Microsoft and space and time collaborate to bring blockchain data to Azure Marketplace

Microsoft and Space and Time have jointly revealed that developers can now easily integrate the Space and Time data warehouse directly from the Microsoft Azure Marketplace. Azure Marketplace is an online store that offers a wide range of applications and services for use on the Azure cloud computing platform. The one-click deployment enables customers to access, manage and perform analytics on blockchain-native data quickly and easily.

Microsoft is dedicated to assisting customer and partner business requirements, including Web3 scenarios and use cases, as a leader in intelligent computing and AI. In September 2022, Space and Time received funding from M12, which is Microsoft’s venture capital fund.

Developers can now use a trustless intermediary to quickly and easily integrate massive amounts of enterprise data into smart contracts and new use cases for indexed blockchain data due to the one-click rollout of Space and Time on the Azure Marketplace.

Kathleen Mitford, who holds the position of CVP of Global Industry Marketing at Microsoft, expressed that the company is strengthening growth across emerging markets, including blockchain and distributed data. She stated that Microsoft Azure and Space and Time would jointly provide developers with the necessary tools to construct the next generation of blockchain use cases.

Businesses can benefit from a decentralized data warehouse without redesigning their current infrastructure due to the integration, which enables them to build on the blockchain without sacrificing security or processing power.

A reliable set of services and tools are available to develop Web3 apps in this new era of ubiquitous computing due to the comprehensive Microsoft Azure cloud services and industry-leading identity and security capabilities.

Leading provider of Web3 data warehouses, Space and Time, combines off-chain datasets provided by customers with real-time data indexed from significant blockchains. Free real-time indexed blockchain data is preloaded into the Space and Time combined transactional and analytical (HTAP) data warehouse.

Customers can quickly integrate the Space and Time data warehouse with their current business infrastructure with the one-click deployment. Creating links between blockchain data and Azure compute is expected to unlock new potential use cases for blockchains based on tiers and decentralized application developers.
CEO and co-founder of Space and Time, Nate Holiday, has emphasized the growing importance of verifiable data across blockchains, enterprises and AI. He stated that their company offers businesses the ability to integrate blockchain data into their applications and operations, which is essential for customer expansion and responsible data management. Nate also mentioned that he is excited to expand their collaboration with Microsoft to connect enterprise computing resources with blockchain and AI advancements.
