Why Choose This Course

AZ-400T00: Designing and Implementing Microsoft DevOps Solutions is an instructor-led course for professionals who plan, build and operate DevOps practices on Azure. The course is aligned to the skills measured for the Microsoft Certified: DevOps Engineer Expert certification and focuses on how teams design processes and communications, establish traceability from work items to deployed software, and use Azure DevOps and GitHub effectively. Learners explore Agile planning with Azure Boards and GitHub Projects, source control strategy with Git workflows, and collaboration patterns such as pull requests, code reviews and inner‑source to improve quality and delivery flow. 

Across hands-on scenarios, you learn to implement continuous integration with Azure Pipelines and GitHub Actions, design secure release strategies, and apply deployment patterns including blue‑green, canary and progressive exposure. The course covers environment provisioning and automated health checks, secrets and configuration management, dependency management with package governance, and compliance controls integrated into pipelines. It also addresses infrastructure as code using Azure Resource Manager templates and Bicep, supported by automation approaches that help teams deliver consistent environments at scale. 

To help you prepare for certification and workplace adoption, the training emphasises instrumentation, monitoring and feedback loops with actionable telemetry, alerts and dashboards. By the end of the course, you will be able to design and implement CI/CD pipelines, secure and govern code and packages, and streamline collaboration across development and operations for reliable, repeatable releases. A certificate of course attendance is included.
