## GitHub and Azure: Better together

Earlier, we mentioned how you'll now have more access to purchase GitHub products through Microsoft's trusted channels. Building on this, we're thrilled to share that the GitHub product portfolio is available on Azure. The world's leading organizations build and deploy on Azure with GitHub, accelerating developer velocity with a full developer stack. Azure empowers developers to invent with purpose, realize cost savings, and makes organizations more efficient with Microsoft Azure's open and flexible cloud computing platform. GitHub is the world's leading AI-powered developer platform, empowering organizations to build, secure, and ship software faster to unlock innovation at scale. Together, customers can now seamlessly integrate GitHub's products together with the breadth of Azure services for a powerful code-to-cloud development experience.

## Get started today

GitHub Enterprise and GitHub Advanced Security on metered billing are available to all new customers. New customers can start by [activating a free GitHub Enterprise 30-day trial](https://github.com/account/enterprises/new), which they can also enable a GitHub Advanced Security trial. Customers can convert to a paid enterprise account at any time during or at the end of their trial.

For existing customers with plans managed with a GitHub or Microsoft sales account team, transition to a metered plan can start at time of renewal. Please contact your GitHub or Microsoft account team for further details.

For existing self-serve customers, transition to a metered plan is not yet available, but we will provide further details on our plans to enable this on our roadmap.

__Footnotes:__

*¹ Customers interested in PO invoicing on metered billing will need to engage with their GitHub or Microsoft sales account representative for initial setup.*

*² If you have (or plan to have) a metered billing, multi-deployment plan across both GitHub Enterprise Cloud and GitHub Enterprise Server, please note that you will first need to assign all users to an organization on GitHub Enterprise Cloud.*

Metered Billing for GitHub Enterprise and GitHub Advanced Security

What’s inside:
- A checklist for safeguarding your entire software supply chain—from reviewing and implementing platform security fundamentals to protecting your codebase and build system
- Tips and resources for integrating AI and automation at specific steps in the software supply chain 

Powering DevSecOps with AI and automation can help prevent developers from writing vulnerable code in the first place, generate secure code suggestions that developers can test and refine, and provide context around potential vulnerabilities—all within the developer’s typical workflow. As a result, organizations can save costs by catching and fixing vulnerabilities in the development process rather than in production or after release.

Simply bolting security tools onto a developer’s workflow can create friction, and make it difficult to detect and remediate vulnerabilities. Here’s where AI can help. In this checklist, we’ll show you where and how to integrate AI and automation into your software supply chain.

## The GitHub Copilot Impact Glossary
This glossary lists a number of measures that an organization can use to help evaluate the impact of Copilot for their organization. Learn:
- Definitions and caveats related to measures
- When (which stage) to use a measure
- How to access a measure (source data location)

For more information on GitHub’s approach to measuring Copilot Impact, check out our [GitHub Copilot Learning Pathway](https://resources.github.com/learn/pathways/copilot/essentials/measuring-the-impact-of-github-copilot/).

Remember 😀: The relevance and usefulness of system-level speed and quality measures vary across organizations. Any Copilot impact beyond coding is indirect, and the downstream possibilities are endless. Thus, we must be careful when searching for causality in speed and quality measures. 

The metrics provided below are representative of processes that often improve with Copilot, but the degree of impact will vary. Based on the strengths and weaknesses of your organization, the impact may be more or less. It's less important to achieve a benchmark than to observe neutral-to-positive improvement. Engineering leaders should only be concerned if a metric regresses. In that case, pause to determine the root cause before proceeding.

### Tips: 
- GitHub recommends looking for improvements in each measure over time rather than setting fixed targets.
- We suggest aligning measurement frequency with your development cadence (e.g. sprint cycles).
- You may choose to collate your data points into existing BI or reporting tools for ease of analysis and review over time for trends. Alternatively, use a spreadsheet to track measures over time.
- As you add developers to Copilot you may see a decrease in some measures as those developers build capability and confidence in using Copilot as part of their daily flow. Consider analyzing measurements according to onboarding groups (set of developers provided with a Copilot seat).
- You may choose to monitor some DevOps metrics over the evaluation and adoption stages for early indicators of likely system- impact areas. But particularly in the evaluation and adoptions stages, we recommend focusing on happiness and engagement measures. Once developers are using Copilot effectively, system level measures are more likely to improve.

GitHub [public roadmap](https://github.com/orgs/github/projects/4247/views/1) shows future development plans and feature release schedules.
The roadmap is useful to know in advance what GitHub will be doing in the future and what new features are planned for release, but it can be a bit confusing or difficult to understand the background of why it is being developed.
In this video series, we will introduce the GitHub roadmap in Japanese in a webinar format, and publish the videos as a video series on this website. We hope you will gain a deeper understanding of the roadmap and make better use of it.
