Implementing continuous integration and delivery systems with Azure Pipelines

Continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) are ubiquitous concepts in modern development. There are many different services out there that you can use for CI/CD, and one of them is Azure Pipelines. Want to know how it works? You’ve come to the right place.

Implementing CI/CD Using Azure Pipelines takes you through the process of building and automating CI/CD systems using Azure Pipelines and YAML, simplifying integration with Azure resources and reducing human error.

Beginning with an overview of Azure Pipelines and why you should use it, this book will get you set up with build and release pipelines, and then build upon this by introducing the extensive power of YAML syntax, which you can use to implement and configure any task you can think of. Before you know it, you’ll be thrust into real-life scenarios and hands-on implementation tasks with Docker, AKS, and Firebase, but not before you’ve seen how to integrate Infrastructure as Code tools, such as Terraform, and perform code analysis with SonarQube.

After reading this book, you’ll be able to design and build CI/CD systems using Azure Pipelines with consummate ease, and write the YAML syntax to implement and configure all the tasks you can think of.
