==On-premises vs. online==

Azure DevOps is available in two different forms: on-premises ("Server") and online ("Services"). The latter form is called [[Azure DevOps Services]] (formerly Visual Studio Online before it was renamed to Visual Studio Team Services in 2015). The cloud service is backed by the [[Microsoft Azure]] cloud platform. It uses the same code as the on-premises version of Azure DevOps, with minor modifications, and implements the most recent features. Azure DevOps requires no setup. A user [[sign in|signs in]] using a [[Microsoft account]] to set up an environment, creating projects and adding team members. New features developed in short development cycles are added to the cloud version first. These features migrate to the on-premises version as updates, at approximately three-month intervals.<ref>{{cite web
