This article will talk about parallel jobs in Azure Pipelines and the guidelines to determine how many jobs you need in your organization.

What is a Job?

Each pipeline in Azure DevOps starts with a trigger and is composed of one or more stages. Each stage contains one or more jobs that run multiple tasks on an agent.

With this relationship in mind, we can define a job as a set of steps that run sequentially on an agent (computing infrastructure with an installed agent software that runs a job).
