Summary:

Visual Studio Team Services (VSTS) is a cloud service for collaborating on code development. It provides an integrated set of features that you access through your web browser or IDE client, some of which includes source control, build and release management, agile planning, test management, wiki and much more. In this talk we will share more details on how we use Elasticsearch to light up the search experience of VSTS.
