We use Jfrog Artifactory 7.x and are interested in migrating to Azure. Does anyone know procedures, tools, etc., we can use to perform a successful migration?
We did some research by trying to find something helpful.
I believe this KB article has the information on migrating from one server to another.

Is it possible to authenticate Artifactory OSS (self-hosted) with Azure AD/SAML? Right now we use local Active Directory, but are thinking of deprecating local AD in favor of Azure AD, and moving most authentication to Azure AD/SAML. I understand the other versions of Artifactory can do this, but I can't definitively find if the self hosted OSS version does. If it does not, it may drive us to one of the pay models.
Thanks for any help!
The SAML SSO is not supported in the OSS version of Artifactory. In the link provided, you might find useful information on the top right of the page for JFrog Subscriptions that support the feature (relevant to all features).
Also, you can check the Pricing page for the different features included in each subscription. You should find the SAML SSO feature under the "Pro" subscription level and "Platform Security".
I hope this clarifies more.
Is it possible to configure Azure Repos or custom repos? This provides more functionalities including branching policy, pull request and code review.
Currently, Git is enabled by default, pointing to Azure centralised database.

In short:
No, this is not possible.
The longer answer:
No, I don't think this is possible.
Although there's no documentation that states it is not possible, I can also not find any documentation it is possible. And the lack of UI, REST APIs or documentation on how to specify a custom Git repo leads me to believe this is currently not possible.
The SCM endpoint is one of the managed service components hence it is out of your control.
Can someone pls help me to automate build and release pipelines in Azure DevOps for Azure DB for PostgreSQL database (Single Server) so that I can create a Database and run different scripts in that database for creating/altering tables, functions, indexes etc. ?
I googled and found nothing in Microsoft documentation for this purpose but I did find it can be done using Zapier
As per organizational policies I can not use Zapier or any third-party tools/sites.
Is it doable only using Microsoft build and release tasks in Azure DevOps, can someone pls guide me with any steps for this purpose ?
Database DevOps is difficult because you have to manipulate existing objects, not simply replace them like you do for application deployments. To do this, you have to add a tool that manages your Data Definition Language queries. Or you can build one. We did that a long time ago. I don't recommend it. Tons of work, lots of issues.
For PostgreSQL, I'd suggest you start testing Flyway. It works really well with Azure DevOps. I have a short video you can use to see it in action. Flyway is open source, so getting started with it is license free. You can install the software, but it also runs through containers, so it makes it really simple to implement through the Azure DevOps agents. The concept is pretty simple. It acts as a marshalling tool to run your DDL in the correct order, like a manifest. Then, it marks the database so it knows which scripts it has already run. You go from there.
I came across the Azure Site Recovery runbook scripts to perform various task but now MS recommend using Azure Migrate instead of ASR for migration projects. Any one know if there are any API, ARM, scripts or runbook capability available for Azure Migrate Automation? I haven't been able to find anything.
Anything information on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks,
Here are the set of API's for migrate projects. For more information related to Azure Migrate, please refer this official documentation.
For any one looking into this there is finally PowerShell modules to handle this: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/atscale-migration-automation-support-with-azure-migrate-and-azure-powershell/
As I see I need to create new linux app service.
Recreate domain, certificates binding and deployment pipeline.
And then remove old one.
Is it simplier way to do this?
As Jim Xu mentioned it is currently not possible to move the WebApp from Windows based to Linux. You may have to redeploy the App, leverage the same code with slight modifications and configuration changes as per the requirement.
Cloning feature is not available at the time of this writing. Also, currently there is a limitation - You cannot create a Linux Web App in an App Service plan already hosting non-Linux Web Apps.
Copying the Uservoice post here for clarity & convenience:
" Unfortunately we can’t provide this feature as there are too many internal dependencies for the underlying OS that would make this complex and potentially breaking for solutions. There definitely could be languages that might be supported but they would an edge case."
We really appreciate your feedback/suggestion, so kindly up-vote the Uservoice post -All of the feedback you share there will be monitored and reviewed by the Microsoft engineering teams responsible for building Azure.
