Mastering DevOps on Microsoft Power Platform

Mastering DevOps on Microsoft Power Platform

By: Uroš Kastelic, József Zoltán Vadkerti

Overview of this book

Mastering DevOps on Microsoft Power Platform is your guide to revolutionizing business-critical solution development. Written by two Microsoft Technology Specialists with extensive experience in enterprise-scale Power Platform implementations and DevOps practices, this book teaches you how to design, build, and secure efficient DevOps processes by adapting custom software development practices to the Power Platform toolset, dramatically reducing time, cost, and errors in app modernization and quality assurance. The book introduces application life cycle management (ALM) and DevOps-enabled architecture, design patterns, and CI/CD practices, showing you why companies adopt DevOps with Power Platform. You'll master environment and solution management using Dataverse, Git, the Power Platform CLI, Azure DevOps, and GitHub Copilot. Implementing the shift-left approach in DevSecOps using GitHub Advanced Security features, you’ll create a Power Platform tenant governed by controls, automated tests, and backlog management. You’ll also discover advanced concepts, such as fusion architecture, pro-dev extensibility, and AI-infused applications, along with tips to avoid common pitfalls. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to build CI/CD pipelines from development to production, enhancing the life cycle of your business solutions on Power Platform.

We also delved into the inner workings of professional DevOps pipelines and saw how build tools such as Azure DevOps tasks and GitHub actions use the underlying PAC CLI to perform actions within provider-hosted or self-hosted agents.

In the second half of the chapter, we combined the Power Platform managed pipeline results from Chapter 4 with professional DevOps tools and achieved a version control integration directly from managed pipelines. To top it all off, we used GitHub Copilot and Copilot for Power Automate to generate YAML pipelines and Power Automate cloud flows that we had previously created manually.

But hold on to your hats, because in the next chapter, we will go even further and delve into YAML techniques to do some real magic with pipeline templates, GitHub workflow...
