Master Azure DevOps : Classic & YAML Pipelines, Self-Hosted Agents, Hands-On Labs, CI/CD, and Real Deployments

What you’ll learn

Understand the core concepts of Azure DevOps and how it fits into modern DevOps practices and CI/CD workflows.

Build CI/CD pipelines using both Classic and YAML approaches in Azure DevOps to automate application delivery workflows.

Create and manage self-hosted agents on Windows, Docker, and Kubernetes, and configure them to scale with KEDA for optimized performance.
Understand the full DevOps lifecycle with hands-on projects, from code integration and build to staging, approvals, and production deployments.

Secure Azure DevOps resources by managing permissions and roles across pipelines, environments, repos, and more using best practices and security groups.

Requirements

Basic understanding of software development and application deployment concepts.

Familiarity with Git and version control systems (e.g., cloning a repo, committing changes).

Fundamental knowledge of CI/CD concepts is helpful but not mandatory.

Azure account (free tier is sufficient) to follow along with deployments and hands-on labs.

Optional: Some experience with Docker, Kubernetes, or .NET Core is a plus but not required-everything needed will be explained during the course.
