Hi Sai,

IIS is a webserver, you can host your .net Sites/application in it.

TFS is versioning control, using this u can maintain repositories, build process.Also we can use it has eproject management tool as Agile. As you mentioned in the above thread its like a ticket system, assigning PBI/Bug.

Suppose you fixed some bugs or implemented one PBI then you pushed your code changes to TFS repository right. Then you/build team do the build process right and they will create version for that build like Omd1.14. Now they can deploy it in QA, Once everything is working in QA, Same build they deploy it in Production.

Here your question is, is your manager moved code from iis to production right. Yes exactly he did the same. That means once you build the code through MS build it can create one published file, that file you can use it for deploying either in Qa/production.

IIS is the server hosting your web application. He will use Visual Studio to publish the latest version of your application (or the TFS build option), and copy those updated files to the server where IIS is running.

IIS: "Internet Information Services (IIS) for Windows® Server is a flexible, secure and manageable Web server for hosting anything on the Web. From media streaming to web applications, IIS's scalable and open architecture is ready to handle the most demanding tasks."

This hosts your website, webapi and other stuff, so it's accessible from the net.

TFS: "Manage your repositories, build processes, testing infrastructure, and lab deployment all while easily collaborating and reporting status."

This is what you use to store and track your code changes over time.

IIS is a webserver, TFS is a versioning system. They are two very different products so stating the difference is a bit pointless.
