(1888PressRelease) July 25, 2015 - Seattle, WA - SAGlobal, the leading global provider of Microsoft Dynamics AX ERP solutions and services for project-driven businesses, today announced their new Azure Managed Services offering to assist clients with monitoring and maintaining their Microsoft Dynamics AX ERP environments on the Microsoft Azure cloud platform. This customizable service is available immediately through all SAGlobal worldwide offices.

Used by over 22,000 organizations around the world, Microsoft Dynamics AX is Microsoft's flagship global Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software system. Deploying Microsoft Dynamics AX on the Microsoft Azure platform provides organizations with an agile and secure cloud platform that eliminates the need to install some or all of their Dynamics AX environments in an on premise datacenter.

While the Azure platform provides the underlying hardware (virtual machines), storage, and networking capabilities required to run the Dynamics AX system, the standard Azure offering requires customers to monitor and update the operating systems, database, and other applications and services that are installed within their Azure environment. This includes maintenance activities such as optimizing system performance, monitoring available storage space, installing critical security patches, updating the OS and database, and other platform management tasks.

SAGlobal's Azure Managed Services contracts are targeted at organizations that prefer not to manage these platform components using internal IT resources, SAGlobal provides ongoing 24*7 monitoring and management of the underlying Dynamics AX platform to ensure that its clients' Azure environments are always up to date and optimized for maximum performance.

"The Microsoft Azure cloud platform is gaining significant traction in the marketplace", stated Kathy Nohr, Global COO for SAGlobal. "With our long history of working with Microsoft Dynamics AX, our System Engineers have the right level of experience with the Microsoft technology stack to help our global clients effectively manage their Microsoft Dynamics AX application in Azure. We view this offering as a valuable service that we can provide our clients which will help them to allocate critical IT resources to more strategic initiatives".

SAGlobal's Azure Managed Services contracts are designed to be flexible so that each client receives the appropriate level of support. In addition to standard services such as ongoing environment monitoring, system patching, performance tuning and network optimization services, SAGlobal also offers advanced managed services such as backup management and verification services and virus and security monitoring services on an optional basis. Other platform support services are also available through SAGlobal on a customer-by-customer basis as necessary.
