In this hands-on lab, you will learn how to implement end-to-end DevOps practices using Azure DevOps and GitHub. You will begin by deploying the eShopOnWeb application using GitHub Actions, creating a service principal, and securing credentials with GitHub secrets. Next, you’ll configure self-hosted agents and use YAML pipelines to enable code-based CI/CD workflows with support for branching, versioning, and pull requests. You will define build pipelines, enforce branch policies for continuous integration, and manage releases using gates that monitor app health and alerts. Finally, you’ll integrate the Mend Bolt extension to secure your pipelines by detecting open-source vulnerabilities, ensuring secure and compliant deployments.
