Did you know SLA for Azure AD is increasing










SLA for Azure AD is increasing the up-time commitment to 99.99% for Azure AD Premium customers to support the need for an Identity service with high resilience and low interruptions





On April 1, 2021, Azure Active Directory will update our public service level agreement (SLA) to promise 99.99% uptime for Azure AD user authentication for all licensed Azure AD Premium customers, an improvement over our previous 99.9% SLA. This change is the result of a significant and ongoing program of investment in continually raising the bar for resilience of the Azure AD services.





Because Microsoft identity services are vital to keep customer businesses running, resilience and security are and always will be our top priority. In the last year, we've seen a surge in demand as organizations moved workforces online and schools enabled study from home—in fact, some national education systems moved entire student populations online with Azure AD. Azure AD is now serving more than 400 million Monthly Active Users (MAU) and processing tens of billions of authentications per day.

Migrating Azure DevOps Variable Groups

Howdy Folks, I was working on an application modernization project. And there was a requirement to migrate application deployments from one project to another in Azure DevOps. deployment pipelines were heavily dependent on variable groups. So, we wanted to migrate these variables group to the new project. Couldn't find any solutions in internet for this, so came up with the below scripts. You can grab the scripts from the below GitHub URL.

Azure IAC Resource Manager Parameter Options

Hey Folks, This time I wanted to talk about different types of parameters passing options and my opinion on each possible method. Having said that, there is no right or wrong answers here. It's purely depending on the solution that you are working on. There are few different parameter options we can use with Bicep especially when you are using Azure DevOps Json Files YML Files Variable Groups In-line Parameters Define Parameters within Bicep In this very blog post I'm not going to go into detail about in-line parameters, parameters within biceps or variable groups in Azure Devops. Cause I assume we are much more familiar with those. and my key highlight on this is yaml parameter files. JSON Parameter Files We all know what Json parameter files are. Following is one of the examples from Microsoft documentation. { "$schema" : "https://schema.management.azure.com/schemas/2019-04-01/deploymentParameters.json#" , "contentVersion" : "1.0.0.0...
