requirements
• Outcome
– Inefficiencies in starting effective development

38. My Wish List For Install and
Configuration

• Early documentation release
• Clarity with better examples

40. True Farm Installation Wizard
• Targeted to Server Roles
– Hence mandatory services are selected for you
per server role

driven.
– SP 2003/2007 supported topology configuration
over browser

41. Now I am Too Greedy!!!!
• MS preaches do less custom in SP 2013 and
stay OOTB
• Lack True Global Navigation OOTB
• Lack OOTB Consistent Breadcrumb across CA
and Site Templates
• SP 2010 Hierarchical Nav control is hidden in
SP 2013
