DevOps Take Home Exercise

Repository content

• Folder with sample frontend application written in Angular
• Folder with sample backend microservice written in .NET 7, C# and T-SQL

The application is intended to show a list of recent security incidents. Security incidents from the database are presented first. Additional rows on the list are randomly generated.

Your Job

The purpose of this exercise is to demonstrate how to setup the infrastructure in a deployed Azure environment ​using code​. You can use whatever tools you want to do this (Chef, Puppet, Terraform, etc.). A few caveats for how the application should be deployed:

• Frontend is publicly available
• Backend service is a microservice that is called by frontend but is not publicly accessible
• AzureSQL database should not be publicly accessible

Don’t worry about fancy DNS for any parts of the application, accessing it via IP or Azure DNS is fine. Feel free to use Azure PaaS Services(e.g. App Services).

What we expect in your deliverable:

• All the needed links to the actual infrastructure
• All the needed links to your code

Purpose of the Exercise

The purpose of the exercise is to understand how you approach the problem, the decisions you make in the infrastructure, and your ability to use code to accomplish things.

Please timebox your effort to 2 to 4 hours. An incomplete solution is not failing the exercise.

Backend preparation

Download .NET 7.0 SDK and run:

build.ps1

Remember to initialize MS SQL Database using:

backend\sql\initialize-db.sql

Optionally you can containerize backend application using Docker for Windows:

docker-build.ps1

Docker and docker-compose configuration aren't complete so additional effort needs to taken to prepare these.
