Microsoft Technologies

Full-stack Microsoft capability — .NET/C#, Azure cloud, Azure DevOps, Azure AI Foundry — for Australian Government.

Overview

GoSource delivers across the Microsoft technology stack as a core part of our cloud engineering practice. We work within and alongside an organisation’s existing Microsoft investment — building .NET applications on Azure, running CI/CD through Azure DevOps, integrating enterprise data with Azure Data Factory and Synapse, and delivering AI solutions on Azure AI Foundry. Azure for Australian Government, including Protected tenancies, is our standard operating environment.

Core Capabilities

.NET & C# Development

Our engineers have production experience with C#/.NET across web applications, backend services, and game development (Unity/C#). This sits within a broader polyglot engineering culture — our engineers work across multiple language ecosystems, which gives them the pattern recognition that comes from understanding how different platforms solve the same problems.

Azure Cloud Services

Azure is the primary cloud platform for the majority of our current government work. Our experience spans:

  • Compute: Container Apps, App Services, serverless functions
  • Data: Azure Data Factory, Synapse, Power BI
  • Integration: Azure API Management for governed API exposure
  • Identity & Security: Azure AD/Entra ID, RBAC, Key Vault, Azure Defender
  • Infrastructure as Code: Terraform, Azure Bicep

Azure DevOps

Our Azure DevOps experience goes beyond individual pipelines to department-wide platform engineering:

  • Department-wide CI/CD pipeline architectures with reusable Terraform modules
  • Multi-tenanted API Management platforms with centralised governance
  • Sprint planning, backlog management, and delivery tracking integrated with our agile methodology

Azure AI Foundry

We deliver AI-enabled solutions on Microsoft platforms as part of our broader agentic services capability:

  • Foundry — Solution design using Foundry projects, agents, and approved AI services
  • Azure OpenAI Service — Model access within governed environments
  • Copilot Studio — Conversational prototyping for proof-of-value engagements
  • Agent Orchestration — Foundry-native agents complemented by experience with Temporal.io, LangGraph, and LangChain

Policy Alignment

  • ACSC Essential Eight / ISM — Azure for Australian Government environments are our standard context. Security controls are embedded in delivery, not applied as a compliance step.
  • Australian Government Standard for API Integration — GoSource co-authored the first draft of this standard for the DTA. Our API practices on Azure are grounded in the same principles we helped establish.
