Azure Government developer guide

  • Artikel

Azure Government is a separate instance of the Microsoft Azure service. It addresses the security and compliance needs of United States federal agencies, state and local governments, and their solution providers. Azure Government enforces physical isolation from non-US government infrastructure and relies on screened US personnel for operations.

Microsoft provides various tools to help you create and deploy cloud applications on global Azure and Azure Government.

When you create and deploy applications on Azure Government, you need to know the key differences between Azure Government and global Azure. The specific areas to understand are:

  • Setting up and configuring your programming environment
  • Configuring endpoints
  • Writing applications
  • Deploying applications as services to Azure Government

The information in this document summarizes the differences between the two cloud environments. It supplements the information that's available through the following sources:

This content is intended for Microsoft partners and developers who are deploying to Azure Government.

Guidance for developers

Most of the currently available technical content assumes that applications are being developed on global Azure rather than on Azure Government. For this reason, it’s important to be aware of two key differences in applications that you develop for hosting in Azure Government.

  • Certain services and features that are in specific regions of global Azure might not be available in Azure Government.
  • Feature configurations in Azure Government might differ from those in global Azure.

Therefore, it's important to review your sample code and configurations to ensure that you are building within the Azure Government cloud services environment.
