Seems strange asking this on SO but that's what MS want us to do so here goes...
I'm looking at setting up an on-premise Azure DevOps 2019 server, but as usual the licensing and costs aren't very transparent.
Our dev team are likely to be getting Visual Studio Pro subscriptions, which I believe comes with a DevOps server license and CALs. What happens if we stop these subscriptions - does it mean we can no longer use our on-premise DevOps server?
I'm not very clear on what "extras" we may need to pay for (extensions, pipelines), and I don't want to be hit by any surprises. The essential requirements are:
- Be able to trigger a build on check-in. I can't tell if this is a built-in feature or requires some kind of extension and/or pipeline (and if so free or not?)
- Use build tasks to create NuGet packages and host these on the in-house server. Again, does this require any paid extensions or pipelines?
- There should be no limits on monthly build time (unlike VSTS which I believe is 240 minutes)
