Course Overview
This course provides the knowledge and skills to implement DevOps processes and DevOps practices of continuous integration. In addition, students will learn how to design a release strategy, set up a release management workflow, and implement an appropriate deployment pattern. Students will also learn how to design a dependency management strategy and manage security and compliance.
This course provides the knowledge and skills to deploy an application infrastructure in DevOps pipelines. Students will learn how to implement infrastructure as code and configuration management, how to provision Azure infrastructure using common automation tools, and how to deploy an application infrastructure using various Azure services and deployment methodologies. Students will also learn how to integrate 3rd party deployment tools with Azure, such as Chef and Puppet to incorporate compliance and security into the release pipeline.
In addition, students will learn how to recommend and design system feedback mechanisms, implement a process for routing system feedback to development teams and optimise feedback mechanisms. Students will also learn how to plan for transformation, select a project, and create team structures. Students will also learn how to develop quality and security strategies. Planning for migrating and consolidating artifacts and source control will also be covered.
This course helps students prepare for Microsoft’s Azure Developer certification exam AZ-400: Microsoft Azure DevOps Solutions.

Entry Requirements
Fundamental knowledge about Azure, version control, Agile software development, and core software development principles. It would be helpful to have experience in an organisation that delivers software.
It is recommended that you have experience working in an IDE, as well as some knowledge of the Azure portal. However, students who may not have a technical background in these technologies, but who are curious about DevOps practises as a culture shift, should be able to follow the procedural and expository explanations of continuous integration regardless.
