How to implement SharePoint in your organizationSPC Adriatics
Speaker: Joško Ivankov;
SharePoint has a large number of options, which is great because it covers a lot functionality, but it also presents a problem in choosing the right functionality for a particular purpose, and also the order of implementation. In this session, based on our practical experience in many implementations of intranet (T-HT, Podravka, HEP, Zagreb airport…) and business applications on SharePoint, we will propose the best way for the introduction of SharePoint in your organization. You will find out quick wins in implementing SharePoint that users will love, and how to set up the basic structure and integration for future (sure) growth of SharePoint implementation.
A slide deck to complement my 2-hour, FREE, on demand SharePoint Training available here: https://youtu.be/mSVC08zbQ7M
The following topics are covered in the course:
- What is SharePoint, OneDrive and Office 365
- The concept of Sites, Pages and Web Parts
- How to upload and download documents from the document library
- How to share a document in SharePoint
- How to setup alerts to be notified of changes to your documents or content
- How to create your own views in a library or list
- The concept of Versioning, Check-in and Check-out
- The concept of Co-Authoring
- How to sync documents to your desktop via OneDrive
- How to sync Calendar, Tasks and Contacts to Outlook
- How to search for documents and items in SharePoint
- How to Export SharePoint information to Excel
It's always been a dilemma -- do you invest in servers, licenses and people to set up and maintain a fully controllable SharePoint infrastructure in-house, or is it time to explore hosting SharePoint off-premise? Legal IT professionals have been struggling with this decision for years.
The on-premise option offers peace of mind from a security and controllability standpoint, but comes saddled with high costs, a demand for resources and limited scalability. SharePoint Online, on the other hand, alleviates the burden associated with SharePoint on-premise by removing the need for servers, software licenses and personnel, and can be rolled out to a large pool of people virtually overnight. However, you'll still need support for integration projects. Join us as we discuss the pros and cons of each option and give you recommendations based on our experiences, deployments and feedback.

Vivafy your SharePoint intranet in Microsoft Teams with Viva ConnectionsJoel Oleson
“VIVAFY” Your SharePoint Intranet with Teams and Viva
Most companies are using Teams for chat, meetings, and basic collaboration. SharePoint Online has been a neglected investment who have invested in Microsoft 365 with many companies still running their Intranets in classic or even in SharePoint on premise. What is to be done?
How do you take advantage of this Viva wave? Agenda: In this session we’ll break down the tactical steps to take your SharePoint Intranets in whatever phase you are in, into your modern Teams environment for an improved experience. Some may simply be ready to create the powershell package and get Viva Connections deployed to take advantage of the app bar, search, and targeting, but others will need to prepare and should prepare. Here are some of the topics: – Get Your Intranet, Corporate Communications and Org News to Modern SharePoint Online – Design your Branding, Header/Footer, Site Design & Look Strategy – Design your Global Navigation, Information Architecture, and Hubs – Create and Deploy Powershell Package including Icons – Set your Root site and Official News – Manage your Taxonomy, M365 Groups, and Audience Targeting
Audience: Marketing, Communications, HR IT, IT Managers, Directors, Microsoft 365 Admins, and Teams Administrators Level: 100 & 200 Introduction and Assumes Basic Microsoft Teams Experience
Microsoft Viva. Viva is an employee experience platform that empowers people and teams to be their best, from anywhere.
Viva brings together communications, insights, knowledge, and learning within the flow of everyday work and collaboration, in Microsoft Teams.
Microsoft Teams is where most remote and hybrid work happens these days. And, Teams has become a hub where we can bring all these resources together into an integrated system of engagement – what Gartner calls a new work nucleus or digital workplace hub.
Importantly, with Microsoft 365 we already have foundational capabilities in each of these areas like Yammer, SharePoint, Stream, Workplace Analytics, Microsoft Search, LinkedIn, Glint and more.
Microsoft Viva builds on this foundation by adding innovative new services and insights focused on people development and success.
Connections is a company branded employee app in Teams. It is a gateway to your employee experience, with personalized news, communications, tasks, people and resources. It provides a single curated employee destination that can be configured for specific roles like frontline workers. So, leaders can communicate and engage their employees, and employees can get easy access to the tools and resources they need from one place.. Connections builds on existing capabilities in Microsoft 365 like SharePoint and Yammer. And it pulls your communications together into a pre-configured app in Teams, designed for both desktop and mobile workers. It also acts as a launching pad to the other 3 Viva modules
Insights brings together Workplace Analytics, MyAnalytics and Glint into a unified insights app in Teams to provide data-driven and privacy-protected insights for individuals, managers and leaders. For example, employees get personalized insights, only they can see, that help them protect their time for breaks, focused work, and learning in order to promote improved productivity and wellbeing.
Topics focuses on knowledge and expertise. Topics applies AI to identify knowledge and experts and organize them into shared topics. AI automatically creates a topic page for each topic. It’s like Wikipedia for the enterprise where AI does the first draft. And these topic pages are surfaced as Topic Cards right in the flow of work in Office and Teams.
Finally, Learning allows employees to easily discover informal and formal learning in the flow of work. It aggregates content from LinkedIn Learning, Microsoft Learn and 3rd party training content and your own organizations content – all in one place. Along with providing aggregation and recommendations, it also allows managers to assign and track training, as well as report on training within and across teams.
Planning Your Migration to SharePoint Online #SPBiz60Christian Buckley
Session from SPBiz.com online event on June 18th, 2015. It’s always best to begin with a plan, and this session will provide a framework for developing your own migration plan.

Building Modern Intranets With SharePoint & TeamsJoy Apple
A lot has changed since Microsoft began recommending flat information architecture for modern SharePoint intranets.
In this session we’ll discuss:
- 3 dimensional intranets
- The advantages of flat information architecture
- How hub sites provide consistent navigation, content rollups, and visitor permissions
- How Teams connected team sites play a role in the intranet
- Using Yammer for Communities
SharePoint hub sites are a new building block for your intranet, to bring together related sites to roll up news and activity, to simplify search, and to create cohesion with shared navigation and look-and-feel -- ultimately giving your business the flexibility and agility to dynamically grow and respond to the changes in business, without rigid silos, helping bind a more cohesive workforce moving forward in the same direction.
This presentation sets both context of how SharePoint hub sites compliment your intranet, and describes the features and functionality and the scenarios they support.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.

328. Features - collaboration functionality, and only a subset. One site per customer, no wikis, no blogs, no surveys, no flexible views on things like calendar and task lists, no WSS alerts or RSS feeds (although they have some sort of custom alert infrastructure), completely custom and non customizable document collaboration UI. No portal functionality, no search, no workflow, no BI, no content management, no forms. SharePoint Online is about bringing SharePoint and all its power and flexibility for collaboration and intranet functionality (ultimately) to you as a service. Targeting mid-market and enterprises.
329.
330. 9 layers of data security as described in BPOS core deck as well as SharePoint Online core deck.
331. When do you expect to have the "futures" from the Feature Comparison data which they provided us?
332. Expectation is to provide many of the futures as part of the 10.1 release (WAVE 14 based).
333. What, if any, impact to the cost will there be when those "futures" are built into the shared service?
334. The customer will be upgraded to the new release. At this point, we expect minimal impact.
335. The service description describes a 20 site collection limit. If this flexible and how have other customers constructed their taxonomy around it?
336. We have discussed being flexible on this limit. If the need exists, we would need to understand the intended use and the customer would need to understand some performance issues around the portals. This is a case-by-case option that has not come up yet.
337. What is the process for restoring a site collection with your service? How long does it take to complete a restore request generally? Is back-up/restore defined at the site collection level, or at a more granular our coarse level?
338.
339. You can create site collection administrators that can only administer a single site collection or even sub site. The enterprise admin, however has control over everything.
340. Can we provide URLs in SharePoint that link outside? I am assuming they have any firewall issues containing URLs (like a Notes links to one of our Notes DB)
341. This should work. Clicking on an external link in a SharePoint online page will take you to that external site.
342. Custom workflows are vague...can they provide specifics of what's in and what's out
343. Any workflow that you can create via SharePoint designer that doesn’t require the use of custom code on the server side is supported. We also include the three-stage out of the box workflow
349. The challenge with redirecting through their routers, etc. is the SSL certificate. If your browser thinks you’re at Contoso.com and the certificate is for Contoso.sharepoint.microsoftonlne.com then you will get an alert. I have not heard of a successful solution here yet, but perhaps there is a solution.
351. We do support custom workflows. However, if the question is about connections to on-premises business data sources, the answer is that customer would have to have a partner build a on-premises tool to pump the data into the service using a trusted subsystem model. We cannot reach into the customer site and pull the data.
352. What is the file size allowed in SharePoint Online Standard?
As a company, our journey started with success in the desktop software, and in the past decade, we have become a leading player in the enterprise software arena. And now, we are investing heavily to make these capabilities available online that can be experienced through multiple device types.Our vision is more than just software delivered over the internet or software experienced through a browser only. With Software + Services, our vision is to create an unique experience that combine software with the power of internet services that can be experienced across multiple device types. For example, depending on the device and scenario, services can be experienced through a rich client or a thin browser. The software can be delivered as a service or running out of your own datacenters or a combination of both.

The software can be delivered as a service or running out of your own datacenters or a combination of both.
To enable this vision, fundamental to our S+S approach is the idea of choice. We want to create a spectrum of capabilities that are tailored to different scenarios and customer needs. Our “Live” services are designed for individuals or small businesses which the end user is responsible for managing their service. For the IT Managed space, our business customers will have a choice to decide whether they want to experience our software capabilities as a “Online” service or continue to operate the software themselves to take advantage of the greatest set of controls and flexibility. We believe there are unique requirements in the IT managed space which are very different than the consumer space such as features, availability, compliance capabilities, SLA, etc. and also a different business model. Given the customer’s existing environment, we want to empower our IT Professional the ability to mix and match between online and on-premise software depending on the particular application, geography or end user roles. They can choose to move to Online as quickly as they like or stay with On-premise or a bit of both, it is entirely up to you.
Let’s now drill down on “Online” services. Online services is a set of enterprise class software delivered as subscription services hosted by Microsoft and sold through partners. Our goals is to create a service option for every one of our business software products. The initial set of services we are offering focus on the business productivity capabilities that includes Exchange Online, Office SharePoint Online, Office Live Meeting, Office Communications Online, Exchange Hosted Services and Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online. Exchange Hosted Services are attached services that include filtering, archiving, encryption and continuity. We plan to add many more Online services to this portfolio in the coming months.The Business Productivity Online Suite, shown here, includes Exchange Online, Office SharePoint Online, Office Communications Online, and Office Live Meeting. Office Communications Online is currently available as part of the dedicated offering and a multi-tenant offering of the service will be added in early 2009.
FedEx has developed a fast and convenient way for its customers to easily access some of FedEx’s most popular features found on fedex.com using the familiar tools of the Microsoft Office system. With FedEXQuickShip, customers can create and track US shipments, get rates, schedule pickups and find the nearest staffed FedEx location all from within Microsoft Outlook. It’s simple to use and it’s available for individuals, small businesses and the biggest enterprise. QuickShip is the first of many such solutions that FedEx plans to provide. It has exposed its services via the web and developers can extend these freely. FedEx has developed prototype integration with SharePoint Web Parts too. So that, for example, customers can “Print to FedEx Kinko’s” from with a SharePoint document library. What’s interesting with this approach is that the same technology underpins Office SharePoint Server, SharePoint Server Online and Office Live Small Business. As a result, with one solution, FedEx is able to address the needs of each of the business segments for which the SharePoint server is tailored.S+S attributes: multi-headed, deployment, composition, federation.

Customers can use SPD to create workflows, as long as these workflows use only the standard workflow actions that come with the product (i.e. no custom code workflow actions).The Tri-state workflow that comes out of the box with WSS is also enabled.Limitations:The out-of-the-box workflows that come with MOSS (Approval, Translation, Signatures, Expiration and Reporting) are NOT supported. The MOSS out-of-the-box workflows use InfoPath Forms Server and are not supported. “Design Once” Development ModelForms designers can design their forms once and deploy them for use both within the rich Office InfoPath 2007 client program and through a Web browser. Office Forms Server 2007 automatically converts the form into ASP.NET Web forms, with no additional work from the designer.Form Import WizardThe designer in Office InfoPath 2007 provides an easy way to convert forms designed in Microsoft Office Excel and Microsoft Office Word into rich Office InfoPath 2007 forms. The Form Import Wizard handles the conversion of form fields, repeating tables, rich text boxes, and other elements, dynamically generating the underlying XML structure for the new form.Integrated Deployment Model for “No-code” FormsThe Publish Wizard in Office InfoPath 2007 makes it easy to publish forms that do not have any managed code components to a Windows SharePoint Services library, while making the form available as a browser-based form at the same time.Compatibility CheckerThe Compatibility Checker helps forms designers validate those features that need to work across the broadest range of Web browsers.
Integrated, Flexible Spreadsheet PublishingMicrosoft Office Excel 2007 provides an integrated publishing experience that lets information workers easily choose what they want to share with others and determine how others can interact with published spreadsheets.Share, Manage, and Control SpreadsheetsShare business data broadly while maintaining control and helping to protect sensitive information. Provides access to spreadsheet data and analysis through server-calculated, interactive Microsoft Office Excel spreadsheets from a Web browser. Use these spreadsheets to maintain and efficiently share one centralized version of the truth while helping to protect any sensitive or proprietary information embedded in documents, such as financial models, by limiting access to portions of the spreadsheet and auditing their usage.Web-based Business Intelligence Using Excel ServicesExcel Services empowers spreadsheet authors to easily and broadly share spreadsheets that use the new Business Intelligence functionality through the browser. Fully interactive, data-bound spreadsheets including charts, tables, and PivotTable views can be created as part of a portal, dashboard, or business scorecard, without requiring any development.Data Connection LibrariesData Connection Libraries are centralized SharePoint document libraries that store Office Data Connections (ODC); ODCs describe connections to external data. Centralizing Office Data Connections makes it easier to share, manage, and discover data connections that can be used by any Microsoft Office program.Business Data CatalogThe Business Data Catalog (BDC) tightly integrates external data into the Office SharePoint Server 2007 user experience, providing access to external data residing within backed LOB applications, and enabling the display of and interaction with external data through a set of Business Data Web Parts.Business Data Web PartsUse SharePoint Business Data Web Parts for viewing lists, entities, and related information retrieved through the Business Data Catalog.Business Data ActionsWith no custom coding, easily create actions that open Web pages, display the user interfaces of LOB applications, launch InfoPath forms, and perform other common tasks. Use the convenient links that appear beside business objects returned from the Business Data Catalog.Integrated Business Intelligence DashboardsCreate rich, interactive business intelligence dashboards that assemble and display business information from disparate sources by using built-in Web parts such as dynamic KPIs, Excel spreadsheets, Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services reports, or a collection of business data connectivity Web Parts that can visualize information residing in backed LOB applications.Report CenterAn out-of-the-box site optimized for report access and management, including a report library, data connection library, and a dashboard template. These sites, hosted by the new Report Center, provide consistent management of reports, spreadsheets, and data connections.Key Performance IndicatorsKPIs communicate goals and status to drive results. Using the KPI Web Part, a user can create a KPI list within a Web Part page, without writing code. The KPI Web Part can display KPIs from Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services, Excel spreadsheets, SharePoint lists, or manually entered data.Filter Web Parts Filters enable dashboards to be personalized by communicating shared parameters among Web Parts on a dashboard. The parameters passed can be automatically applied based on user profiles, SharePoint lists, the BDC, manually entered information, and so forth.

Five key types of SharePoint customization: Web-Based UI Customizations - style sheets, HTML and web part customization SharePoint Designer - master pages, data view web part, workflows, XSLT, JavaScript InfoPath Forms Web Services - Interact with SharePoint files and data remotelyCustom Development - custom web parts, coded workflows (Not Supported)Use SharePoint designer to create and deploy no-code workflows, customize content types, taxonomy and branding via master pages and layouts, create and deploy site templates.Use the Data Form Web Part to create applications that mashup, filter, roll-up and render SharePoint data or data consumed from a Web Service (e.g. RSS feeds) in new ways.Use InfoPath to design forms for workflows, provided these forms are user-deployable (i.e. contain no custom code).Use the SharePoint Web Services to access and manipulate SharePoint data remotely.Site templates that don’t require custom code to be deployed on server are supportedCannot use inline code, build coded workflows, or develop InfoPath forms with coded business logic.Cannot deploy features, solutions, pluggable auth providers, Web Parts, site definitions, or anything else that has to be deployed and configured on the server.Cannot modify any SharePoint files, Web configuration settings, security policy, etc.Cannot make any farm-wide configuration changes (i.e. changes that must be made in Central Admin).Templates that require custom code to be deployed on server (such as Site Definition Templates) are not supported in V1
The purple boxes are the features which currently exist in our SharePoint Online standard product. The blue-green boxes are features we want to enable in future releases. As you can see here our first version already offers a great feature set such as Workflow support, Wikis, blogs, Search and publishing. In future releases we will invest in areas like Business Intelligence to enable Excel Services. Please note that none of the features in blue are committed yet.I am not going to go into details. This slide has a lot of information. Please use this slide as a feature reference.
When I talked about the data center initially, I was talking about how the data center is designed to make sure there will be no failures in providing service to our customers. Another aspect of the data center design is the physical security. We run a data center within a data center. There are motion sensors, 24.7 secured access, biometric controlled access systems, video camera surveillance, and security breach alarms.When you walk into a facility, it will likely come across as a fortress. There are barriers to make sure no one can drive a car into the data center. Mantraps in place to provide multiple levels of access controls as you go through the data center to make sure individuals not allowed into the facility are not allowed in. All of these things are designed and implemented, and MOS BPOS gets to take advantage of all of the great capabilities of Microsoft’s data centers.
Physical security is but one part it. When you look, we ultimately need to make sure that since we are providing an internet based service, we are protecting customer’s data in a variety of ways. We look at this as multiple layers of protection. Microsoft is actually providing 9 layers of logical security for our customers and their service and data. Filtering Routers: these are implemented to protect against any traffic we do not see as well constructed. One of the great benefits of providing a focused service like BPOS is we actually set up the routers to protect against any form of malform data. We block at an aggregate at the edge. Firewalls are set up as deny all. Behind the firewalls we have an Intrusion Detection System. We have a very sophisticated correlation engine for any intrusion alert that we’re tracking 24 hours a day. Below the IDS, we have a level System Level Security. When you look, the service operations organization actually has broad based, dual factor authentication. This means each individual within a support and service operations team have either some sort of secure ID card or a RSH secure ID token that is coupled with their role. Each individual must have a user ID and password and must apply a pin with their secure ID token. Based on the role they have, we grant access per individuals to the service. Application Authentication: when you get below the System Level Security, the customers actually have application level authentication. We have a very sophisticated mechanism by which we provide access to data. The structure of the service provides users access to only those capabilities they are designed to have. In the reseller model where a partner is actually providing the service to the customer, they have a level of application authentication that sits over top of that which the customers have. So we’re able to provide a very rich set of security protocols for our customers, as it relates to authentication to the different services.Microsoft, as most people know, has a good history as relates to security and trustworthy computing. Our services are actually designed to make sure that we apply those security methods not only to the software, but we also treat that software as a service. So when we do our threat walling and follow the Windows initiative, we’re thinking about our applications as if they are delivered through the Internet. We apply a significant level of counter measures, such as buffer overflows and SQL injection, we make sure that the applications we’re running are sandboxed so you can’t activate elevated levels of security or access a higher level of authentication when you’re actually doing work within our application. Virus Scanning is provided for multiple set of capabilities. We actually virus scan at all over our server levels, we have in place intrusion detection at the host and we’re scanning our content via Microsoft ForeFront.Then we have Separate Data Networks. When you look inside the data center, So what when we do our threat walling and follow the Windows initiative. These are implemented in a form that breaks it apart. For example, the data bases are on a separate sub net then from the actual content server or something that is an internet facing device.When you look, even though we are an internet facing service, very few devices have direct access to the internet. All of the servers are on some form of non-routable subnet space. Finally you are authenticated into the data. The data itself is never stored on the physical servers, we run separate data networks and the data is stored on dedicated storage devices. So when you look at the content, the content is actually being sent from dedicated storage devices, which allows us to provide significant levels of backup as well.
Once we layered our data center practices in place, we’re actually deploying for our Business Productivity Online Suite in a number of locations. Because service is still in its infancy, we’ve only deployed in two locations in North America at this time. Ultimately, we will be replicating this model in other Microsoft data centers across the world.
Microsoft Online Services offers two options, Standard and Dedicated. Today, Standard is available only in the US but in early 2009 will be available more widely. Your account manager can provide you with the latest roadmap. If your business has less than 5000 seats and cost efficiency and getting up and running with the greatest possible speed is a key focus for your IT department, Standard is the right service. Standard may also be the right service if you have more than 5000 seats, unless you need advanced server features or a dedicated environment. A dedicated hardware environment requires the Dedicated service option. Due to the higher cost, the dedicated option is optimized for customers over 20,000+ seats but with a minimum of 5000 seats purchased.
In our first release, there will be feature gaps between our standard and dedicated service with our on-premises server features. Overall time, we will have server feature parity except for the case of deskless workers. In general, our dedicated option will be able to provide a broader array of capabilities especially in the case of SharePoint.
Unsupported Features:Cannot approve or create workflowsNo read/write access to Business Intelligence Dashboards and KPIs People search – what shows up for a DW since a DW has no my site? DWs should show up in people search results, but DWs should not be able to access search center to do people searches? We need to figure out what (if any) click-through they should have on DW people that appear in the people search. I think DWs should be able to access the search center to find people. Search is limited to SP data. No search across enterprise content sources. We may be able to restrict some content through ACLs and use security trimming, but it could be complex to manage.

Our licensing model is designed to simplify the choice between on-premises and online. Our service is licensed on a per user basis. Customers who currently have purchased the Client Access License (CAL) with Software Assurance will only have to pay “Step-Up” fee as opposed to the users that doesn’t have the license having to pay the full fee. In addition, customer who purchased the service license called “User Subscription License (USL)” will also have license rights to access applications deployed on premises. For example, if SharePoint Online users will also have the CAL rights to access site hosted in a on-premises SharePoint server.
