Dogfooding TFS 2010 in DevDiv

As you probably know from my blog that dogfooding (using the product ourselves) is a very important part of our development cycle. We like to use the product early and often and make sure we understand what it's going to be like for our customers. This

November '07 DevDiv Dogfood Statistics

It's been a while since I wrote about the DevDiv TFS statistics.  Sorry about that, I guess it's just been a really busy summer.  Usage continues to climb steadily and we are just now beginning the rollout to the rest of DevDiv.  The next

Update on adoption of TFS at Microsoft

Our internal adoption team produced an update on our status this week and I thought I'd share the results with you. We're now up to 21 TFS instances in production, hosting a total of 734 projects about 5,600 users. 2 of those instances are running an

Dogfood I/O Analysis

I've been falling so far behind on everything I'm supposed to do I just can't stand it. Today is my day to try to catch up on blogging. I promised I'd follow up on the dogfood I/O analysis from the Orcas upgrade. Well, I got the results a week or two

April DevDiv Dogfood Statistics

It’s now been over a month since the DevDiv dogfood server upgrade to Orcas bits. We’ve continued to poke and prod at the server and make patches as we identify issues. The rate has slowed down from that first hectic week of several patches a day to about

Dogfood Server Upgrade - End of Week 1

The first week of the Orcas Dogfood server upgrade will end today. It's been a fantastic (if hectic) week. After the initial spate of issues we hit Monday, it quieted down pretty quickly. We got the significant issues fixed on Tuesday and have been making

DevDiv Dogfood Status Update

The deployment of Orcas to the DevDiv dogfood server finished ahead of schedule this weekend. We completed the procedure by Saturday night thanks to hard work from the IT team and key people on the TFS team assisting. We spent Sunday shaking out a couple

TFSServerManager PowerTool

Ever since we started dogfooding TFS internally, I've been working on a tool I call TFSServerManager. It's a bit of a misnomer because it's not really a management tool as much as it is an operations tool. In the very early days it started as a tool to

January DevDiv TFS Dogfood Statistics

I skipped the December dogfood update because the activity numbers were so skewed at the end of the month by people’s vacations. There’s nothing that particularly stands out about the dogfood server over the last month. It continues to grow. Availability

November DevDiv Dogfood Statistics

I’m a bit early with my statistics this month but I didn’t want to get too close to Thanksgiving. Activity is down this month (particularly in work item tracking) but # of users is up. The primary reason is some fixes to internal tools that have dropped

October DevDiv TFS Dogfood Statistics

A lot has been happening this last month. We've pretty much locked down TFS2005 SP1 and have been making good progress on the Orcas release. A couple of weeks ago I posted about the performance improvements coming in Orcas - the picture there only continues

September TFS DevDiv Dogfood Statistics

Dogfood activity continues to be brisk but growth has slowed some in the last month. I think the ramp from the onboarding of so many Orcas feature crews is behind us and the growth will be slower until we bring on more PUs. Overall performance and availability

August DevDiv TFS Dogfood Statistics

Another month, a lot more growth. We continue the process of onboarding teams and growing the data. Here's the updated data for August and (now that I'm using a decent blog editing tool) I can start including some cool graphs in these posts :) Users Recent

July DevDiv dogfood statistics

Holy Toledo! The growth in data on our dogfood server just isn't slowing down. The file count (in particular) is really rocketing. We're now over 33 million (yes, million) files and I don't see any evidence that it's going to slow down soon. A while ago,
