Intro

Azure Template Specs is an option for storing Azure ARM templates inside Azure to ease sharing templates across your organization. Accessing Template Specs is controlled with RBAC assignments, making Template Specs security like most other Azure resources. Template Specs deploys resources in Azure and is compatible with the tools we know already, so PowerShell, Azure CLI, Pipelines, and the Azure Portal.

To deploy from a Template Spec, a user only needs “Reader” permissions to the Template Spec, but permissions to create the resource in Azure are also required.

In this post, I want to show you how to deploy a .Net 6.0 website to Azure using Azure DevOps. I will create a demo website in Visual Studio using the Microsoft provided templates and publish the website to Azure using a pipeline.

Workflow
The flow for the demo website is simple. I update text on the website and commit the code to an Azure DevOps repository. From Azure DevOps, I can use the repository in a pipeline to deploy the code to Azure. The workflow would be a continuous effort for a production website, so deployment can often happen with new ideas getting into production fast and effortlessly.

Intro
I want to create the Azure resources needed to build Azure Functions in this post. I will guide you through the necessary bicep files to deploy a Storage Account, Application Insights, App Service Plan, and the Azure Function. You will deploy everything with code by the end of this post, including a demo function.

All code can be found on GitHub .

Workflow
As shown below, the workflow is:

• Creating Storage Account
• Creating Azure Application Insights
• Creating Azure App Service Plan
• Creating Azure Function
• Deploying demo function to the Function App.

Intro
In this blog post, I want to show you how to maintain route tables and network security group (NSG) configurations in Azure using Azure DevOps and pipelines. I have already written a post on the NSG part, but I have updated a few things since then, so I want to show that in this post.

You can find all the files in this post in their full length on my GitHub .
