What is Azure DevOps?
Azure DevOps (formerly Visual Studio Team Services) is a hosted suite of service providing development
and collaboration tools for anyone who wants an enterprise-grade DevOps tool chain.
Azure DevOps can help your team release code in a more efficient, cooperative, and stable manner.
Azure DevOps has a lot of inbuilt functionality that allows teams to get up and running with managing
their project and automating their workflows to increase productivity with a very short initial learning
curve.
You can quickly get up and running with the many tools available.
Agile tools covering Kanban/scrum project methodologies
Git repositories for source control.
Build and Release pipelines for CI/CD automation.
Many pre-built deployment tasks/steps to cover the most common use cases and the ability to extend this
with your own tasks.
Hosted build/release agents with ability to additionally run your own.
Custom dashboards to report on build/release and agile metrics.
Built in wiki.
Azure DevOps is available in two different forms:
Azure DevOps Server, collaboration software for software development formerly known as Team
Foundation Server (TFS) and Visual Studio Team System (VSTS)
Azure DevOps Services, cloud service for software development formerly known as Visual Studio Team
Services and Visual Studio Online.
History: This first version of Team Foundation Server was released March 17, 2006.

Deccansoft Software Services – Azure DevOps About Azure DevOps
Azure DevOps supports adding extensions and integrating with other popular services, such as: Campfire,
Slack, Trello, UserVoice, and more, and developing your own custom extensions.
Azure DevOps provides extensive integration with industry and community tools. It is far from the closed-off
single vendor solution that was the early version of TFS. As noted above, there is a marketplace which makes
hundreds of extensions available, so if Azure Develops doesn’t do something out of the box, odds are a tool
exists in the market which does.
