With a Cloud based mobile application, the City of Brampton in Ontario, Canada was able to count the number of residents who attended a local event, and more specifically - identify how many residents attended from each of the city’s 10 wards. 

Developed on Microsoft Azure for Windows Phones, the application took just two months to implement from concept to completion. According to RedBit (the developer) , it took around 15 minutes to move the application onto the City's Azure service account (the Cloud equivalent to the City's own servers) once completed.
