Executive summary
Components
Customers need to speed up the development
and delivery of software applications without huge
effort in establishing CI/CD processes with
various tools, especially on initial project stage.
Azure DevOps Services and Azure Kubernetes
Service could help solve such problem and allow
to manage all delivery process from one place.

“DevOps is the union of people,
process, and products to enable
continuous delivery of value to our end
users.”
- Donovan Brown
DevOps definition

Why is DevOps important?
• Our competition is already
doing this
• Increase velocity
• Reduce downtime
• Reduce human error

Microsoft proposal
Set of cloud-hosted DevOps services, that work for any
language targeting any platform:
• Plan your project with Agile tools
• Manage test plans from the web
• Version code using Git
• Deploy code using cross-platform CICD system
Azure
DevOps

What is Azure DevOps?
Plan, track, and discuss work
across your teams so that
you can deliver value to your
users faster.
CI/CD that works with any language,
platform, and cloud. Connect to GitHub
or any Git provider and deploy
continuously to any cloud.
Unlimited cloud-hosted private Git
repos for your project. Collaborative
pull requests, advanced file
management, and more.
The manual and exploratory
testing toolkit to ship with
confidence.
Create, host, and share packages
with your team. Add artifacts to your
CI/CD pipelines with a single click.
Built by the community – access
extensions from Slack to
SonarCloud to 1,000 other amazing
things.

The Concept of Pipelines in DevOps
• A pipeline enables a constant flow of changes into production via an
automated software production line
• Pipelines create a repeatable, reliable and incrementally improving
process for taking software from concept to customer
• Pipelines require infrastructure, this infrastructure will have a direct
impact on the effectiveness of the pipeline

Pipeline flow

Azure DevOps Pipelines
• Azure Pipelines is a cloud service that you can use to automatically build
and test your code project and make it available to other users
• Works great with Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery
• Work with any language or platform - Python, Java, PHP, Ruby, C#, and Go
• Deploy to different types of targets at the same time
• Integrate with Azure deployments - container registries, virtual machines, Azure
services, or any on-premises or cloud target (Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, or
Amazon cloud services)
• Build on Windows, Linux, or Mac machines
• Integrate with GitHub
• Work with open-source projects

Azure Pipelines and Visual Designer
• Configure your pipelines with the Visual Designer
• Create and configure your build and release pipelines
• Push your code to your version control repository
• The build creates an artifact that's used by the rest of your pipeline
• Your code is now updated, built, tested, and packaged

Build definition as code
Why store build definitions in YAML?
• Versioning
• Keeping Build Definitions with Code
• Branching
• Peer Review
• Reuse
• Linting
• Abstraction and Declarative Instruction
The concept of a build definition as code as it relates to a build server for continuous
integration means using an actual declarative language to define how your build should
works instead of using a web user interface to define your build steps. You can use a
general purpose programming language, a domain specific language or some other
declarative construct to indicate how your build your system.

Azure Pipelines and YAML
• Configure your pipelines in a YAML file that exists alongside your code
• Configure Azure Pipelines to use your Git repo
• Edit your azure-pipelines.yml file to define your build
• Push your code to your version control repository
• Your code is now updated, built, tested, and packaged

Pipeline Structure
• Pipeline – one or more stages that describe a CI/CD process
• Stage – collection of related jobs
• Job – collection of steps run by an agent on a server
• Step – linear sequence of operations that make up a job
• Tasks – building blocks of a pipeline
Azure Pipelines supports 4 kinds of templates
• Stage
• Job
• Step
• Variable
