You need to recommend an integration strategy for the build process of a Java application. The solution must meet the following requirements:
✑ The build must access an on-premises dependency management system.
✑ The build outputs must be stored as Server artifacts in Azure DevOps.
✑ The source code must be stored in a Git repository in Azure DevOps.
Solution: Configure the build pipeline to use a Microsoft-hosted agent pool running a Linux image. Include the Java Tool Installer task in the build pipeline.
Does this meet the goal?

A. Yes

B. No












 

Suggested Answer: A

To run your jobs, you'll need at least one agent. A Linux agent can build and deploy different kinds of apps, including Java and Android apps.
If your pipelines are in Azure Pipelines and a Microsoft-hosted agent meets your needs, you can skip setting up a private Linux agent.
The Azure Pipelines agent pool offers several virtual machine images to choose from, each including a broad range of tools and software. We support Ubuntu,
Red Hat, and CentOS.
