RICHMOND, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Apex Systems, a leading global technology services firm, and ASGN brand (NYSE: ASGN), today announced its availability in the Microsoft Azure Marketplace , an online store providing applications and services for use on Azure. Apex customers can now take advantage of the productive and trusted Azure cloud platform, with streamlined deployment and management.

Apex's debut offering in the Marketplace was created specifically for developers and other IT professionals and offers the Company a unique opportunity to accelerate growth, increase brand awareness, and build new client relationships across the commercial consulting marketplace.

Although technology-agnostic, many of Apex's growing consulting client base use Microsoft solutions to simplify and streamline their enterprise workloads. One of these solutions is Microsoft Fabric, an AI-powered analytics platform that Apex has been testing in its Innovation Lab across a diverse team of cloud, data, and AI professionals for the past twelve months.

Upon completion of this testing, Apex is excited to officially offer a workshop on Microsoft Fabric in the Azure Marketplace. This workshop is led by the Company's Chief Solutions Director of Data and AI, Zac Guidone, along with practice architects. As a certified Microsoft Data and AI Solutions Partner, Apex is proud to offer this workshop to explore Fabric's capabilities, value, and architecture.

"Microsoft Fabric is the next step forward in enabling business-driven and domain-owned enterprise data analytics capabilities," Guidone explained. "By offering our services in the Microsoft Azure Marketplace, we are making it easier for current and prospective clients to access our solutions and integrate them into their existing Azure environments."

Apex's Innovation Lab assessed multiple platforms using commonly requested data science proof-of-concept use cases – including image recognition and forecasting. The solutions were compared using 30 different feature categories, encompassing more than 100 functions that support enterprise data and AI workloads from data management and enterprise analytics to data science, machine learning, and platform monitoring and operations. The results displayed that not only is Fabric an ideal AI-analytics platform for its client base, but that there are many other interesting offerings available today that can serve as content for future online workshops.

Jeff Schmalbach, Chief Consulting Officer of Apex Systems, expressed his excitement about the Company's debut in the Marketplace. "As we continue to grow our commercial IT consulting practice, our entrance into the Microsoft Azure Marketplace signals steps in providing clients with innovative data, AI, and cloud solutions. Apex Systems partners with leading technology companies across the globe, who trust and rely upon our solutions expertise to accelerate digital transformation. This current listing is just the beginning, and we look forward to introducing additional Azure Marketplace offerings, including PowerApps, Data Security, and more, in the near future."

Jake Zborowski, General Manager, Microsoft Azure Platform at Microsoft Corp. said, "We're pleased to welcome Apex Systems to the Microsoft Azure Marketplace, which gives our partners great exposure to cloud customers around the globe. Azure Marketplace offers world-class quality experiences from global trusted partners with solutions tested to work seamlessly with Azure."
