Microsoft Azure DevOps Solutions (AZ-400) : This exam measures your ability to design a DevOps strategy and implement the following: DevOps development processes; dependency management; application infrastructure; and continuous integration, delivery, and feedback. Microsoft Azure DevOps provides developer services to support teams to plan work, collaborate on code development, and build and deploy applications. Developers can work in the cloud using Azure DevOps Services or on-premises using Azure DevOps Server. Azure DevOps Server was formerly named Visual Studio Team Foundation Server (TFS). Azure DevOps provides integrated features that you can access through your web browser or IDE client. You can use one or more of the following services based on your business needs: Azure Repos provides Git repositories or Team Foundation Version Control (TFVC) for source control of your code Azure Pipelines provides build and release services to support continuous integration and delivery of your apps Azure Boards delivers a suite of Agile tools to support planning and tracking work, code defects, and issues using Kanban and Scrum methods Azure Test Plans provides several tools to test your apps, including manual/exploratory testing and continuous testing Azure Artifacts allows teams to share Maven, npm, and NuGet packages from public and private sources and integrate package sharing into your CI/CD pipelines. Candidates for this exam are DevOps professionals who combine people, processes, and technologies to continuously deliver valuable products and services that meet end user needs and business objectives.
