We are pleased to announce that the v1.4 flight of the TFS Planning and DR Avoidance Guide has firmly landed, after Bill Heys completed the copy editing and the product owner has given us the “thumbs up”.
what’s included?
The latest guidance includes practical guidance for three main scenarios:
- Planning a TFS deployment … what servers , how many team project collections, team projects and teams do I need?
- Disaster Recovery … avoiding a disaster and recovering from one.
- TFS on Azure Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS).
