Course Overview
Hi everyone. My name is John Savill, and welcome to my course, Microsoft Azure DevOps Engineer: Leveraging ARM Templates for Infrastructure. I'm a principle technical architect at Dallas Microsoft Technology Center. Every organization today is looking to embrace new opportunities to deliver business value faster and more effectively. For IT, this often means DevOps practices. In this course, we're going to look at how we take the first step to bring Azure infrastructure services into a DevOps methodology by leveraging templates for resource provisioning. By the end of this course, you'll know how Azure works behind the scenes to define and provide resources, then how to leverage that knowledge to create ARM JSON templates to define and deploy resources. I hope you'll join me on this journey to learn all about deploying resources the right way in Azure with the Microsoft Azure DevOps Engineer: Leveraging ARM Templates for Infrastructure course, at Pluralsight.
