DevOps on the Microsoft Stack shows you how to help your organization implement DevOps, covering the tooling they will need and how to make everything work together while following best practices. The focusis not only on technology but also on the cultural issues that teams will face when implementing DevOps. The author’s goal is to not only show you which tooling there is but help you to successfully use everything together to implement DevOps in your projects and organization.

In this book, you'll learn:

  • What DevOps is and how it can help development teams
  • How to use Visual Studio, Visual Studio Team Services, and Azure to setup a DevOps process
