Preface
In the last few years, DevOps has been very popular and has become the point of discussion at the time of kick start meetings of Project. The main aim to adopt to DevOps culture is Quality and Faster time to market. Quality matters, and hence DevOps practices implementation matters too. It is about changing the existing culture and transform the mindset to understand that quality is an essential part of the routine. Continuous Improvement with Continuous Practices such as Continuous Integration, Continuous Delivery, Continuous Testing, Continuous Planning, Continuous Monitoring, and Continuous Innovation helps to create a unique culture based on existing best practices. DevOps practices implementation is a tool agnostic approach, and any tool, whether it is Open Source or Commercial, can be used to serve the purpose. In this book, we will use Azure DevOps for DevOps Practices implementation.
The primary goal of this book is to provide information and skills that are necessary to learn the basic and advance concepts of DevOps and DevOps practices implementation. This book is divided into 12 chapters, and it provides a detailed description of the core concepts of DevOpsand DevOps Practices Implementation with the use of Microsoft Azure DevOps and Microsoft Azure Cloud.
