We installed Azure DevOps 2019 on a server in our company. The uploaded Nuget packages are stored in the Artifacts part of Azure Devops. Since we like to keep our code locally on our servers we would like to know where the uploaded nuget package files are stored. Are they only stored on the local company server or are the nuget files uploaded to the Azure cloud? If they are uploaded to the Azure cloud is there a way to upload them only to our own server?
Is there a way to access my nuget packages files that I upload using the DevOps 2019 NuGet Package Manager?
NuGet packages are stored in the Artifacts of Azure Devops, which located in the Azure Devops server(cloud server). When you upload a nuget file, file will be stored into the zure Devops server. But you could still see it from Azure Devops site:
You could download the nuget package and you can also access the nuget package from Visual Studio, Azure Devops, nuget CLI, etc.
Check the document Get started with NuGet packages in Azure DevOps Services and TFS for some more details.
If I understand you incorrect, please let me know for free, I will keep follow.
Hope this helps.

When building Azure Functions using custom containers I am unable to restore NuGet packages from a private Azure Artifacts NuGet feed. I get the error message error NU1301: Unable to load the service index for source https://pkgs.dev.azure.com/<project>/_packaging/<feed>/nuget/v3/index.json in the docker-compose logs, because Docker has no way of authenticating with the Azure Artifacts feed. How do I authenticate with Azure Artifact sin a way that works both locally when debugging in Visual Studio Container Tools, and also when building the Docker images using Azure Pipelines?
Please do not suggest using a PAT, because this is just a security nightmare.
We migrated from TFS 2015 to Azure DevOps. The XAML builds also ported over to Azure. But we need to migrate them to Azure build pipelines as the XAML builds are still running on On premises TFS Server. We have hundreds of builds and cant manually create new pipeline for each build one at a time. Can some one help please?
XAML builds are still supported with Azure DevOps Service (with some limitations), see official response from Microsoft, in my answer here.
We're currently in the process of migrating from TFS to Azure DevOps and we're not planning on upgrading any of our legacy XAML builds (we're creating vNext builds going forward), as they were successfully migrated into Azure.
I figured out a way ( I am not done yet)..
we can call the api and export the build defs into json files
Use the Json files to port them over to the new Build defs. (Porting involves creating new builds programatically and using Azure Api .. + the data from Json files we just exported).
We started to use Team service on visualstudio.com for our versioning control.
As I don't intend to install vs2015 on the server, how can I download the latest version on the server from the Team service?
compiling and publishing on the server is easy
When you install the VSTS Build & Release Agent from VSTS it will include tf.exe, which is all that's needed to map and download sources from the commandline. An alternative to installing the agent is to install Team Explorer (stand-alone download would be 2013) or download the Cross Platform TFS Commandline tools.
You can also download the TFS Client Object Model through Nuget and call it directly from PowerShell.
As far as I can tell there is no stand-alone download of the TFS/VSTS commandline tool (tf.exe).
We have some SSIS packages which we are trying to automate using TFS so that the packages will be picked from repository instead of local machine of developer and then those packages can be deployed to file system. I tried to build the SSIS package solution file using TFS but there is no output, might be because MSBuild cannot understand SSIS packages. Please let me know if you have any idea of how to deploy the SSIS packages from TFS repository to a file system. Well I can easily change the configuration and setup to one environment, but my need is that it has to happen through TFS.
I tried to configure my SSIS Project but I was unable to do so because I was using SQL Server 2008R2 and TFS was 2012. So, I was facing compatibility issue.
However! These links might help you automating your deployment.

Many pardons for this Linkuish answer!
I'm trying to get our TFS server to build a solution with an azure project. To get up to speed fast, I installed the azure SDK 1.6 on the build server/agent. I only needs to build and not publish the project for the moment. But I get the error below.
The imported project "C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v10.0\Windows Azure Tools\1.6\Microsoft.WindowsAzure.targets" was not found. Confirm that the path in the declaration is correct, and that the file exists on disk.
Both the development machine and the build agent is x64, but on the development machine the azure stuff was installed in to "programfiles (x86).
Now I really need an advice on how to get the build agent to build the project, do I really need to include some dll's in the project, or how do I best fix this?
Up and running. A quick and dirty installation of the azure sdk and azure tools for visual studio did the trick.
