Microsoft Azure customers worldwide can now gain access to Roboflow to take advantage of the end-to-end computer vision platform to give their software the sense of sight.

We’re pleased to share that Roboflow is now available in the Microsoft Azure Marketplace, an online store providing applications and services for use on Azure. Roboflow customers that use Roboflow and Azure together have an even easier way to incorporate the two infrastructure tools.

Roboflow in The Azure Marketplace

The Azure Marketplace is an online market for buying and selling cloud solutions certified to run on Azure. The Azure Marketplace helps connect companies seeking innovative, cloud-based solutions with partners who have developed solutions that are ready to use.

“Roboflow makes using computer vision easy for developers. We do this by simplifying data collection, data annotation, model training, and model deployment with APIs and developer tools.”

Roboflow makes using computer vision easy for developers. Through providing tools for dataset collection, management, annotation, model training, model deployment, and active learning, Roboflow accelerates the rate at which organizations can develop and deploy state-of-the-art machine learning applications into production.

By being welcomed to the Azure marketplace, Microsoft is validating what existing customers using Azure and Roboflow together have found with accelerated machine learning workflows. The availability of Roboflow in the Microsoft Azure Marketplace enables us to offer the product to a wider range of organizations.

Jake Zborowski, General Manager, Microsoft Azure Platform at Microsoft Corp. said, “We’re pleased to welcome Roboflow to the Microsoft Azure Marketplace, which gives our partners great exposure to cloud customers around the globe. Azure Marketplace offers world-class quality experiences from global trusted partners with solutions tested to work seamlessly with Azure.”

For example, existing customers are leveraging petabytes of stored images and video on Azure Blob storage with Roboflow’s image processing tools to create computer vision applications that monitor security footage, synthesize drone imagery, and synthesize health data.

Others are using Azure’s device management capabilities with Roboflow’s dataset management tooling to rapidly deploy and improve production applications. Azure customers have the ability to annotate, pre-process, and augment their image data with Roboflow, then export their processed dataset in a number of different formats such as COCO, Pascal VOC and YOLO to name a few. They can then use this dataset in their current computer vision pipelines. Existing users of Microsoft Azure Custom Vision can also take advantage of Roboflow's data preparation pipeline by exporting their data directly to Microsoft Azure Custom Vision for training. Follow our guided tutorial to see how to use Microsoft Azure Custom Vision with Roboflow.
