More with less: Up to $30K saved with 95% of infrastructure on Azure
Innovating while maintaining regulatory compliance and cost control is a constant challenge. Crediclub achieved that balance by migrating 95% of its infrastructure to Microsoft Azure, meeting national data residency requirements. “By connecting our hardware to Azure and eliminating traditional telecom contracts, the organization reduced operational costs by up to $30,000 per month,” says Morales Leal.
This transformation not only delivered immediate savings but also gave the IT team greater autonomy to manage resources—ensuring a smooth transition with no operational disruptions and an improved user experience. “The maturity of Microsoft’s telecommunications solutions and the opening of the Central Mexico region marked a turning point,” says Jasiel González, Network and Infrastructure Manager at Crediclub. “They allowed us to reduce costs and gain agility at the same time.”
What’s Next: AI, Microsoft Azure Databricks , and More
The relationship with Microsoft goes far beyond technology. From an IT perspective, one of the most valued aspects is access to knowledge: clear documentation, active forums, and effective support channels. “Microsoft is one of the few brands that really empowers. Its documentation, forums, and help channels… everything is so well structured and accessible that it drives professional growth within the ecosystem,” says González.
With a more stable, automated and secure operation, Crediclub is moving steadily towards innovation. Its Data Science team develops artificial intelligence projects with tools such as Microsoft Azure Databricks, aiming to unify information and consolidate a reliable data source. At the same time, they continue to improve the Crediclub App – launched in December 2024 – to make it the hub of all banking operations.
“The vision is clear: to be a fully digital financial institution. And to achieve this, we are moving forward hand in hand with Microsoft,” concludes Morales Leal.
More than going digital, Crediclub seeks to reinvent itself at every step, with an infrastructure that is already built for that future.
