Azure DevOps

Editor's Notes

• #4: Join the conversation. Potentially replace for speaker contact details / intro.
• #5: DevOps is the union of people, process and products to enable the continuous delivery of value to your end customers
• #9: So does TFS
• #10: Azure Pipelines is the perfect launchpad for your code – automating your builds and deployments so you spend less time with the nuts and bolts and more time being creative
• #12: First OSS project was in 2004 when the Windows Installer Toolkit (WiX) was released to SourceForge. Started contributing to the Linux kernel in 2009
• #13: All the builds you need, using the power of Azure you get one service that gives you unlimited build minutes where you can build on Windows Mac and Linux in parallel using a single build YAML file.
• #15: So does TFS
• #16: Combine Kanban boards and drag-and-drop sprint planning with comprehensive
traceability and reporting for the perfect home for all your ideas–big and small.
• #17: Collaborate on code changes with threaded discussion and continuous integration for each change. Use forks to promote collaboration with Inner Source workflows.
• #18: Collaborate on code changes with threaded discussion and continuous integration for each change. Use forks to promote collaboration with Inner Source workflows.
• #19: Collaborate on code changes with threaded discussion and continuous integration for each change. Use forks to promote collaboration with Inner Source workflows.
• #22: So does TFS
• #23: Whether you’ve already started implementing DevOps or looking to get started, a common challenge is for IT organizations is keeping up with project demand for development and test environments DevTest Labs simplifies environment management for Dev & Test environments in the Azure cloud Provide self-service access for teams, with policies to control cost and enforce use of appropriate images and artifacts
• #24: Deploy repeatedly & reliably using Infrastructure as Code Azure Resource Manager provides these capabilities for Azure out of the box, and works across Azure as well as Azure Stack But if you’re already using 3rd party tools such as Terraform, Ansible, Chef, Puppet or SaltStack – we support those too!
• #25: Just because you’re moving fast, doesn’t mean you have to lose control – even if you have some Shadow-Ops happening Azure security gives you visibility and control of your entire cloud security state Using analytics to provide pro-active recommendations across both Windows and Linux Leverage services like Azure Event Viewer also to track access, see who change what and when. ------ (additional product context) ------ Secure your cloud resources with Azure Security Center With Azure Security Center you can gain full visibility and control of your cloud security state with a single, unified view: Collect security data from multiple sources: Collect, search, and analyze security data from a variety of sources, including connected partner solutions like network firewalls and other Microsoft services. Integration with existing security workflows: Access, integrate, and analyze security information using REST APIs to connect existing tools and processes. Easily onboard cloud resources: Keep pace with rapidly changing cloud workloads. Automatically discover and onboard new resources created in your Azure subscriptions. Continuous security assessment: monitor the security of virtual machines, networks, and Azure services using hundreds of built-in security assessments or create your own. Built-in dashboards provide instant insights into security issues that require attention. Centralized policy management: Ensure compliance with company or regulatory security requirements by centrally managing security policies across all your cloud workloads. Compliance reporting: Use security data and insights to demonstrate compliance and easily generate evidence for auditors. (If asked whether Azure Security Center supports hybrid workloads, the answer is yes: manage security across all your hybrid cloud workloads – on-premises, Azure, and other cloud platforms – in one console.) You can also identify and mitigate risks proactively to reduce your exposure to security threats: Proactive security assessment: Identify software and configurations that are vulnerable to attack. Actionable recommendations: Remediate security vulnerabilities before they can be exploited by attackers with prioritized, actionable security recommendations and built-in automation playbooks. Adaptive application controls: Block malware and other unwanted applications by applying whitelisting recommendations adapted to your specific workloads and powered by machine learning. Controlled network access: Reduce the network attack surface with just-in-time, controlled access to management ports on Azure VMs, drastically reducing exposure to brute force and other network attacks. Azure Security Center has robust capabilities to prevent attacks. When threats do happen, Security Center can quickly detect and respond to threats with advanced analytics and Microsoft Intelligent Security Graph. Industry’s most extensive threat intelligence: Tap into the Microsoft Intelligent Security Graph, which uses trillions of signals from Microsoft services and systems around the globe to identify new and evolving threats. Advanced threat detection: Use built-in behavioral analytics and machine learning to identify attacks and zero-day exploits. Monitor networks, machines, and cloud services for known attack patterns and post-breach activity. Prioritized alerts and incidents: Focus on the most critical threats first with prioritized security alerts and incidents that map alerts of different types into a single attack campaign. Create your own custom security alerts as well. Streamlined investigation: Quickly assess the scope and impact of an attack with a visual, interactive experience. Use predefined or ad hoc queries for deeper exploration of security data. Contextual threat intelligence: Visualize the source of attacks on an interactive world map. Use built-in threat intelligence reports to gain valuable insight into the techniques and objectives of known malicious actors. At Microsoft, we analyze 300 billion user authentications and check 200 billion emails for spam and malware monthly. We also have unprecedented visibility into cloud infrastructure choices, platforms and the activity therein. Such visibility has no precedent in the on-premises world.
• #26: Azure’s monitoring solutions provide pre-defined solutions with smart thresholds and intuitive dashboards so you can start getting insights straight away Azure Monitor provides metrics for all Azure infrastructure, building upon that you can leverage both Log Analytics and Application Insights to gain greater insights into your Infrastructure and Applications respectively – leveraging Azure to simplify this into standardized dashboards for both your Developer and your Operations teams Spend less time separating the signal from the noise and accelerate you root cause analysis You can also automate and integrate into your existing service desk platforms such as Service Now ------ (additional product context) ------ Monitor your cloud health with Log Analytics Collect and store your data from any source Easily collect, store, and analyze your systems and operational data from any source, both on-premises and in the cloud. Collect data from a wide range of sources including virtual machines, storage accounts, activity logs, Windows, Linux Servers, Java, .NET, legacy and modern apps. Centrally store activity logs, network logs, infrastructure metrics, app data points, diagnostics logs and alerts. Gain deep operational insights Understand CPU disk and memory utilization for your virtual machines. Get a comprehensive view of applications and network dependencies across multiple virtual machines to perform root-cause analysis more quickly. Track configuration changes, system updates, and malware status to improve security & compliance. Visualize data in intuitive and customizable dashboards. Find the information you need quickly using interactive queries and full-text search. Detect, diagnose and fix issues quickly Get notifications and alerts with rich diagnostic information so you can always stay on top of the issues. Separate the signal from the noise and accelerate root-cause analysis across platforms using advanced analytics including machine learning algorithms. Automate the implementation of recommended fixes so you can address issues quickly. Integrate with customer service systems such as your ticketing tool to speed up implementation of fixes.
• #29: Enterprise scale
• #31: The functionality you know and love today remains and will continue to be actively expanded on at the same rapid cadence as you are used to. The services will get even more open and extensible with more choice to your workflows. You will be able to move to the new UI when it works for you and your team Existing Accounts https://myorg.visualstudio.com continues to work but new https://dev.azure.com/myOrg address also available for opt-in. New UI opt-in per user. Will start advertising new UI once feedback from new accounts and early adopters has been incorporated. Can disable services on a per project basis New Azure branding in communications and documentation (emails, alerts etc). Websites and documentation will move from Visual Studio to Azure based locations (with redirects in place). Redirects available for some time. TFS will remain the on-premises brand until we ship the next major version in 2019. Existing TFS branded information and downloads remain in Visual Studio locations until next release. The new UI will be available in that release. Pricing A few key changes: Public project usage is free. The free tier for Pipelines now includes 1,800 minutes per month, up from 240. Pipelines can be used independently from Repos—so if your repos are hosted on GitHub you don’t need to pay for Repos & Boards (Basic) for your users. New Accounts https://dev.azure.com/myOrg based URL. New UI by default.
• #38: Moving from the developer environment, Azure also makes deploying, or integrating existing, DevOps pipelines as fast as possible Azure DevOps Projects is the quickest way to get started with DevOps on Azure for people who know about DevOps but are just starting or want a quick way to create a basic pipeline to play with or build upon. DevOps projects creates a basic, complete CI/CD pipeline in Azure which can later be extended and customized outside in Azure Pipelines Although DevOps Projects builds a DevOps pipeline on Azure it allows for any easy “Getting started” experience with Azure Pipelines which can then be applied to hybrid and on-prem scenarios with Azure Pipelines which can target any platform or with Azure DevOps Server which can be installed on prem.
