Thoughtworks helps enterprises modernize legacy applications and data estates, then turn Microsoft capabilities into working software that teams can run, govern and improve.
Microsoft provides the cloud, data and AI platform. Thoughtworks brings the product thinking, complex-systems engineering and delivery discipline to make it work in the real world — including legacy-heavy, data-intensive and highly regulated environments.
As a Microsoft Enterprise Systems Integrator Partner, we help customers move from a stalled ambition or pilot to a measurable result.

Legacy applications, architecture and integration constraints can slow every AI plan. Thoughtworks combines AI-assisted discovery, product thinking and incremental engineering to modernize critical workloads on Azure without waiting for a high-risk, big-bang replacement. We help teams understand what their systems do, decide what should change and deliver the next useful capability in production.
Data products were once designed mainly for people looking at dashboards. Now they may also need to answer questions for people and agents. Thoughtworks helps organizations use Microsoft Fabric and Purview to create governed data products with clear ownership, business meaning, documentation, quality controls and access policies. The goal is to make data useful in the work that matters, from analysis and automation to AI.
Production AI needs reliable inputs, clear product ownership, secure architecture, evaluation, observability, operating controls and people who know how to use it in their work.
Thoughtworks helps teams move from a promising proof of concept to production software that can be governed, measured and improved. We connect the system, data, engineering and adoption decisions that determine whether AI works after the demo.
Microsoft provides the platform. Thoughtworks makes the whole system work. We help customers connect five conditions for lasting value:
Engineering platforms that reduce friction without weakening governance.
AI capabilities that are evaluated, operated and improved in production.
Adoption plans that fit real workflows, roles and incentives.
Data products work when people can find them, understand them, trust them and use them.
This whitepaper, created by Thoughtworks, shares practical lessons and reference patterns for designing, building and governing data products with Microsoft Fabric and Purview.
The right Microsoft capability is the one people can use in the work that matters.
We connect technology choices to user needs, operating models and measurable outcomes so new capabilities become part of how the organization runs.
Thoughtworks co-founded the Green Software Foundation with Microsoft. We help teams make sustainability part of architecture, engineering and product decisions — not a report that arrives after delivery.
Some eligible Azure, data and AI initiatives may qualify for Microsoft funding. Eligibility, scope and amount depend on the workload, program and customer situation.
We can help identify a suitable starting point, shape the business case and work with Microsoft on the qualification process.
Zones partnered with Thoughtworks to build a production-grade agentic AI workflow on Microsoft Azure. The workflow reads customer-specific operating procedures, recommends the right action for each order and keeps a customer success manager in control of every decision.
The result is a reusable pattern for turning knowledge that once lived in documents and people’s heads into governed, machine-readable workflows that can scale.
Our work with Microsoft goes beyond delivery, it's a shared commitment to shaping what AI-powered enterprises can become. From agentic AI frameworks and fraud prevention to media reinvention, explore the research, reports, and conversations we're building together.
If your legacy estate is slowing down your AI plans, or your data is not ready for real-time decisions, start with the constraint, not the cloud service.
It is a Microsoft partner designation reserved as recognition for a select group of global partners trusted to deliver complex transformations on the Azure Cloud.
We look beyond the model. We address the systems, data, architecture, evaluation, governance, operating model and adoption conditions that determine whether an AI capability can run safely and deliver value in real workflows.
We start by understanding the behavior and constraints of the system, then choose an incremental path that reduces risk while creating the next useful capability. The approach may include AI-assisted discovery, architecture, product engineering, data modernization and staged migration.
We treat data as a product with users, owners, quality expectations, documentation, semantics and a lifecycle. Microsoft Fabric and Purview provide important platform capabilities; Thoughtworks helps teams design the product model, operating model and delivery practices around them.
It is a fixed-price, outcome-based way to test a product idea before committing to a larger program: a concept in three days, a working prototype in three weeks and an MVP in three months.
It can give developers a simpler path to build, deploy and operate software while the platform supplies reusable infrastructure, guardrails and operational controls. Thoughtworks focuses on the product and operating model around the platform, not only the cluster configuration.
Some Azure, data and AI initiatives may qualify. Eligibility, amount and scope depend on the workload and Microsoft program. We can help assess fit and work with Microsoft on the qualification process. Funding is not guaranteed.
