We've come a long way with build agents on Azure DevOps, I still remember all the times I had to call the system administrators to inform him that our build server running in our office had no more disk space.

Now we have hosted agents that require zero maintenance, amazing, I use them in almost all of my projects. But what if hosted agents don't fit your use case, or you don't like giving away more money than necessary to Microsoft.

This is where Azure DevOps Scale Sets come in. Do you want to deploy resources behind your Azure firewall running 20 parallel jobs on Friday 4 pm on a 416 core machine?

No problem! In this talk I will show you how to set this up step by step in a matter of minutes.
