Accelerate Enterprise Software Delivery with Agentic DevOps on Azure and GitHub

Implement an end-to-end Agentic DevOps practice leveraging GitHub Actions, GitHub Copilot, GitHub Advanced Security, Azure Container Apps, Terraform IaC, and OpenTelemetry observability

Key Benefits

• Boost productivity with GitHub Copilot—AI coding, PR reviews, agentic workflows.
• Embed DevSecOps early—SonarQube, Black Duck, Dependabot, and container scanning.
• Ensure consistency with Terraform multi-env deployments (OIDC + approval gates).
• Reduce risk via CI/CD on Azure Container Apps.
• Gain visibility with OpenTelemetry.
