Local startup Whizpace's IoT solution picked for Microsoft platform

A TECHNOLOGY solution by Singapore-based startup Whizpace has been certified by Microsoft and inducted into the Microsoft Azure Certified for Internet of Things (IoT) programme, Whizpace said on Friday.

Whizpace was the first Singapore company to join the Microsoft ScaleUp programme in 2019, which provided access to technology, mentorship and other support to help it explore emerging technologies and tap newer markets. As part of the programme's outcomes, Whizpace's products were added to the Microsoft Azure Certified for IoT global database of IoT solutions that have been pre-tested and verified to work with Azure cloud services.

Being certified by the Microsoft programme will significantly reduce time-to-market for customers adopting its solution, as it saves them time in selecting and connecting the right devices and platforms that will work together, Whizpace said.
