Stop following “basic” tutorials that only work in a sandbox. In the real world, companies use Self-Hosted Agents and YAML Pipelines for security, speed, and control. 🚀 In this video, we build a production-grade CI Pipeline for an ASP.NET (.NET 8) application. Learn to automate the entire flow: Code Commit ➡ Docker Build ➡ Push to Azure Container Registry (ACR). No fluff—only industry-standard DevOps. ⏳ CHAPTERS: Master the Pipeline 0:00 - The Real-World Importance of ACR 1:07 - What is Azure Container Registry (ACR)? 2:05 - Docker Basics: Architecture & Logic 2:50 - Understanding Images vs. Containers 3:24 - Why Industry Demands ACR in 2026 5:03 - Preparing the Infrastructure: Azure VM Setup 6:37 - Securing the Connection via SSH 7:14 - Installing Docker on Self-Hosted Linux Agent 9:07 - Architecting the Dockerfile 9:25 - Writing Production-Ready Code for ASP.NET Image 15:43 - Initializing the Self-Hosted Agent 16:15 - Provisioning Azure Container Registry 17:15 - Configuring ACR Admin Access & Security 17:35 - Testing Authentication: Docker Login via Agent 18:35 - Setting Up Azure DevOps Service Connection 20:00 - Writing the YAML CI Pipeline (Build & Push) 23:40 - The Moment of Truth: Triggering the Pipeline 24:15 - Analyzing the Successful Build 🚀 24:30 - Verifying the Image in ACR Repository 🛠️ What You’ll Master in This Video 🔹 Docker Ecosystem: Clear explanation of Docker, Images, and Containers. 🔹 Why ACR? Role of Azure Container Registry in enterprise DevOps and security. 🔹 Self-Hosted Mastery: Installing & configuring Docker on a private Azure VM Agent. 🔹 The Dockerfile: Writing a production-ready, multi-stage Dockerfile for ASP.NET (.NET 8). 🔹 Service Connections: Securely linking Azure DevOps to your Azure subscription. 🔹 YAML CI Pipeline: Full script to automate Docker Build & Push to ACR. 🔹 Automation Flow: Witness the complete flow in action: Git Push ➡ Docker Build ➡ Push to ACR ✅ 💡 Why This Video is a Career Game-Changer In 2026, clicking buttons isn’t enough. Companies want DevOps Engineers who can: * Write Infrastructure as Code (IaC) * Manage self-hosted build environments * Deploy production-ready Docker containers to ACR * Perfect for AZ-400 prep, enterprise DevOps roles, and real-world projects. 🎯 Perfect For * ASP.NET Developers moving into DevOps/Cloud * DevOps Engineers transitioning from Microsoft-hosted to Self-Hosted agents * Cloud Architects designing secure containerization strategies * Students building a resume-ready project that works in production 🚀 Level Up Your Career Subscribe to The Techzeen – We don’t just teach tools; we build production-ready DevOps systems. 🔔 Azure DevOps Concepts: https://github.com/farzeen-ali/Azure-DevOps-Concepts Azure DevOps Full Course 2026: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5OhSdfH4uDvt03T9sdVudbXLCNpuybR7 DevOps Tutorial 2026: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5OhSdfH4uDsyUM02ZHl2mOYBpihCYsml React Native CLI Full Course 2026 : https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5OhSdfH4uDuUpj3fwknoUVBkT2oMXyOl #AzureDevOps #CICDPipeline #Docker #ASPNet #DotNet8 #ACR #SelfHostedAgent #YAML #AzureCloud #DevOps2026 #Containerization #TheTechzeen #AzureContainerRegistry
