generate,” says Ned Hill, CEO of Position Imaging. “Microsoft’s data centers, efforts to secure cloud data privacy, predictive analytics, and the technical team at the Microsoft Innovation Center in Cambridge were major factors in our decision to choose Microsoft Azure.”
Steve Ramsay, director for Developer, Student and Startup Evangelism for Microsoft Corp. said, “Position Imaging is building a solution that has the opportunity to add value to the logistics industry. Their PAATS cloud solution will be able to leverage the power, global scale and enterprise-grade security of Microsoft Azure to handle the significant data storage requirements.”
