In September 2026 Moberg attained its second Microsoft designation: Solutions Partner for Digital & App Innovation (Azure). Where Data & AI recognized our data practice, this one recognizes the other half of the company — the product engineering that designs, builds and runs cloud-native applications on Azure.
The second designation — for how we build software
Together, the two designations describe the whole of what we do: the platforms that hold a business's numbers, and the products a business runs on — built and operated to the same verified standard.
Earned, not granted
The same rules apply as for every Microsoft designation: a capability score measured across three categories, verified from Microsoft's own telemetry. The prerequisites are the achievement. For Digital & App Innovation, clearing the bar meant:
- Performance — Products shipped on Azure
- Net new customers running cloud-native applications we built — payment platforms, portals and consumer apps in daily production use.
- Skilling — Certified builders
- Microsoft certifications across development and architecture — the engineers behind a decade of .NET platforms, certified on the cloud they ship to.
- Customer success — Usage that compounds
- Deployments whose adoption grows after launch — 50M+ transactions in Straumur's first 18 months, a national BNPL platform run since 2013.
Warp and the accelerators carried this one
- Open source · Warp — our distributed job framework for .NET 10
- Warp is Moberg's open-source distributed job processing and message queue — pub/sub, orchestrated jobs and the transactional outbox pattern on plain PostgreSQL or SQL Server, no extra infrastructure. It's the engineering standard behind our product backends, in the open for anyone to inspect.
- Industry Accelerators — platforms that already know your industry
- The accelerators — one production-proven platform per industry, tailored to your workflows in weeks and live next quarter — are cloud-native Azure applications end to end. They are both the proof behind this designation and what it now accelerates for clients.
What this means for our clients and partners
With both designations in place, a client no longer has to choose between a data partner and a product partner. The platform holding your numbers and the application your customers touch can be designed together, by one team, against one architecture — which is where most of the integration cost in a digital programme actually sits.
It also changes what you can inspect before committing. Warp is open source, so the job processing under your backend can be read rather than taken on trust, and the accelerators are running platforms rather than reference diagrams. The starting point for a new build is something that already works in production in your industry.
And because the score is measured from Microsoft's own telemetry rather than self-declared, it says something specific: customers went live, usage grew afterwards, and the engineers hold current certifications on the cloud they ship to.
