4. What is DevOps?
• Is it Automation
• Is it a Tool
• Is it a team

5. Problem in a Nutshell…
• Bottlenecks in Software Development
• Missed Deadlines
• Technology issues
• Code is not building. Issue with the Build Server
• Production Deployments
» Application crashes
» Login issues
» etc etc etc
Communication
Less of Understanding
Integration Issues

6. What is DevOps?
• It is a Culture- a mindset that your team or

• Cloud service for collaborating on code development
• Integrated set of features that are accessible through web
browser or IDE client
• Git repositories for source control
• Agile tools to support planning and tracking work
• Highly customizable dashboards
• VSTS instance
– Free of 5 users
– MSDN subscription

11. Effective Release Pipeline
Continuous Integration(CI)
• Is a development practice that requires developers to
integrate code into a shared repository several times a
day. Each check-in is then verified by an automated
build, allowing teams to detect problems early

12. Effective Release Pipeline
Continuous Deployment(CD)
• Is a software engineering approach in which teams produce
software in short cycles, ensuring that software can be
reliably released at any time. It aims at building, testing
and releasing software faster and more frequently

13. Configuring CI (VSTS)

14. Build Management
• Version Control System
– TFVC
– Git
• Build Agents, Agent Pools, Agent Queues
• Build Definition- Collection of tasks

23. Release Management
• End to end release process for an application to
be deployed across various environments
• To author release definition; specify the
artifacts
• Can restrict the deployments using approvals

30. Demo CI/CD

31. Artifactory Management
• Built-in Package Management repository
– NuGet
– NPM
– Maven
– Gradle

32. Jenkins
• Open source CI tool
• Integrate DevOps stages with the help of
plugins
• Every change made in source code is built
• Can be installed through Native System package,
Docker or even Standalone on a machine with JRE

34. Jenkins Master Slave Architecture
• Jenkins Master
– Schedule build jobs
– can execute jobs directly
– Dispatches builds to slaves for actual execution
• Jenkins Slave
– Java executable
– Listens requests from the Master instance
