Continuous Delivery and DevOps with Azure DevOps: Managing Builds from Pluralsight

In this course, you will learn how to set up an automated build with Azure DevOps or Azure DevOps Server pipelines. By the end of this course, you will be able to implement continuous integration builds that are the fundament for your DevOps teams.

In this course, Continuous Delivery and DevOps with Azure DevOps: Managing Builds, you will learn how to set up an automated build with Azure DevOps or Azure DevOps Server pipelines. First, you will learn the used terminology and how the infrastructure works that will run your build. Next, you will discover how to start with a simple build, to get you started as fast as possible and then we will take a deeper dive into available options and concepts that will help you create the most efficient builds or your teams (like e.g Yaml builds). In the demos, you will learn how to set up an automated build for web applications, how to optimize those builds to run in parallel and how to do this in a secure and compliant way. Finally, you will explore how to also incorporate Infrastructure as code so you can also ensure the consistent setup of your infrastructure. All resulting in a fast, reliable, and repeatable build that can serve your team as a heartbeat of your product development. By the end of this course, you will know how to implement continuous integration builds that are the fundament on which you can run your DevOps teams.
