VM Agent based builds are an obsolete model. A docker/container-based pipeline is the current state of the art and allows for very fast builds with caching built in and isolated stages with narrow responsibilities.

We offer container jobs [1] and recently added the ability to use service containers [2] as well. Disclosure: I'm a PM for Azure Pipelines.

Funny enough I had not had the time to write about this yet. This resolves one of the other issues on my list. Thank you.

There is an official Linux image for a VSTS Build Agent container - but, frustratingly, not for a Windows one! People have been begging for such an image for a long time now, but Microsoft do nothing... I just don't understand why they treat Windows as a 2nd class citizen!
