The SDK features support for connecting to data sources including Cosmos DB and Azure Storage, deploying Azure resources programmatically, authenticating users, and much more. Alongside the SDK update, we are also making the <a href=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/go\/azure\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Azure Go Dev Center<\/a> available on our docs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With today\u2019s announcement, we are once again reinforcing our commitment to build an open cloud, supporting open source technologies such as Go and enabling our customers to innovate faster, using the tools they prefer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Why Go? In today&#8217;s digitally transformed world, developer and software efficiency have a major impact on project success. Cloud platforms like Microsoft Azure increase that efficiency by managing infrastructure and platforms on behalf of developers. Go also increases both developer and software efficiency through clear syntax, modern standard libraries, native compilation, and reliable concurrency primitives. By expanding Azure\u2019s support for Go we hope to enable our customers to capitalize on both simultaneously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"Go\" src=\"https:\/\/azure.microsoft.com\/en-us\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/dafee519-b05f-4706-a0d7-529833ab4cbd.webp\" alt=\"Go\" width=\"240\" height=\"240\"><br><em>Image credits: <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ashleymcnamara\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>@ashleymcnamara<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"azure-sdk-for-go\">Azure SDK for Go<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Developers can use the Azure SDK for Go to more quickly build cloud apps.
