Cloud Migration: The Key to Scaling Your Organization

As the global wave of cloud migrations and cloud platform engineering practices have gathered pace and scale, the early cloud adopters and fast followers have reaped the benefits of speed, agility, scalability and cost savings that the cloud offers.

Gartner predicts that 75% of enterprise data will be created and processed outside of a traditional data center or cloud environment by 2025.

Businesses increasingly rely on technology to manage & store data. Many enterprises are looking to migrate their IT systems to the cloud as cloud migration services offer numerous benefits. However, the process of migrating to the cloud can be complex and costly, and success depends on various factors, including planning, communication, and risk management.

In this blog, we’ll explore the benefits of cloud migration, the costs associated with it, and the factors that can impact the success of the migration. We’ll also discuss the challenges of cloud migration and provide tips on how to overcome them.

ServiceNow – Azure DevOps Integration

The IT industry needs optimal efficiency in its enterprise, which is not an easy task. Traditional practices are still in use but are not beneficial as they can slow down the process considerably. So, here comes ServiceNow, which has become a complete packed solution for IT Industries.

ServiceNow is software based on the cloud, providing IT services for automating business tasks and their management. It uses Machine Learning technology to automate processes and create workflows.

Azure DevOps supports a collaborative culture and set of processes that bring together developers, project managers, and contributors to develop software. It allows organizations to create and improve products at a faster pace than they can with traditional software development approaches.

In this article, we will discuss, how to use ServiceNow effectively by integrating it with Azure DevOps.

Prerequisites for Integration

An Azure DevOps organization. Create an organization, if you don’t have one already.
A non-developer instance of ServiceNow.

Configure the ServiceNow instance

Install the Azure Pipelines extension on your ServiceNow instance. You’ll need Hi credentials to complete the installation. See Buying Overview for more details on installing apps from the ServiceNow store.
Create a new user in ServiceNow and grant it the following role: x_mioms_azpipeline.pipelinesExecution.

The Power of Docker Images: A Comprehensive Guide to Building from Scratch

Docker has revolutionized the way we build and deploy applications. It provides a platform-independent environment that allows developers to package their applications and dependencies into a single container. This container can then be easily deployed across different environments, making it an ideal solution for building and deploying applications at scale.

Building Docker images from scratch is a must skill that any DevOps engineer needs to acquire for working with Docker. It allows you to create custom images tailored to your application’s specific needs, making your deployments more efficient and reliable.

Here, in this blog, we’ll explore Docker images, its benefits, the process of building Docker images from scratch and the best practices for building a Docker image.

Introduction to Azure Active Directory

Introduction:

In organizations, employees often need access to various Azure services to perform their tasks. They can use services like SQL database or Azure container services when the system administrator assigns them a user id and password for each service. However, managing multiple user logins for each service can be a hassle for administrators, especially in organizations with over 1000 employees. Azure Active Directory (AD) helps solve this issue by enabling administrators to manage multiple user logins in a centralized manner.

From Code to Container: Understanding the Importance of Container Images

Discover what is a container image, the benefits of container images, as well as their various attributes. Find out how container images are integral to containerization and why they are essential to modern software development and deployment practices.

Containers have revolutionized the way we develop, deploy, and run applications. They provide a lightweight and portable solution for packaging and distributing software, making it easy to move applications between different environments without worrying about compatibility issues. At the core of every container is the container image, which contains all the necessary components required to run an application, such as code, libraries, and settings.
