16. What we’ve been hearing…and why we can’t wait Some consistent requests from our clients during the SharePoint 2007 lifecycle:
36. Platform Basics SharePoint 2010 is a 64 bit only platform. Direct upgrades from 32 bit servers to 64 bit servers require prep work. Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2008 R2 X64 SQL Server 2005 x64 SP3 CU3 Or SQL Server 2008 x64 SP1 CU2 Or SQL Server 2008 R2 May also need KB971831 - support token authentication without transport security or message encryption in WCF
37. Shared Service Applications The 2007 Shared Services Provider has been broken up; each of its elements is now a Shared Service Application Mix and match them singly or in groups, to match farm’s needs. [No need to deploy Visio Services if you don’t use it.] Crawl/index no longer a single server role In 2010, administration can be delegated Key targets: Enterprise search, metadata, user profiles
38. Managed Metadata Service Centralized shared hierarchies of tags and terms [taxonomy] Centralized governance of user-created keywords [folksonomy] Centralized sharing and publication of content types throughout the enterprise
39. Client/Browser Technology Internet Explorer 7/8, Firefox and Safari are all supported. IE6 is not supported, so don’t defer that upgrade! Most other browsers are still supported for Internet configurations Office 2010 includes optimizations for the new platforms Offline Access 2007: used Outlook 2007 and Groove SharePoint Workspace 2010 integrates offline documents and lists
40. Office Web Applications SharePoint 2010 provides a server version of Office applications – Office Web Access, or “OWA”. In part, this enables simultaneous multiuser editing of Office documents: Excel in OWA, not client Word/PowerPoint on client only if file opened from a shared document library OneNote client or OWA The best iPhone/iPad app you can’t get in the App Store!
