i-flex wins Microsoft .NET Solution of the Year award

BANGALORE: i-flex Solutions Limited has won the Microsoft .NET Solution of
the Year award for the Asia Pacific region for "ComEX", its
Commodities Exchange solution.

The award was presented to i-flex at the Microsoft Asia Fusion event in Kuala
Lumpur where about 100 Microsoft solution partners showcased their solutions
across eight categories. The final selection was made from over 105 entries
across these categories.

i-flex is already an implementation partner for Microsoft’s BizTalk servers
in the financial applications space, and is one of only six Indian companies
across five verticals to be chosen by Microsoft for the BizTalk server
implementation.

The company has developed a solution code named "ComEX", based on
the .NET platform, as a proof of concept application for Commodities Exchanges.
The solution enables buyers and sellers of commodities to transact online in a
highly secure, scalable and available environment using the .NET platform.

Commodities Exchanges can use the i-flex solution to create or extend
services for commodities trading. "This award recognizes i-flex’s skill
sets in financial application development on the Microsoft .NET platform. The
.NET platform was an obvious choice for "ComEX" as it provides support
across multiple devices, scalability based on open standards and a simple
programming model," said N R K Raman, head -- IT Services division, i-flex
Solutions Limited. "We are now in the process of assisting some of our
existing clients in planning and migrating existing and new applications to ‘Web
services’ using the .NET platform," he added.
