TFS uses its logging framework for automated data collection as well. The logging infrastructure monitors and logs information regarding access and use of the work items and source code, which can then be used by the analysis services to find trends. TFS includes a warehouse adapter in the data tier, which caches data from the underlying normalized database in a form suitable for analytics - in fact tables and dimension tables. [[SQL Server Analysis Services]] are then used to analyze this data, and reports created. Reports can span multiple work items including bug trends, code churning, build trends amongst others. Other analysis applications can also use the data directly pulled off the web services.
===Project portal===
On a per-project basis, TFS also creates a SharePoint site for the project, which can be used to track the progress of the project as well as to explore the work items and source controlled documents in the project, which are presented via the document library. It can also be used to view the reports generated. As a communication medium, the users associated with each other can use it to communicate amongst each other. The comments can be linked to various items as well. For each project, depending on the project properties, TFS uses a predefined template that defines the appearance of the site. These templates can be customized by the TFS administators.
