I’ll be joined by Matty Stratton and Kat Cosgrove of Pulumi to show you how Python and Pulumi will help you deliver your apps to the cloud faster than ever. You’ll be able to enjoy this session from anywhere by heading to this YouTube link. So be sure to st a reminder and join us for a great conversation an demo about Python and Pulumi.

That’s another week in the books! How did you do this week? Fix some things? Break some things? Maybe even learn some things? Each week that passes is an opportunity to practice continuous learning. I am always trying out some new courses on Microsoft Learn to learn about a service I didn’t know about or even to get a refresher on one I already do.

General availability: Azure DevOps updates
You can now copy a dashboard to a different team, the same team, or a different project – and team and query configuration is updated in the new dashboard. This further minimizes the work required to build similar dashboards from scratch for multiple teams. In addition, we included multiple updates to Azure Pipelines. On YAML pipelines, we are setting deny access to all pipelines as the default for protected resources. In addition, Azure Pipelines will post a neutral status back to GitHub when it decides not to run a validation build because of a path exclusion rule.

Azure DevOps Server and Team Foundation Server patches
With this patch cycle, we are releasing fixes that impact our self-hosted product, Azure DevOps Server, as well as Team Foundation Server 2018.3.2. Please see the release notes for additional installation instructions.
