My work place has a software integration with an Australian government agency, that has a specific requirement that our software and any version of it, must reside wholly geographically within Australia.

We currently use Azure DevOps previously known as TFS (Team Foundation Services) and I'm fairly certain it's hosted in the States which violates their terms. And I'd assume so too is GitHub. We only a 4 man team and we're not doing pipelines or anything else, just version control and so far it's been free. I'd prefer to stick with DevOps so I don't have to re-train the old dudes, who happen to be the business owners.

Based on the information provided here, you can choose to have your Azure DevOps instance and data located in Australia (Australia is one of the supported geographies). You can specify the region while creating your organization or by raising a support ticket later on.

The United States will host the Games for the fifth time with the LA 2028 Olympics. The United Kingdom has been a three-time host. France will also stage the Summer Games for the third time at the Paris 2024 Olympics.

The Melbourne 1956 edition, officially known as the Games of the XVI Olympiad, was held from November 22 to December 8. The city won the right to host the 1956 Olympic Games by one vote over Buenos Aires.

The Melbourne Games was also an edition of many firsts with several groundbreaking initiatives. It was the first Summer Games held outside of Europe and North America and played a huge role in globalising the Olympic movement.

One of the most enduring legacies of Melbourne 1956 was the introduction of a heartwarming gesture at the closing ceremony. All athletes walked together as one, embodying the core principles of the Olympic spirit.

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) also had great political success in managing to bring together the two Germanys (East and West) within a combined team (EUA) competing under a black, red and yellow flag with the Olympic rings.

While only a few had the luxury of television sets when Australia hosted the Melbourne Games in 1956, the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games, officially the Games of the XXVII Olympiad, were watched by billions around the world.

Athletes from two Korean countries marched together during the Opening Ceremony wearing the same uniform. It was the first time the athletes from these two countries marched together at the Olympic Games.

The Sydney Games were held from September 15 to October 1 with 10,651 athletes (4,069 women, 6,582 men) from 199 countries taking part in 300 medal events. Additionally, four individual Olympic athletes from East Timor also competed in the Games.

The Queensland capital will stage the Olympic Games from July 23 to August 8, 2032, and the Paralympic Games from August 24 to September 5, 2032. The Brisbane Organising Committee for the 2032 Olympics has already identified 37 world-class venues for the Games.

The 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup was the ninth edition of the FIFA Women's World Cup, the quadrennial international women's football championship contested by women's national teams and organised by FIFA. The tournament, which took place from 20 July to 20 August 2023, was jointly hosted by Australia and New Zealand.[2][3][4] It was the first FIFA Women's World Cup with more than one host nation, as well as the first World Cup to be held across multiple confederations, as Australia is in the Asian confederation, while New Zealand is in the Oceanian confederation. It was also the first Women's World Cup to be held in the Southern Hemisphere.[5]

This tournament was the first to feature an expanded format of 32 teams from the previous 24, replicating the format used for the men's World Cup from 1998 to 2022.[2] The opening match was won by co-host New Zealand, beating Norway at Eden Park in Auckland on 20 July 2023 and achieving their first Women's World Cup victory.[6]

Of the eight teams making their first appearance, Morocco were the only one to advance to the round of 16 (where they lost to France; coincidentally, the result of this fixture was similar to the men's World Cup in Qatar, where France defeated Morocco in the semi-final). The United States were the two-time defending champions,[13] but were eliminated in the round of 16 by Sweden, the first time the team had not made the semi-finals at the tournament, and the first time the defending champions failed to progress to the quarter-finals.[14] It also marks the first time that United States was not among the top three finalist in the history of FIFA Women's World Cup.

The opening match of the tournament, between co-host New Zealand and Norway, was played on 20 July 2023 at Eden Park. The inaugural match played in Australia, was between Australia playing against the Republic of Ireland on the same day at Stadium Australia, after a venue change due to strong ticketing demand.[27]

At previous tournaments, FIFA paid total prize money to the national associations, but for the 2023 Women's World Cup it was set to award prize payments directly to players as well as the associations. This came as a result of reports in the women's game that a number of national associations were withholding competition prize money from players and/or not paying them at all.[28] In March 2023, global player union FIFPRO sent a letter signed by players from around the world to FIFA, challenging FIFA to make prize money in the men's and women's tournaments equal and to ensure at least 30% of prize money in the women's tournament made it to the players. While FIFA did not match the prize money of the men's tournament, it did significantly increase it, with more than half set to be paid to players directly.[29]

Just before the tournament, FIFA president Gianni Infantino announced that the player payments would still be paid to the associations, and that FIFA planned to audit the associations to make sure the money got to the players. Football administrator Lise Klaveness expressed concern over what she felt sounded like reneging on the promise, both for the players and for FIFA's credibility.[30] During the tournament, Infantino admitted that FIFA had simply made recommendations to associations on how much to pay players, and they could not reasonably check.[31]

Bidding began for the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup on 19 February 2019.[32] Member associations interested in hosting the tournament had to submit a declaration of interest by 15 March, and provide the completed bidding registration by 16 April. However, FIFA revised the bidding timeline as the tournament expanded to 32 teams on 31 July.[33] Other member associations interested in hosting the tournament then had until 16 August to submit a declaration of interest, while the completed bidding registration of new member associations and re-confirmation of prior bidders was due by 2 September.[34]

Nine countries initially indicated interest in hosting the events: Argentina, Australia, Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Japan, South Korea (with interest in a joint bid with North Korea), New Zealand and South Africa.[35] Belgium expressed interest in hosting the tournament following the new deadline but later dropped out, as did Bolivia, in September 2019.[36][37] Australia and New Zealand later announced they would merge their bids in a joint submission.[38] Brazil, Colombia, and Japan joined them in submitting their bid books to FIFA by 13 December.[39] However, both Brazil and Japan later withdrew their bids in June 2020 before the final voting.[40][41]

On 25 June 2020, Australia and New Zealand won the bid to host the Women's World Cup.[42] The decision came after a vote by the FIFA Council, with the winning bid earning 22 votes, while Colombia earned 13.[43] Neither country had previously hosted a senior FIFA tournament. This was the first Women's World Cup to be hosted in multiple countries, and only the second World Cup tournament to do so, following the 2002 FIFA World Cup, held in Japan and South Korea. It was also the first FIFA Women's World Cup to be held in the Southern Hemisphere, the first senior FIFA tournament to be held in Oceania, and the first FIFA tournament to be hosted across multiple confederations (with Australia in the AFC and New Zealand in the OFC). Australia became the second association from the AFC to host the Women's World Cup, after China in both 1991 and 2007.[44]

In July 2019, Infantino proposed an expansion of the Women's World Cup from 24 to 32 teams, starting with the 2023 edition, and doubling the tournament's prize money.[45] The proposal came following the success of the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup and the prior edition of the tournament in 2015, which after increasing from 16 to 24 teams set an attendance record for all FIFA competitions besides the men's FIFA World Cup.[46] Expanding the tournament to allow eight additional participating teams gave more member associations a greater opportunity to qualify for the final tournament. This fostered the growing reach and professionalisation of the women's game.[47]

The astounding success of this year's FIFA Women's World Cup in France made it very clear that this is the time to keep the momentum going and take concrete steps to foster the growth of women's football. I am glad to see this proposal becoming a reality.

The tournament opened with a group stage consisting of eight groups of four teams, with the top two teams progressing from each group to a knockout tournament featuring 16 teams. The number of games played overall increased from 52 to 64. The tournament replicated the format of the men's FIFA World Cup used between 1998 and 2022. For the first time since the 2002 FIFA World Cup, both qualified teams from each group were kept on the same side of the draw in the knockout stage, meaning they could potentially meet again in the semi-final. This was to minimise travel between Australia and New Zealand and to ensure both host nations remained in their own country up to the semi-finals should they qualify.[48]
