Web3 infrastructure provider Ankr’s (ANKR) new app launched on Feb. 21 on Azure Marketplace in partnership with tech giant Microsoft.
The application is a node hosting solution that integrates both companies’ technologies. Ankr’s app uses Azure’s routing solutions to routeย Remote Procedure Calls (RPC) to the best-suited node, thereby increasing scalability and optimization.
Microsoft’s General Manager at AI & Emerging Technologies, Rashmi Misra, commented on the partnership and stated:
โMicrosoftโs mission is to empower every person and every organization on the planet to achieve more.
Many developers and organizations are exploring how Web3 can help solve real-world business challenges, and our partnership with Ankr will enable them to access blockchain data in a reliable, scalable, and secure way,โ
