13. TFS Release management concepts Environment Set of machines where we deploy our software Tool / Action A tool is software required to carry out a deployment task An Action is a preconfigured way of using the tool for deployment purposes Component Part of the software that we want to deploy and is one self contained entity Has a Source (e.g a build drop) Has a deployment definition (using a tool) Has configuration variables Is used in a release template

14. TFS Release management concepts Release template Defines how to deploy a component to an environment

15. Designed to work cross network boundaries Deploy agents work based on a pull model No additional ports open on the target machine Agents pull their own updates, to keep tools up to date Tools for deployment also pulled to server You place your tools in the tool and the deploy agent downloads the tools No need for install on server, it is slipstreamed on the server Proxy for drop location TFS drop location normally not available on production server In release server can act as proxy for the deployment drop
