The pressure to innovate is leaving many large, traditional consumer goods companies in a froth. How can they modernize their businesses to offer customers and consumers a smooth experience? Given their size, they face a significant conundrum. They need to deliver an enhanced experience at an unprecedented scale across traditional and digital channels while remaining agile enough to compete with dynamic new entrants. Accenture helped Carlsberg solve this dilemma with an open, cloud-based IT architecture that can operate at scale to increase channels, reach and speed.

Strategy and solution
Accenture and Avanade worked closely with Microsoft and SAP to help Carlsberg transition their core infrastructure and business-critical applications to the Microsoft Azure public cloud in less than six months.
The transition, including the whole SAP application suite, covered more than 150 terabytes of data on:
600
Servers
200
Applications
10K
Employees
Transformation
The Azure platform enables Carlsberg and their partners to accelerate innovation with artificial intelligence, DevOps and analytics. For example, the brewery recently launched “Carrie,” a security chatbot solution developed by Avanade, through which employees can get 24/7 support for requests regarding security rules and regulations.
With their journey to cloud, Carlsberg is better positioned to take advantage of emerging technologies that enable them to quickly and easily innovate and launch new services and solutions for customers, business partners and employees.
