- 8. #GIBMad2017#GIBMad2017 DevTest Labs ConceptsLabs Infrastructure that encompasses a group of resources, such as Virtual Machines (VMs), that lets you better manage those resources by specifying limits and quotas Virtualmachine Azure VMs give you the flexibility of virtualization without having to buy and maintain the physical hardware that runs it, although you still need to maintain the VM by performing certain tasks, such as configuring, patching, and installing the software that runs on iT Environment DevTest Labs, an environment refers to a collection of Azure resources in a lab. This blog post discusses how to create multi-VM environments from your Azure Resource Manager templates Baseimages Base images are VM images with all the tools and settings preinstalled and configured to quickly create a VM. You can provision a VM by picking an existing base and adding an artifact to install your test agent. You can then save the provisioned VM as a base so that the base can be used without having to reinstall the test agent for each provisioning of the VM Artifacts Artifacts are used to deploy and configure your application after a VM is provisioned. Artifacts can be tools, actions or applications Repositories Artifact repositories are git repositories where artifacts are checked in. Artifact repositories can be added to multiple labs in your organization enabling reuse and sharing. Formulas Formulas, in addition to base images, provide a mechanism for fast VM provisioning. A formula in DevTest Labs is a list of default property values used to create a lab VM. When creating a VM from a formula, the default values can be used as-is or modified Policies Policies help in controlling cost in your lab. For example, you can create a policy to automatically shut down VMs based on a defined schedule Caps Caps is a mechanism to minimize waste in your lab. For example, you can set a cap to restrict the number of VMs that can be created per user, or in a lab Securitylevels Security access is determined by Azure Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). There are two types of roles to define user permissions: lab owner and lab user.

- 19. #GIBMad2017#GIBMad2017 DevTest Labs for Training Use DevTest Labs for training purposes: • Trainees cannot see VMs created by other trainees • Every training machine should be identical • Trainees can quickly provision their training environments • Control cost by ensuring that trainees cannot get more VMs than they need for the training and also shutdown VMs when they are not using them • Easily share the training lab with each trainee • Reuse the training lab again and again
