Building an Azure DevOps Pipeline for Infrastructure

If you ever wanted to see what building an entire Azure DevOps pipeline is like, here’s your chance. This Project will start from scratch building an Azure VM via an Azure Resource Manager (ARM) template stored in a GitHub repository and upon any change, will deploy a new Azure VM, run all required tests and tear down any test infrastructure built.

About the Book

When you search online, you will find various blog posts, documentation, and tutorials on Azure DevOps. These items are valuable resources but rarely does one walk you through a real-world scenario. Many skim over the security aspect leaving passwords in clear text for simplicity or an end product that essentially does nothing. Let's change that.

In this project, you'll learn from soup to nuts how to build a real Azure DevOps release pipeline that automates infrastructure. You'll learn to use Azure DevOps to build a continuous deployment pipeline to provision Azure virtual machines.

Project Summary

By the end of this project, you will have a fully-functioning Azure pipeline. From a single GitHub repo commit, it will:

Build a temporary Azure resource group
Provision an Azure VM via an ARM template
Set up said ARM template in a CI/CD pipeline
Upon any change to the template, kick off a template validation test
Deploy the ARM template to Azure
Test the deployed infrastructure
Tear down all Azure resources

Let's dive right in!
