The Pipelines menu contains sub-menus for builds, releases, library, task groups and deployment groups. We will be focusing on the first two sub-menus.
A build pipeline defines the steps to take during build and the triggers that initiate a build. A release pipeline can be used to automate database deployments to one or more environments. Approvers can be added to guarantee that releases occur
at the right time in the project schedule. Of course, logging of both types of pipelines allows the support staff to easily debug any issues that arise. Last but not least, releases can be initiated manually or automatically off a build.
