Lab description

Azure DevOps Server is an on-premises suite of development services that lets teams collaborate on software development as well as building and deploying code. Azure DevOps Server is built on the same foundations as Azure DevOps Services, the cloud-version suite of collaborative code development tools. Azure DevOps simplifies the software development lifecycle by being a one-stop-shop, single-pane of glass - a single place for source control, agile project management, building code, deploying software, and more, without the need to integrate various different third-party tools.

In this lab, you will install a basic deployment of Azure DevOps Server and add multiple collections to the instance.
