Azure Pipelines

Azure Pipelines is a cloud-based CI/CD service that automates building, testing, and deploying code. You define pipelines as code using YAML for repeatable and versioned automation.

Key Features​

  • Supports multi-stage YAML pipelines
  • Integrates with GitHub, Azure Repos, and other SCMs
  • Built-in tasks for building, testing, and deploying
  • Parallel jobs and environments

Example Usage​

# azure-pipelines.yml
trigger:
  - main
pool:
  vmImage: 'ubuntu-latest'
steps:
  - task: DotNetCoreCLI@2
    inputs:
      command: 'build'
      projects: '**/*.csproj'

Real-World Application​

You use Azure Pipelines to automate the build and deployment of microservices, run tests, and deliver updates to production reliably.
