Azure DevOps can deploy to any cloud on-premise, and you can bring any code to our tooling. This means it&#8217;s not just for Windows developers, or .NET developers, but for everyone &#8211; be it multi-platform, open source, or your on-premise environment.<\/p>\n<p>One thing it&#8217;s really great for is CICD &#8211; or Continuous Integration, Continuous Delivery &#8211; and it does this with automation. So things like infrastructure code, using third-party tools like Terraform, or deploying ARM templates into Azure, can all be done automatically. You can even look at automating your actual code with your developers using Azure pipelines.<\/p>\n<p>Azure DevOps can also manage projects and tasks. It&#8217;s great for project managers to know what tasks exist, when they&#8217;re being assigned to each person, and when they&#8217;ve been completed. It&#8217;s also possible to see which tasks are creating blockers, so you can manage your workflow more effectively.<\/p>\n<p>You can also maintain your project source code with Azure DevOps. You could host it in Azure Repos, which hosts it more locally in the cloud but as a local distribution, or you could use a central distribution model like GitHub. Whatever you choose, you can bring in your existing source as it is today and work with it within Azure DevOps.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-gb\/azure\/devops\/user-guide\/what-is-azure-devops?view=azure-devops\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">What is Azure DevOps?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-gb\/azure\/devops\/user-guide\/sign-up-invite-teammates?view=azure-devops\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Start using Azure DevOps for free<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.microsoft.com\/en-gb\/azure\/devops\/?view=azure-devops&amp;viewFallbackFrom=vsts\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Azure DevOps on Microsoft Docs<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Get started with Azure DevOps<\/h3>\n<p>With Microsoft Learn, you can kick off your journey into Microsoft DevOps with easy to understand training &#8211; and best of all, it&#8217;s free!
