In this customized session Data Platform professionals will be prepared to use Azure DevOps in the workplace. Since there is more demand for Data Platform professionals to have Azure DevOps knowledge.

Brought to you by two MVP’s who both have extensive Azure DevOps experience in the workplace. One of whom is a former Product Owner and the other known for contributing to open-source solutions

During the session we will cover how to use all the default services within Azure DevOps in the workplace. We will also explain some jargon and answer questions along the way.

A lot of examples are based on SQL Server. However, a lot of the topics covered can also be used with other services available within the Microsoft Data Platform. For example, Azure Synapse Analytics.

Topics we will cover along the way include how to:

• Customize Azure Boards to manage your work items on a daily basis.
• Use Power BI with Azure DevOps to track work progress.
• Work with Git, including branch strategies.
• Implement CI/CD for different types of deployments.
• Perform unit tests for SQL Server databases both on-premises and in the cloud.
• Manage test plans without a single spreadsheet.
• Store artifacts within Azure DevOps.
• Make the most out of extensions.
