Azure DevOps: The Expert Panel
summary
Panelists discuss when to keep Azure DevOps versus moving to GitHub and demonstrate hybrid setups that use GitHub repositories together with Azure Pipelines and Azure Artifacts. They describe using ephemeral container agents for VNet-bound builds (containers start in ~3 minutes) to improve security and cost, compare IaC tools (Terraform, ARM, Bicep), propose a repo pattern with a configuration-as-code folder plus secret vaulting, note hosted agent limits (~2,400 free minutes/month), and outline automated pipelines for model training that run and roll back based on Application Insights telemetry.
