CI/CD baseline architecture with Azure Pipelines
- Category: CI/CD
- Date 12-01-2023
Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) is a software development practice that emphasizes the rapid and frequent release of new code changes to production. Azure Pipelines is a cloud-based CI/CD service provided by Microsoft Azure that allows developers to build, test, and deploy their applications to various platforms, including Azure itself.
The baseline architecture for a typical CI/CD pipeline using Azure Pipelines includes the following components:
- Source code repository: The codebase is stored in a version control system (VCS), such as Git or Azure Repos.
- Build agent: A build agent is a machine or container that executes the build process. Azure Pipelines provides hosted build agents or allows for self-hosted agents to be configured.
- Build pipeline: A pipeline is a sequence of steps that defines how the code is built, tested, and packaged into deployable artifacts.
- Release pipeline: A release pipeline is a sequence of steps that defines how the artifacts are deployed to various environments, such as staging and production.
- Deployment targets: These are the environments to which the code is deployed, such as Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), Azure Web Apps, or Virtual Machines.
Azure Pipelines also provides various tools and integrations to enhance the CI/CD pipeline, such as build and deployment approvals, automated testing, and continuous monitoring of the deployed applications.
