Microsoft is in the lead with a worldwide market share of over 17% and is now the leading SaaS vendor primarily due to its leadership in the high-growth collaboration segment. According to Statista, 67% of enterprises are using Azure. 45% are running apps and 22% are experimenting on the Microsoft Azure platform. And I’m sure you’ve heard that Microsoft recently bagged the $10 Billion Jedi contract for Azure.

Microsoft Consulting Services:

  • Cazton Microsoft Success Story Cloud (Azure): Azure is the fastest growing cloud in the enterprise. You must have heard, “Cloud is about value, not necessarily, about the cost.” Cloud optimization cost is the number one priority for enterprise for the next year. There are many examples of companies paying hundreds of millions of dollars in cloud costs a year and that can be remedied with a great strategy. We can help you not only with the strategy but also its successful implementation. Most importantly, we can help with cost optimization. Having worked on multiple cloud environments in different domains, we are uniquely positioned to help you with the lessons learned in optimizing costs as well as obtaining the best value out of Azure and other cloud platforms.

  • Cazton Azure Big Data Services Big Data: It's an open secret that data is more valuable than oil. It’s also an open secret that most companies struggle with data. It's because most large corporations have different types of databases and they are managed by different teams. In our experience, we have witnessed data strategies evolving within an organization. With the ever increasing adoption of No-SQL (or Not Only SQL) databases, the complexity of working with Big Data has also increased.

    A successful Big Data and AI strategy requires data collection, storage and data flow, ETL (Extract, Transform and Load), Clean up and anomaly detection, Representation, Aggregation and Training, Evaluation and Optimization.

    Azure has great Big Data and Analytics products. This includes:
    • Azure SQL Database
    • Azure Cosmos DB
    • Azure Database for PostgreSQL
    • Azure Database for MySQL
    • Azure Cache for Redis
    • Azure Databricks
    • HDInsight
    • Data Lake Analytics
    • Azure Data Lake Storage

    Our team has been instrumental in helping clients with Big Data and AI technologies that are available in Azure as a service. At the same time, by using Azure Virtual Machines on Azure, we also support the ones that may not be directly supported by Microsoft. Learn more.

  • Cazton Artificial Intelligence Services Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence: Have you heard of ONNX? ONNX is an open format to represent deep learning models. With ONNX, AI developers can more easily move models between state-of-the-art tools and choose the combination that is best for them. ONNX is developed and supported by a community of partners including Microsoft, IBM, Facebook and Amazon. Microsoft is committed to democratizing AI and some of the solutions are discussed below:
    • ML.NET: ML.NET is a free, cross-platform, open source machine learning framework made specifically for .NET developers. Did you know that ML.NET is an extensible platform? Did you know it powers Bing Ads, Powerpoint design ideas, Windows Hello, etc.?
    • Cognitive Services: These are simple to use APIs that do complicated AI tasks like sentiment analysis, face and vision recognition, speech to text, intelligent search, etc.
    • .NET for Apache Spark: Did you know .NET for Apache Spark is almost twice as fast as PySpark in certain scenarios? Learn more.
    • Azure Machine Learning: It helps build and deploy machine learning models even for technical as well as not technical people with different backgrounds. Learn more.
    • TensorFlow: It is a library that allows users to showcase unpredictable computation as a graph of data flows. It leverages various optimization techniques to make the calculation of mathematical expressions easier and more performant. Learn more.
  • Cazton Microservices Consulting Microservices: Some members of our team started working on Docker as early as 2014 and Kubernetes as early as 2015. Today these are household names in tech and also the fastest growing microservices frameworks. Microservices, if used correctly, can drastically improve the deployment process, scale applications, scale development, enhance security and help create a robust system that works seamlessly in a multi-cloud world. However, if the microservices strategy isn’t robust, it can create a lot of problems too. We have helped enterprise clients on moving legacy systems (dating as far back to Classic ASP) and moved them to microservices. At the same time, we have also helped certain clients who may have been using microservices incorrectly. We have also helped clients who were incorrectly using microservices for projects that didn’t have the necessary complexity and scale requirements. Learn more.
    • Docker: Docker is the company that is on the forefront of driving the container movement. It is by far the only container platform provider to address every application across the hybrid cloud. Enterprise can now take advantage of true independence between applications and infrastructure offered by Docker to digitally transform themselves faster than ever before. They are no longer constrained with a limited tech stack or legacy applications. Docker creates a model for better collaboration and innovation between developers and the infrastructure division. Learn more.
    • Kubernetes: Google used Kubernetes internally for about 15 years of experience before finally open sourcing it. As we can imagine Google probably has the highest production workload given that Google.com and Youtube.com are the two top websites in the world currently (July, 2018). Kubernetes is an open-source system for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. It groups containers that make up an application into logical units for easy management and discovery. After making Kubernetes open source, Google has done a great job of incorporating these practices from the community. It was built way before Docker even existed so it’s container-agnostic. That means it works with Docker and can be used to make it work with other containers too. All major cloud platforms including AWS and Azure support it. Learn more.
    • Pivotal - Cloud Foundry: Cloud Foundry is the next generation middleware design that makes deployment, management, and continuous delivery of applications, containers, and functions much easier and faster. It is an open source, ready-to-use platform that allows companies to get up and running quickly in the cloud. Cloud Foundry is made available through various private cloud distributions as well as public cloud instances. It is supported by a broad community that contributes to the extensibility and versatility of this cloud platform. Pivotal’s Cloud Foundry is a distribution of the open source Cloud Foundry developed and maintained by Pivotal Software, Inc. Pivotal offers additional features and services and added more value to the standard Cloud Foundry framework.
  • Cazton Microsoft Success Story Desktop: With each new technology, there comes new ways to master it, optimize its performance, ease its integration with other technologies and maximize efficiency of the system.

WinForms and WPF help create applications on Windows. However, UWP enables development for any Windows 10 device - PC, Tablet, Phone, Xbox, HoloLens, Surface Hub, and Windows 10 IoT Core. Learn more.
  • Gaming: Unity is a game development platform that uses Microsoft .NET and C# to develop games on 25+ platforms including mobile, desktop, console, TV, VR, AR and the Web. It’s an extremely popular platform used for building 2D and 3D games. MonoGame is an open source game development platform built on .NET. It supports the C# and F# programming languages. It helps create games for all major mobile and desktop operating systems, as well as most modern consoles. CRYENGINE's CE# Framework empowers developers to develop games using .NET and the C# programming language.

    Our team has experts who have not only built games, but also have a great breadth of enterprise experience on Microsoft technologies.
  • IoT: One of the great benefits of UWP is it’s cross-platform reach. It extends the .NET platform to enable development for any Windows device, including IoT devices running Windows 10 IoT Core. This helps developers build apps on Raspberry Pi, MinnowBoard MAX, DragonBoard 410c, and other IoT devices. UWP provides simple APIs for your boards GPIO pins, plus a UI framework for writing responsive apps that support a number of screen sizes, and interaction models.
