Please join us in celebrating PRISM’s induction onto the Garage Wall of Fame.
Faced with the challenge of ensuring the right spare part is available at the right time for Azure’s global datacenter fleet, a Microsoft Hackathon team built a predictive, AI-powered solution to transform the spares supply chain. Born at Hackathon 2024, PRISM uses advanced machine learning and live telemetry to forecast failures, generate early demand signals, and enable proactive spares placement—keeping Azure’s backbone strong for mission-critical operations.
What started as a bold prototype is now a live, integrated system, already preventing outages and improving reliability for customers worldwide. PRISM’s innovation is helping Azure meet the industry’s “five nines” standard for uptime, supporting everything from emergency response to global sporting events. The team’s work is setting a new bar for predictive maintenance and supply chain agility—expanding the legacy of fellow Garage Wall of Fame projects.
