Persistent Systems announced it has entered into an agreement to acquire Data Glove.
Data Glove is a Microsoft Cloud Modernisation Services Partner with Gold level competencies in Azure Cloud Platform, data centre, application development and data analytics, application integration, as well as comprehensive intellectual property to accelerate Azure adoption.
“As our clients continue their digital acceleration, cloud modernisation and workforce productivity remain as critical as ever to sustaining competitive advantage and reducing costs. With the acquisition of Data Glove, we are forming a new Microsoft business unit to enhance our partnership and expand our expertise in Azure-based digital transformation, enabling us to capture a larger share of this high growth market. This acquisition also broadens our delivery capabilities with highly skilled talent,” said Sandeep Kalra, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Director, Persistent Systems.
Microsoft Azure cloud provides scalable, flexible infrastructure while its business applications and workplace offerings enable increased productivity and enhanced employee experience.
Building on Microsoft Azure’s impressive growth, these expanded capabilities will bolster Persistent’s existing partnership and serve as the foundation for a new dedicated Microsoft business unit at Persistent. In addition to client sales and service delivery, this newly formed unit will focus on Microsoft training and certifications, working closely with community colleges and regional universities to foster new talent.
