Their mission is to get C # blockchain technologies in front of corporate customers and they are looking forward to utilizing the marketing and development resources that Microsoft delivers to their certified partners. Azure Marketplace gives app and service providers access to 120.000 business customers and 800.000 ecosystem partners in 190 countries.

With over 1 million active users, the marketplace generates over 100.000 executives to partners every month - Microsoft ISV Program

This partnership comes in a critical and also exciting time for Stratis; The services that make up the core Stratis Platform, including smart contracts, side chains and the company's informed Stratis DLT will be released in the coming months.
