Immutable application deployments with F# Make - Nikolai Norman Andersen

Deliver continuously to Azure Web Apps by making your build- and deployment pipeline scalable and testable with F# Make! This presentation will show you how to write build- and deployment-scripts that runs the same on your local machine as when deploying in an Azure Web App!
I'll do the following:
Introduce you to FAKE and how it compares to Cake and PSAKE
Teach you about Kudu, the engine behind deployments to Azure Web Apps
Show you how you can free yourself of saving environment specific configuration in tools like Octopus Deploy and VSTS
Demonstrate migrating Azure SQL databases on deploy, using the Web Apps connection string(s)
Show how add ARM to this setup, how to approach security and how to automatically smoke test

12:30 "it's nothing special" first thing it does is go to a _special_ folder to load application data :D more seriously, i don't know much about deployment, so maybe I'm the naive one here. but there seem to be so many processes with detailed steps that would really put me off. Sure, it's all 'just dotnet code' and the config is 'just data', but there's so much of it that I personally would rather not touch it.
