London, UK - Ascent today announces it has earned the DevOps with GitHub on Microsoft Azure specialisation, validating its deep knowledge, extensive experience and proven success in implementing secure software development practices applying DevOps principles and using Azure and GitHub solutions.

The DevOps with GitHub on Microsoft Azure specialisation can only be earned by partners that meet stringent criteria around customer success and team skilling, as well as passing a third-party audit of their DevOps technical practices.

Our recognition as a Microsoft partner with the DevOps with GitHub on Microsoft Azure specialisation validates our ability to provide your customers with the skills and processes to practice DevOps and implement the technology across Azure and GitHub to accelerate digital transformation.

Murray Foxcroft, CTO at Ascent, is delighted with the outcome. “Advanced specialisations like this allow us to evidence our capabilities through proven customer implementations, certification and project work. They strengthen our relationship with Microsoft and demonstrate our technical credibility to customers.
