Best Western GB case study

A Northdoor case study about Best Western GB’s migration of over 100 of public-facing websites to Microsoft Azure. Northdoor provided a PCI-compliant infrastructure and moved Best Western GB to the latest versions of Microsoft Windows and Microsoft SQL Server.

The Challenge

Best Western GB hosts more than 100 websites for its member hotels. As the company approached the end of its existing contract with its managed services provider, it wanted to increase flexibility, reduce costs, accelerate new releases, and simplify PCI compliance.

The Solution

• Chose Northdoor to update and migrate its existing website infrastructure to the Azure cloud
• Northdoor refined and upgraded systems before ensuring a smooth migration to the cloud
• The new environment takes advantage of a protected zone for PCI compliance

The Benefits

Assisted by Northdoor, Best Western GB achieved a rapid, trouble-free migration to the cloud. Northdoor used its long experience of serving financial services companies to ensure that the new environment would comply with PCI regulations. In addition to significantly reducing costs and improving availability, the new environment on Azure – supported by Northdoor in its role as CSP – enables Best Western GB to adapt its services easily as requirements change.
