Overview

  • Module 1: Build a basic deployment workflow for Bicep infrastructure as code templates by using Azure DevOps and GitHub Actions.

    • After completing this module, you'll be able to:

    • Automate Bicep deployments by using a workflow in GitHub Actions
    • Set up a GitHub secret to authenticate a workflow to Azure
    • Select an appropriate workflow trigger and set of tasks for a Bicep deployment
  • Module 2: Learn how to create, manage, and grant permissions to service principals, which enable your deployment pipelines to securely authenticate to Azure.

    • After completing this module, you'll be able to:

    • Explain what a service principal is, how it works, and how it compares to a managed identity
    • Create a service principal and manage its keys
    • Configure the appropriate authorization for a service principal to deploy Azure resources
  • Module 3: Build a deployment workflow for Bicep infrastructure as code templates. Lint, validate, preview, and test your Bicep code by using GitHub and GitHub Actions.

    • After completing this module, you'll be able to:

    • Add Bicep code linting during continuous integration
    • Add preflight deployment validation during build or release jobs
    • Add what-if checks, including manual approval steps
    • Verify the configuration of the deployed environment
  • Module 4: Build a deployment workflow for Bicep IaC templates. Deploy to multiple environments by using reusable workflows. Learn how to provide environment-specific parameters from your workflow.

    • After completing this module, you'll be able to:

    • Deploy Bicep files to multiple Azure environments from a workflow
    • Use reusable workflows to avoid repetition
    • Use and secure parameters for each environment
  • Module 5: Build a deployment workflow for Bicep infrastructure as code templates. Create a single workflow to deploy infrastructure, applications, and data.

    • After completing this module, you'll be able to:

    • Deploy Azure infrastructure, applications, database scripts, and storage blobs from a single workflow
    • Use workflow scripts and workflow actions to perform deployment steps
    • Use workflow artifacts to publish compiled files for your deployment workflow jobs to use
    • Pass data from your Bicep files to other deployment steps by using outputs
