Reasons for Switching to Azure DevOps App



The Azure DevOps App is a software as a service (SaaS) platform which is used by the developers for developing and deploying software. It is not a single program, but integrates the following features:

 

  1. Azure Boards: It is used for instant planning, visualization, tracking work items, and used as a reporting tool.
  2. Azure Artifacts: The artifcats offer the developers an integrated package including support for Maven, Python, npm, and NuGet package feeds from both public and private sources.
  3. Azure Pipelines: It is basically a language and cloud-agnostic CI/CD platform that is used for supporting containers and Kubernetes.
  4. Azure Repos: It works as a cloud-hosted private Git repository, with the help of pull requests and an advanced file management system.
  5. Azure Test Plans: It works as an integrated and all-in-one exploratory testing tool.

 

Some of the benefits which your organization will enjoy by deploying Azure DevOps App are:

 

Collaboration: Sharing is the main objective of Azure DevOps. For an organization, it is important to host and manage the code according to its needs. Even if your developing team has a collection of PowerShell or VB scripts that are used for managing servers or provisional accounts, storing the code in Azure DevOps works as a central point that helps in managing the code.

 

Integration and Delivery: For a software developing organization Azure DevOps offers a strong platform on which it can deploy its solutions in a series, thus allowing regular integration and deployment. With the help of Azure DevOps CICD pipeline, you are able to use the solution from development to delivery. With a huge market for plugins and integrations, infrastructure-as-code can be used in the pipeline so that the system administrator is able to administer and automate changes according to the interior environment.

 

Open Platform: Azure Devops offers a strong collaboration between industry and community tools. It is miles ahead of TFS. Today there are lots of extensions available in the market, and it is where Azure DevOps perform differently from others. It would be interesting to know that Azure DevOps is one of the strongest tools available in the market which is used for managing your needs required for developing a code.

 

Work Items: Even if your organization does not have a code to manage, you are able to coordinate with the management of your organization with the help of work items. Work items provide a robust solution to various problems whether it is related to project risk, or related to server or a system bug. The work items help in providing solutions to all these problems in an effective way.

 

These are some benefits enjoyed by organizations by moving to Azure DevOps App.
