Managing Team Foundation Server Proxy

  • Article

Visual Studio Team Foundation Server provides support for distributed teams to use version control through the Team Foundation Server Proxy. Team Foundation Server Proxy manages a cache of downloaded version control files in the location of the distributed team. By configuring the client to use Team Foundation Server Proxy, you can significantly reduce the bandwidth needed across wide area connections. In addition, you do not have to manage downloading and caching of version files; management of the files is transparent to the developer who is using the files. Meanwhile, any metadata exchanges and file uploads continue to appear in Team Foundation Server.

For information about how to install Team Foundation Server Proxy, see the following page on the Microsoft Web site: Installation Guide for Team Foundation.
