Editor's Notes
- #4: DevOps is the union of people, process and products to enable the continuous delivery of value to your end customers – commonly heard in talks by Microsoft’s Donovan Brown
- #5: Who has heard of the “Accelerate: State of DevOps” report? What about DORA (DevOps Research and Assessment)? Based on comparison of the Elite group against Low performers (as defined within the 2018 Accelerate: State of DevOps report) If you haven’t read the book Accelerate, I highly recommend it!
- #6: Azure DevOps has had multiple names in the past. We now have Azure DevOps Server for private data centers (e.g. on-prem) and Azure DevOps Services if you prefer to let Azure manage your (cloud-hosted) Azure DevOps services. Think of Azure DevOps as an overall “umbrella” term for all the various services available. Similar to how Microsoft Office is an umbrella term for Microsoft Word, Microsoft PowerPoint and so on.
- #7: So, we’ve just run through our overall solution and how this addresses all four areas that enable you to innovate at scale, and deliver with confidence. We looked at how you can use: Visual Studio and Visual Studio code to maximize developer efficiency GitHub to accelerate collaboration and open source development practices Azure DevOps to accelerate delivery of your products and Azure Security & Management services to ensure your products operate reliably, scale and remain secure
- #8: Azure DevOps does not require an Azure subscription for use. That said, some billing is managed through Azure. Azure DevOps works great with Microsoft technologies such as .NET, .NET Core and Windows. It also works great with Java, PHP, Python, Objective-C and so on as well as Linux and MacOS. Azure DevOps provides a first class experience when working with Azure. It also works great with AWS and GCP. In fact, it also works great with private cloud. Azure DevOps in conjunction with GitHub provides an amazing OSS experience.
- #9: Azure DevOps is composed of these five primary services.
- #13: It’s more than just a source code repository! Code reviews, branch policies, build validation, history, etc.
- #16: Provides a consistent, single UI for cross-platform builds – e.g. across Windows, Linux and macOS
- #19: Pipelines have come a long way since Microsoft acquired InCycle’s InRelease back in 2013!
- #21: The ability to essentially cache public registries is huge for an enterprise!
- #28: While we’ve covered a lot of features in Azure DevOps, there are other cool features that we haven’t touched on. Let’s take a look at some of them now.
- #30: Microsoft acquired GitHub in 2018 for $7.5 billion in Microsoft stock (https://news.microsoft.com/2018/06/04/microsoft-to-acquire-github-for-7-5-billion/) GitHub has a huge community of developers using it today. Microsoft is working hard to provide 1st-party integration between GitHub and various Azure DevOps services such as pipelines and work items
- #31: There are many other examples…
- #32: So… is Azure DevOps scalable? Why, yes, yes it is! ;-)
- #33: Free for OSS! Free for the first five users (for non-OSS/private use) Pay for what you need after that!
- #34: You can search Microsoft Customer Stories to find lots of examples of companies making use of Azure DevOps.
- #36: If you want to play around with Azure DevOps, I recommend creating a free Azure DevOps account and using the Azure DevOps Demo Generator to quickly create some test projects so have some initial artifacts to explore
