OnAsset, a global leader in IoT-based asset tracking, engaged TaylorMade Software to modernize its Azure cloud infrastructure and reduce ballooning operational costs. Their platform relied on legacy Function Apps and high-usage services such as CosmosDB, Redis, and Service Bus.

We transitioned Azure Function Apps from Node.js to TypeScript using the NX Narwhal monorepo pattern, improving modularity and maintainability. At the same time, we managed and supported legacy C#.NET Core APIs and Angular/AngularJS front ends to ensure platform stability.

To optimize cost, we implemented targeted alerting and usage caps across critical Azure services. As a result, monthly cloud spend was reduced from $100K to $45K, delivering a 55% operational cost savings.

We designed event-driven serverless architecture patterns for IoT telemetry processing and formalized Azure CI/CD pipelines for application and infrastructure deployments. These upgrades laid the groundwork for scalable, performant, and maintainable cloud infrastructure.

Our work concluded with the enablement of Snowflake-based analytics and PowerBI dashboards to drive long-term insight and reporting across IoT workflows.
