Azure Tutorials series - Cloud Basics

-
We have already started with Azure tutorials in our blog, before we dive deep into Azure, let's understand few cloud concepts to familiarise our readers and boost some confidence.

What is a Cloud?

Delivery of computing services over the internet using pay-as-you-go model. In other words, to rent computer power and storage to others. As the term pay-as-you-go goes, it's like to pay for the services for the duration of time you use them. The biggest advantage of using cloud is that you don't need to work about infrastructure cost like RAM or CPUs or data centres, you get this service from different service provider such as Google, Microsoft or Amazon. And believe me the services are really worth it, it saves you a lot of upfront cost and boosts your business. 

Why move to the cloud?

In fast paced modern world, every big service provider companies are competing with each other in delivering the solution to their customers. The most important factor being the speed here. So using the cloud services can help your business run effectively and could be delightful for your customers as well. I mean to say customers or business users doesn't really need to know the technical details but must enjoy the 100% uptime or availability of the content. It's up to you whether you want to stick to old traditional legacy or innovate with the new digital technologies.

We moved from waterfall model to agile methodology to Devops where we build and deploy applications faster. With the help of cloud, it could mitigate the pain areas as well as the upfront infrastructure cost.

That was the basic idea and business why one should know and use cloud services, we wish to bring more and more articles to understand how to configure it to our businesses.

Happy Learning and happy Sharing!

Testing in CI/CD

-
If you are part of testing fraternity you would have heard CI/CD numerous times by now. It's the talk of the software testing town. In this article, we will cover the basics of CI/CD, what actually it is and how it is implemented in software testing. What is continuous integration? In simple terms, development teams can integrate their code into a shared repository. This helps in maintaining code quality and identifying potential issues with the local version of the code at an early stage. What is continuous delivery? Everything that is being continuously merged by the development team, is continuously deployed to the live environment. Continuous delivery is often coined as ‘Continuous Deployment’ as well. Since most developers work in parallel, continuously integrating their code into one repository would mean that the master branch is continuously updated with new features. In order to ensure that there is no compromise in the code quality with so many changes
