Getting an application onto Azure is only the first milestone. Keeping it secure, automated, and running reliably once it's live — especially as more AI and data workloads shift onto containerised infrastructure — is where most modernisation efforts are actually judged. Microsoft has now independently verified that Getronics meets that bar.

Getronics has passed Microsoft's Kubernetes on Azure Specialisation audit – now known as the App Modernization on Microsoft Azure Specialisation. This confirms our ability to help organisations modernise applications on Azure at enterprise scale. 

Quote card featuring Premnath Anand, Director of Cloud Services at Getronics: 'Modernisation doesn't end when an application reaches Azure. It's about how reliably you run and evolve it at scale. This specialisation validates our engineering and operational capabilities to help customers build for what comes next

For clients, this means a partner who can take applications from legacy environments into cloud-native architecture built on Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), with the security, automation, and DevOps practices to run it reliably day to day. Our role goes beyond migration. We help clients modernise, operate and continuously evolve their applications on Azure. 

As AI, data platforms and cloud-native applications increasingly depend on containerised architectures, this capability also supports the next stage of transformation. Clients can build on Azure with an architecture designed for modern workloads, rather than simply moving existing applications to the cloud. 

The specialisation reflects Getronics’ ability to combine deep technical expertise with the governance, engineering discipline and operational maturity required to modernise and run applications at enterprise scale. The audit identified no mandatory remediation actions and recognised our team’s technical knowledge, operational maturity, processes and customer delivery practices. This provides clients with confidence that their application modernisation journey is backed by proven capabilities across architecture, security, automation, DevOps and day-to-day operations.
