Visual Studio Team Services: Migrating from TFS

via Pluralsight

Overview

At first glance, migrating to Visual Studio Team Services seems like a daunting task. This course walks through all required migration steps in detail and gives substantial best practices, resources, and cleanup recommendations along the way.

Team Foundation Server is getting better than it has ever been. The cloud offering of TFS, Visual Studio Team Services, is now mature enough that just about any organization out there can take advantage of the many benefits of the cloud infrastructure. It is apparent that a great majority of TFS users have already migrated to VSTS. Unfortunately, the end-to-end walkthrough resources out there tend to fall flat in this area. In this course, Visual Studio Team Services: Migrating from TFS, you will learn the many facets of every migration step, as well as the pitfalls that can be realized by non-optimal decisions. You'll also explore migrating to GIT source control. Finally, you'll learn and understanding the important responsibilities about being a user of cloud technologies. This course can be used as a guide for specific parts of a migration or the entire system. After finishing this course, you will have the skills needed to perform a best-practice migration to VSTS from any level of TFS on-premises implementation.
