CSI Dev Days

πŸ“… CSI Dev Days

CSI Dev Days is the GitHub @ CSI team's bi-weekly developer event series for engineers across the Constellation Software portfolio. Sessions cover GitHub fundamentals, migrations, Copilot enablement, agentic workflows, multi-part workshops, office hours, and Q&A with Microsoft and GitHub product teams.


🚚 GitHub Migrations

CSI portcos move to GitHub from Bitbucket Server / Cloud, Azure DevOps Repos, GitLab, and Subversion.

πŸ“§ Planning a migration? Email githubConstellationSoftwareInc@microsoft.com first. We'll match you with the right tooling, runbook, and (if needed) migration partner β€” instead of you piecing it together from docs alone.

For self-serve reading:


πŸ“š GitHub Copilot β€” Learning & Skilling

Self-paced & curated

Hands-on

🏷 CSI Pricing (35%) via Azure Billing

CSI portfolio companies qualify for 35% off GitHub Enterprise Cloud and GitHub Copilot (Business and Enterprise) β€” but only when billing flows through an Azure subscription tied to your portco, your operating group, or CSI.

⚠️ Credit-card billing on GitHub is NOT eligible for the CSI discount. Personal credit cards and PayPal payment methods on a GitHub enterprise account do not qualify. To get the 35% rate, the GitHub enterprise account must be connected to an Azure subscription owned by your portco, your operating group, or CSI.

Eligible SKUs

  • GitHub Enterprise Cloud
  • GitHub Copilot Business
  • GitHub Copilot Enterprise

Connect your Azure subscription to GitHub

See Connecting an Azure subscription (docs.github.com) for the step-by-step procedure.

Documentation

  • About enterprise billing β€” Concepts and supported payment methods. docs.github.com
  • Azure subscription payments (concept) β€” How GitHub enterprise usage shows up on your Azure invoice. docs.github.com
  • Billing through Azure subscriptions (reference) β€” Detailed reference for what's billable through Azure and how. docs.github.com

Cost management & chargeback

For portcos that allocate GitHub costs back to teams or products on Azure:

  • Azure Cost Management overview β€” Cost analysis, budgets, alerts, and exports. learn.microsoft.com
  • Tag your Azure resources β€” Use tags on the Azure subscription / resource group to attribute GitHub line items to the right team, product, or cost center. learn.microsoft.com

Need help?

If you hit issues during the connect-to-Azure flow (admin consent, ownership mismatches, eligibility questions), email githubConstellationSoftwareInc@microsoft.com and the GitHub @ CSI team will help unblock you.
