Our Custom Azure and SharePoint Development Services
Custom Azure Application Development
We build cloud-native apps, web applications, mobile back ends, and SaaS platforms on Azure services such as Azure App Service and Azure Functions.
Each application is engineered for your specific business requirements rather than forced into a generic template and architected as scalable cloud solutions that scale resources on demand while keeping infrastructure management to a minimum through fully managed and serverless computing services.
- Web and mobile application development
- Enterprise and line-of-business software
- SaaS platforms on Azure App Service and Azure Functions
- Serverless and microservices with Azure Kubernetes Service and Logic Apps
- Event-driven architectures for elastic scale and business agility
Cloud Migration and Modernization
Legacy applications and databases hold many businesses back.
Our team moves those workloads to the Azure cloud, refactors monolithic systems into cloud-native architectures, and modernizes cloud infrastructure for scalability and cost efficiency.
With a zero-data-loss record across more than 200 migrations, we treat your data integrity as the non-negotiable baseline of every digital transformation, delivering a smooth transition without disruption to live web applications.

SharePoint Framework Development and Integration
SPFx is Microsoft’s recommended development model for customizing SharePoint and connecting it to the wider Microsoft 365 ecosystem.
We build reusable, responsive web parts using React and TypeScript; extend sites with application customizers, field customizers, and command sets; and connect SharePoint to Teams, Power Apps, Power Automate, and Microsoft Graph for seamless integration.
Older environments are modernized by migrating classic web parts to SPFx and converting InfoPath forms to Power Apps.
- Custom web parts for directories, KPI dashboards, and document management
- Application Customizers, Field Customizers, and Command Sets
- Microsoft Teams, Graph, and Power Platform integration
- Migration of classic web parts and InfoPath forms
- Enterprise apps such as HR portals and approval workflows
Cloud Security, Compliance, and Governance
Regulated and security-conscious organizations need controls built in from day one.
We implement identity and access management, security monitoring, and governance frameworks that satisfy compliance requirements, including experience with sensitive environments such as GCC High.
Whether you run on Azure Virtual Machines, fully managed services, or a hybrid approach across cloud and on-premises, secure client-side SPFx architecture and Azure AD integration keep your cloud services aligned with Microsoft best practices and your internal IT standards.
- Identity and access management with Azure AD
- Security monitoring and threat detection

Custom Azure Development Engineered for Real Business Impact
Gartner forecasts worldwide end-user spending on public cloud services to surpass $720 billion in 2025, as organizations move workloads off aging infrastructure and toward scalable, consumption-based platforms.
For businesses still maintaining on-premises servers or brittle legacy code, custom Azure development offers a direct path to high availability, disaster recovery, and pay-for-what-you-use economics, moving a scoped problem to production-ready Azure cloud services in weeks rather than quarters.
As a Microsoft consulting firm operating since 2006, ESW structures every Azure project around outcomes you can measure.
Our Azure developers identify which workloads carry the highest operational cost and where modernization delivers the most immediate return, then build on a proven stack spanning Azure App Service, Functions, Azure Kubernetes Service, Azure SQL Database, and Azure AI services.
Nearly two decades of Microsoft expertise mean every application we deliver is engineered for real-world performance and designed to scale with your business goals.
Challenges We Solve With Azure and SPFx
Most organizations come to ESW with a specific pain point, whether that is an aging application that cannot scale, a SharePoint intranet stuck on unsupported customizations, or data trapped across disconnected systems.
Custom Azure and SharePoint Framework development addresses these challenges directly, and our consultants have delivered targeted solutions across manufacturing, finance, healthcare, and the public sector.
- Legacy applications that cannot scale or integrate
- Unsupported SharePoint customizations blocking upgrades
- InfoPath forms and classic workflows nearing end of life
- Data siloed across systems with no unified reporting
- Manual processes that should be automated end-to-end
- Compliance gaps in regulated or high-trust environments
How We Approach Complex Azure and SPFx Engagements
Hard problems also demand judgment about what not to build. Our consultants sequence delivery so the business keeps running throughout, which is why enterprises with the longest, most intricate roadmaps, including Fortune 500 firms, trust ESW with work that other teams treat as too risky to take on.
Engineering for Distributed Systems
On the Azure side, depth means designing for distributed state and resilience, not just functionality.
We model how services behave under load and plan for failure long before deployment.
- Idempotency and retry logic for event-driven Azure Functions flows
- Load modeling across AKS, Azure SQL Database, and Service Bus
- CI/CD pipelines that ship safely across multiple environments
- High availability and disaster recovery designed in from the start
Untangling Legacy SharePoint Complexity
On the SharePoint side, complexity often lives in the migration itself, where years of customizations and permissions have to be reconciled without losing a single record.
- Reconciling classic customizations during SPFx modernization
- Untangling permission inheritance across thousands of sites
- Rebuilding deprecated workflows in SPFx and Power Automate
- Mapping dependencies to decide what to retire and what to preserve

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What are custom Azure development services?
Custom Azure development services cover designing, building, deploying, and managing cloud-native applications and infrastructure on Microsoft Azure, tailored to your specific business requirements instead of relying on off-the-shelf software. This typically includes custom application development, cloud migration, serverless computing and microservices builds, data and analytics platforms, and Azure AI solutions, all delivered with security and compliance built in.
What is SharePoint Framework (SPFx) development?
SPFx is Microsoft’s recommended development model for customizing modern SharePoint and integrating it with the broader Microsoft 365 ecosystem. It is used to build secure, responsive, fully supported web parts and extensions, commonly with React and TypeScript, that deliver business-specific functionality such as KPI dashboards, employee directories, and document management interfaces while remaining easy to maintain and upgrade.
Why move legacy applications to Azure?
Migrating to the Azure cloud delivers scalability on demand, high availability, disaster recovery, and reduced infrastructure management through fully managed platforms and serverless services. With Gartner forecasting public cloud spending to exceed $720 billion in 2025, the move also aligns your business with where the wider market is investing, while seamless integration with Microsoft 365 and Dynamics 365 keeps your tools connected rather than fragmented.
How does SPFx compare to older SharePoint customizations?
SPFx replaces unsupported, legacy customizations with a secure client-side architecture that Microsoft fully supports. It is responsive and mobile-friendly, integrates seamlessly with Microsoft 365, and is far easier to maintain and upgrade than classic approaches. Because SPFx aligns with Microsoft’s cloud-first strategy, it has become the standard for modern SharePoint development and helps future-proof your investment against platform changes.
Can Azure and SharePoint solutions connect to our existing systems?
Yes. We connect Azure applications and SPFx solutions to Microsoft 365, Dynamics 365, SQL Server, Microsoft Graph, Power Apps, Power Automate, and external business systems through APIs and custom connectors. This creates a unified digital workplace where data flows across your stack instead of sitting in isolated tools, eliminating manual handoffs and duplicate entry.
Can ESW support regulated or high-security environments?
Yes. We implement identity and access management, security monitoring, and governance and compliance frameworks for regulated industries, including experience with GCC High environments and SharePoint migrations that demand strict data handling. Our zero-data-loss record across more than 200 migrations reflects the level of care we apply to sensitive and compliance-bound projects.
How long does a custom Azure or SPFx project take?
Timelines depend on complexity. A focused SPFx web part or a single application modernization can be completed in a few weeks, while a multi-system Azure migration or a data and analytics platform may take several months. ESW provides realistic timelines during the discovery phase so you can plan and budget with confidence from the start.
How does ESW handle Power Platform governance and security?
ESW establishes governance frameworks that cover security roles, data loss prevention policies, environment strategies, and licensing controls. This ensures your power platform solutions remain compliant, cost-efficient, and aligned with your organization’s IT standards from day one, with clear ownership and controls that scale as your usage grows.
