    Hi kkoc3 ,
    Thanks for reaching out to the Microsoft fabric community forum.

    For disaster recovery testing in Fabric with Azure DevOps, it’s best to avoid running tests in your Dev or Prod environments. Instead, create a dedicated sandbox workspace for example, DR-Validation-Workspace  and target your pipeline deployments there. This isolated environment allows you to validate the full recovery process end-to-end without risking disruption to active workloads.

     


    I hope this information helps. Please do let us know if you have any further queries.

    Hi kkoc3, 

     

    There are also CI/CD accelerators: 
    https://github.com/microsoft/fabric-toolbox/tree/main/accelerators/CICD

     

    The way my organization does CI/CD is as follows: 

    We have a dev, test, and prod workspace. Our dev workspace is git enabled and we use feature branching out to new workspaces to do feature development, and then merge back to main once the feature is complete. Main is the branch in the dev workspace. 

     

    Our test and prod workspaces are not git enabled, instead we use deployment pipelines to move from dev to test and then to prod. 

     

    For DR and failure recovery, there is no built in fucntionality. This is why I linked the BCDR accelerator, that is the best starting point right now. 

     

    Note these accelerators are not an official product and don't have support, but rather they are a starting point for you to build a full solution.
