Continuous Integration with Local Agents and Azure DevOps

Abstract:

One of the fundamental tools for modern DevOps software development is continuous Integration (CI). This process provides an automated independent validation and verification of your code, with quick feedback for developers that are under pressure to write higher quality software at a rapid pace. This session examines how Azure DevOps or TFS can be used to manage this process and run a database CI process inside of your data center, on your own instances.

We will explain CI and Azure DevOps as an orchestrator and see a live DevOps flow of the process running on local instances, but controlled from the cloud. Learn how this can start improving your database development teamwork immediately.

Goals:

  • Understand continuous integration (CI)
  • Learn how Azure DevOps can run inside your local data center
  • See how a database build process can work with your code changes
