This is a tutorial for how to use the VS Code Remote-Containers extension to containerize your development environment.ย First, I will discuss my reasons for separating my programming environment and why virtual machines didnโt work.ย Then, Iโll show a simple example using a containerized Python development environment.ย Finally, Iโll give you my reasons why containerizing the development environment fits what Iโm looking for in a solution.
Azure Continuous Integration
In this post, we will set up continuous deployment using Azureโs Deployment Center. Continuous Deployment is used to shorten the release cycle and quickly get code pushed to its target environment. This is especially useful when code is completed in small increments. Automated testing should be used as part of this process to produce stable code. This blog will focus on the continuous deployment.
White Paper: Demystifying Enterprise Cloud Modernization
Many IT budgets are consumed by maintaining existing applications and resources, and getting out from under the weight of these existing applications can be dauntingโschedule is king, and making time to address modernization comes at the expense of current business needs.

In this post, weโll examine one such scenario – merging files. Through trial and error, Iโll show you the normal approach people take, some of the issues that occur with that approach, and a completely different approach that preserves some data lost in the first approach.
