You have a project in Azure DevOps that uses packages from multiple public feeds. Some of the feeds are unreliable.
You need to consolidate the packages into a single feed.
Which three actions should you perform in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order.
Solution:
Step 1: Create a NuGet package.
NuGet and Maven are public package managers that support multiple feeds. Step 2: Create an Azure Artifacts feed that uses upstream sources
If you want to use packages from multiple feeds, use upstream sources to bring packages from multiple feeds together into a single feed.
Step 3: Create a Micrtosoft Visual Studio project that includes all the packages
Consume NuGet packages from upstream sources: Now you can open Visual Studio and install packages from the upstream sources you just configured. Reference:

You are defining release strategies for two applications as shown in the following table.
Which release strategy should you use for each application? To answer, drag the appropriate release strategies to the correct applications. Each release strategy may be used once, more than once, or not at all. You may need to drag the split bar between panes or scroll to view content.
NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Solution:
App1: Canary deployment
With canary deployment, you deploy a new application code in a small part of the production infrastructure. Once the application is signed off for release, only a few users are routed to it. This minimizes any impact.
With no errors reported, the new version can gradually roll out to the rest of the infrastructure. App2: Rolling deployment:
In a rolling deployment, an application’s new version gradually replaces the old one. The actual deployment happens over a period of time. During that time, new and old versions will coexist without affecting functionality or user experience. This process makes it easier to roll back any new component incompatible with the old components.
Does this meet the goal?
Correct Answer:A
