Recently, I’ve been toying with a small personal side project where I wanted to implement automated release management with a press of a button, including version numbering and uploading build artifacts. In this blog post I’ll outline how this approach could be used in other projects, too.

In the previous posts we’ve covered how to create an Azure Key Vault using Bicep and how to create an Azure Function App using Bicep. Now, let’s see how we can combine them together and reference secrets from a Key Vault in an Azure Function.
Manage Azure Key Vaults using Bicep

In a previous post, we explored the power of Bicep in defining and managing Azure Functions. Now, let’s dive into the world of Azure Key Vault and see how we can manage one using Bicep.
Deploy Azure Function Apps with Bicep

Since Docker announced that the licensing terms for Docker Desktop have changed so that large companies need to start paying there has been growing interest towards alternatives. How can you switch to a free and open source solution, or should you?
Send Teams Notifications from Azure DevOps

An important part of a CI pipeline is to keep you updated on what’s happening. When a build or a test suite fails you might want to be notified about it. In this post we’ll learn how to send messages to a Teams channel from an Azure DevOps pipeline.
Configure a TLS Secret in Kubernetes

Quite often, when you’re working with a Kubernetes cluster, you also need to handle TLS secrets. Projects like cert-manager can take much of that load off your shoulders but sometimes you still need to configure a certificate manually.
Edit Kubernetes Secrets

Has your API key changed? Maybe you need to update a TLS certificate? There are many reasons why you’d want to edit secrets in Kubernetes. Luckily, this is relatively simple.
What ChatOps Solutions Should You Use Today?

Over the years we have seen many tools that enable communication with computer systems using a chat interface. Many of them are now obsolete as their development has ceased, though they still seem to be recommended everywhere. What are the tools that you should use today?
