DevOps on Azure

Automate builds and deployments.

📖 Key ideas

  1. Azure DevOps offers Repos, Boards, Pipelines, Artifacts and Test Plans.
  2. GitHub Actions integrates tightly with Azure too.
  3. Pipelines build, test and deploy code automatically.
  4. Bicep/ARM/Terraform deploy infrastructure as code.
  5. Environments with approvals protect production.
💡 Real-life example: Azure Pipelines is a factory conveyor: code goes in, tested and deployed apps come out.
