A small wrap up of the AZ400
- Azure devops is a really good service on pair with GitLab CI/CD
- Infra as code should be required for any production cases
- Really good hosting alternatives for docker images
- Check out application insights, compare the apm part with NewRelic in production
- Check out immutable VM:s with out ssh access
Like everyone else it's a all-in-one solution with everything from CI/CD, source code and issue tracking
The main strength is that it covers everything but it's not polished. I really like it, it's close to what you'll have with running GitLab
Will cover basics needs for issue tracking like jira and trello. Lost of features around managing "resources"
It's a basic version of what you'll have with github/gitlab
The pipeline is following the CI/CD v2 e.g. yaml based. It also have support for plugins
The possibility to host and proxy artifacts the proxy part too basic for our needs
- The project setup will be tricky in a large organisation to get right, a tip is to follow the money when setting up the structure.
- It working best when you use as many of the services as possible and you'll need to consider tradeoffs.
There's a nice journey where a docker image can we hosted
- Application services
- AKS
- Container instances
- Functions (you can run a function in a docker container making a transition smooth)
Super duper happy path to host a docker image
When you would like to run kubernetes without worry about the masters that much.
- Batch
- Container instances
There are so many options to automate the infrastructure
A cloudformation rip-off or the opposite I don't know. Not for humans but really powerful when it's in place.
Next gen infra as code, works really well
Really nice cli. Make sure to think about how the state is managed!
I have only fooled around, but we should try it out side by side with NewRelic Looks really promising!
