Renewi revolutionized waste management with Elastic Observability on Azure

Use case typeFault detectionUpdated Jun 13, 2026

Renewi, a European waste management company operating in six countries, modernized its IT systems by deploying Elastic Observability hosted on Microsoft Azure. The previous in-house monitoring software lacked extensibility, robust support, and security. By migrating to Elastic Cloud, Renewi enhanced the efficiency and visibility of its middleware and essential business applications like Salesforce CRM. Non-technical teams now benefit from user-friendly dashboards, which facilitate real-time fault detection and quick resolutions. Additionally, the cloud-based solution reduces energy consumption, aligns Renewi's operations with their sustainability goals, and transforms their IT infrastructure into a predictable operating expense.
