As an Extract, Transform, and Load (ETL) cloud service, ADF empowers you to scale-out serverless data integration and data transformation with ease.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine being able to effortlessly create data-driven workflows that orchestrate data movement and transform massive amounts of data in a single stroke. With ADF&#8217;s code-free UI, intuitive authoring, and comprehensive monitoring and management capabilities, you can turn this vision into reality.<\/p>\n<p>The health care industry presents numerous opportunities where ADF can play a pivotal role.

Many organizations start with an ADF in a development environment and eventually need to promote it to staging and production environments. So inevitably, there\u2019s that moment when you impress your team and manager because you have the Azure Data Factory working just the way you want it to be working in the development environment. Then your manager says, \u201cThis is Great! Let\u2019s get it into Staging and Production as soon as we can!\u201d And then you realize, \u201cUh Oh!\u201d, this isn\u2019t going to be easy! This process can be daunting, but fear not \u2013 we&#8217;re here to guide you every step of the way.<\/p>\n<p>In this multi-part blog series,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/techcommunity.microsoft.com\/t5\/user\/viewprofilepage\/user-id\/1484036\">@Joe_Fitzgerald<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/techcommunity.microsoft.com\/t5\/user\/viewprofilepage\/user-id\/1484035\">@j_folberth<\/a>\u00a0will provide you with invaluable sample guidance for developing and deploying an Azure Data Factory to multiple environments.
