I saw there is a teams app for azure pipelines and while adding that it is asking for complete pipeline access to the group we add to.
Instead of using this, I just want to send notification to a teams group or individual users that build is successful or failed.
Can anyone please guide how to do that.
May be any pipeline step at the end also feasible.
Let's say I have branch fetaure1, where there is pipeline file.
The trigger will be like this.
trigger:
- feature1
For development purpose, I created a new branch from it say (feature1_deveoper1)
But, even though this new branch has this pipeline file, need to modify this again to get trigger working from it.
trigger:
- feature1
- feature1_developer1
So, after all my work, let's say I want to merge to the feature1 branch, again I need to remove this new feature entry and merge it to the branch.
Any better approach for this situation?
We have an on-premises Azure DevOps Server 2019, bought as a "standalone" license (not subscription based). Are we entitled to upgrade to 2020 or is this a separate, licensable product that we'd have to purchase?
I can't find any pricing specifically for 2020, and the MS pricing page still seems to be aimed at 2019. This got me wondering whether 2020 is essentially just an "update" to 2019, therefore we'd be entitled to install it?
I just need some help to figure out if Azure Firewall is actually needed for the below architecture. Just to set some context, we are using a micro-services based architecture deployed in AKS. Apart from that we have already configured Web Application Firewall (WAF) for the Applications and SQL Firewall for the Databases. It you would be really helpful if someone could provide insights on the need for Azure Firewall and the reason for that conclusion. If Azure Firewall is not needed, Kindly let me know on how we can protect the exposed ports. Thanks in advance Please find the architecture diagram here
I have been tasked with the mission to setup development pipelines in a predominant Windows environment, using mainly Devops Server 2019.
I personally come from a strong Linux background, and been building pipelines and development lifecycle systems for enterprise corporations in the linux world, using jenkins, laravel forge, travis-ci and later on kubernetes and OpenShift etc.
When setting this up in such a world we used to provision linux machines using red hat satellite with a custom centOS image. All application were using ansible during deployment and each application would install its own dependencies like correct java version, or GO version, and manage things like opening local firewall ports, set up its own user/groups and its service etc.
Since centOS has yum as a packet manager, all servers where directed to use the redhat satellites repository as a central repository which made governance of allowed 3rd party installed packages easy.
So my question is, how is this done in a Windows world? Or is all done manually?
Windows has the "chocolatey" packet manager but is that widely used? Ansible doesn't seem to be used, because it looks like its very complicated to set up windows to use ssh.
Im working in an environment where most applications are old .NET framework applications, but they do have a Devops 2019 server. And Devops 2019 has some infrastructure as code, managed using yaml files, but nothing is mentioned there if i'd like to install a specific .NET framework version etc.
So my question is, how is infrastructure as code, and dependencies handled in the Windows world except for Nuget for application 3rd party libraries.
