In this series, Abel and Zachary Deptawa walk through deploying to on premises Windows servers behind firewalls using Azure DevOps.
In part two, we show how easy it is to set up Deployment Groups inside of Azure DevOps Service for Windows servers. This deployment group will be used with our .NET Build from the previous episode and will also be configured as our target in our Release Pipeline in the next episode!

Is powershell secure for deployments? Some customers doesn't want using powershell
this is awesome guys
I like the presenter style slow nice and easy but database server with access to the internet? Man that should have been part of the video how we deploy without having to expose the db server. Know Microsoft being Microsoft won't touch on that scenario right?
Eureka. This was the video we were searching for. Clearly and simply explained. Wish it gave guidance on how to specify a specific website in IIS.
If the servers can't connect to the internet, do we need to setup proxy first for the servers in order to make them communicate with the internet?
if your on-premise uses proxy server add –proxyurl "http://yoururl.com:port" in your generated script inside the config.cmd like this .config.cmd –proxyurl http://proxy.com:8080
Just over a six minute video and almost a third of it is spent on opening credits and recapping the previous video. This feels like artificial content padding just for the sake of content.
Hi,
We are trying to figure out a secure way to deploy web app from Azure DevOps to our on-premise environments (Dev, QA, Staging, and Prod).
My security team has asked, how installing the agent is safe for our on-premise environments (Dev, QA, Staging, and Prod)? I have googled but didn't find any clue. I wonder if Azure DevOps product team use deployment groups to deploy apps to their on-premise "production" server?
Please don't talk like we are some stupid kids…. Informative videos, but come on… This could have been demonstrated in 2 minutes….
Thanks for these videos to make life easy for developers migrating to devops but still their organization uses on prem servers for deployment.Would you please add one more video in this series for how to configure variables for multiple environments like UAT, QA, Test, PROD and in such case we may also see how parallel job deployment works plus if we can utilize config transform(for multiple environments or something even simpler) or some other mechanism to maintain various settings depending on the type of environment?
You dont need a deployment group because of the firewall. You can install agents behind a firewall without deployment groups. Deployment groups are for parallel deployments. You can achieve that with normal agents without a deployment group using agent capabilities but its not as intuitive or simple as Deployment groups
Super informative, but artificially fragmented…a bit annoying. Just make one extensive video š
I love this series. Eagerly waiting for the 3rd part. Keep rocking
