Deploying notebooks to multiple environments
The Azure DevOps CI/CD process can be used to deploy Azure resources and artifacts to various environments from the same release pipelines. Also, we can set the deployment sequence specifically to the needs of a project or application. For example, you can deploy notebooks to the test environment first. If the deployment to the test environment succeeds, then deploy them to UAT, and later, upon approval of the changes, they can be deployed to the production environment. In this recipe, you will learn how to use variable groups and mapping groups in a specific environment and use the values in variables at runtime to deploy Azure Databricks notebooks to different environments.
In variable groups, we create a set of variables that hold values that can be used in the release pipeline for all the stages or scope it to one specific stage. For example, if we have two stages in the release pipeline that are deploying to different environments...
