Why Is SharePoint Still So Hard? by Michal Pisarek - SPTechConSPTechCon
The document discusses why SharePoint projects often fail. It identifies key reasons as a lack of focus on people over technology, poor resources like experts claiming expertise beyond their skills, and a lack of clear vision and alignment in organizations. It emphasizes that SharePoint is about changing how people work, not just giving them new tools, and that successful implementations require understanding users and change management.

Same but Different - Developing for SharePoint Online -- SPSSTLJohn Ferringer
Silverlight. Sandbox Solutions. JavaScript. The Client Object Model. These are components or features that can all be leveraged by developers in an on premises SharePoint environment, as well as Microsoft’s cloud offering for SharePoint: SharePoint Online. But while these similarities exist between the two SharePoint worlds, at the same time they’re vastly different. In on premises SharePoint environments, developers have many other appealing options to choose from that can make customization much easier and smoother than these client-side developer tools.
The difference in the cloud with SharePoint Online is that developers can’t choose other easier options over Sandbox Solutions, JavaScript, or the Client Object Model. In SharePoint Online’s world it’s Microsoft’s way or the highway, and that means that software designers and developers have to approach solution design and creation in a much different manner than for on premises custom solutions.
This class presents a comprehensive review of the tools and features available for development with SharePoint Online and then takes a closer look at their capabilities and limitations. It also explains the shift in decision making and solution design that needs to occur to turn SharePoint Online’s restrictions into opportunities, as well as looks at other available resources for development with SharePoint Online, such as Microsoft’s Azure offering or Amazon’s Cloud Services.
This 40 minute webinar will cover the features in SharePoint 2010 that make it an excellent tool for business collaboration. We will examine how SharePoint 2010 helps you deal with changing business needs and manage IT costs and complexity.

The world of corporate learning is moving toward the 70+20+10% model. This suggests about 70% of learning happens on the job, 20% via feedback from colleagues and peers and 10% in formal training. SharePoint is one of the key enablers of this move, with its widespread use for blogging, wikis and document repositories. Assessments (quizzes, surveys, tests and exams) are a critical part of learning—helping diagnose what you need to learn, giving feedback on learning, measuring and reinforcing what you have learned. Assessments are also useful in SharePoint for those using it for more formal training and also to keep track of compliance with regulations within SharePoint.

This document provides an overview of enterprise application integration (EAI), including definitions, objectives, components, advantages, and examples. EAI involves integrating independently developed applications that may use different technologies. It has become a priority for many companies and is expected to be a $50 billion market by 2001. Key components of EAI solutions include business rule/logic modules, data acquisition interfaces/adapters, development tools, message brokers, and system control/management tools. Examples demonstrate how EAI can integrate e-commerce sites with legacy systems to share order and customer data.
Enterprise Application Integration TechnologiesPeter R. Egli
Overview of Enterprise Application Integration Technologies.
Enterprise Application Integration, or EAI in short, aims at integrating different applications into an IT application landscape. Traditionally, EAI was understood as using the same communication infrastructure by all applications without service-orientation in mind. This meant that the benefits of a shared infrastructure were limited while driving up costs through additional integration platforms.
Service Oriented Architectures (SOA) brought a new paradigm by decomposing applications into reusable and shareable services. Service orientation requires careful design of services. A hierarchic scheme of services may help to define a suitable service decomposition.
While SOA is technically based on big web service technologies, namely SOAP, WSDL and BPEL, WOA or Web Oriented Architecture stands for the lightweight service paradigm. WOA makes use of REST-based technologies like JSON and HTTP.
In many cases, an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) is used as an infrastructure element to achieve the technical integration of the services. The ESB core functions like message routing, filtering and transformation provide the mediation services required to integrate heterogeneous application landscapes.

The document contains an agenda and presentation materials for a SharePoint 2010 preparedness forum for business stakeholders. The presentation covers the business case for upgrading to SharePoint 2010, key new features, system requirements, licensing, and considerations for upgrading from SharePoint 2007. It emphasizes targeting the business needs and benefits rather than just the technical capabilities when making the case to stakeholders.
Microsoft SharePoint 2010 is the Business Collaboration Platform for the Enterprise and Web. SharePoint 2010 focuses on three key areas:
1) Connecting and empowering people to enhance productivity by offering improved and simplified tools to create and manage sites and associated content. Microsoft SharePoint 2010 integrates smoothly with Microsoft Office 2010 which makes it possible for users to be more productive while using a more familiar set of tools to interact with SharePoint Server.
2) Unifying infrastructure to cut maintenance and training costs by providing an integrated set of features and the ability for organizations to build their business productivity solutions on top of the SharePoint Server.
3) Responding rapidly to business needs by providing the ability to quickly build and deploy dynamic solutions to end users, power users and professional developers. SharePoint 2010 provides the tools to easily create business solutions that can be integrated with existing data and process.
Described by Microsoft as the Business Collaboration Platform for Enterprise and the web, there are so many ways SharePoint 2010 can add value to your organisation. Launched officially on May 12, we take the covers off SharePoint 2010 and share its highlights with you.

Aspect Software Sponsored What Nintex Workflow 2010 Adds To Share Point 2010Timothy Strudeman
Nintex Workflow 2010 adds significant workflow functionality to SharePoint 2010 that is not included out of the box or with other Microsoft products like SharePoint Designer or Visio. It allows designing and managing workflows entirely within SharePoint with an easy to use graphical interface. It also provides tools to track and analyze workflow performance, secure workflow design and deployment, reuse workflows, and connect to external systems. In summary, Nintex Workflow enables much more powerful and "real world" workflow logic and management capabilities for SharePoint compared to the native and other Microsoft options.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Incorrect targeting
Says geek to CTO/Business stakeholder “…IT can do all these
weird and wonderful things”
…(The Geek can‟t wait to show of f all the fancy new features
which will „impress‟ the business stakeholder)
….(The Geek launches into detailed demonstration of how XYZ
works, completely bypassing any related „business‟ benefits)
Says stakeholder to geek “but I still don‟t understand how it‟s
going to benefit my business – where are my cost savings?”
The Geek seems confused, “but I just showed you how it
works, what more do you need?”
CTO/Business stakeholder, “but where are the real business
benefits? What will IT do that my current system does not
do?”…

Kathy Hughes
21. MOVING FORWARD: UPGRADE PREP
MUST be running SharePoint Server 2007 SP2 + October 2009
CU or greater
Run the pre-upgrade check
Included in the SharePoint Server 2007 SP2 + October CU updates
the pre-upgrade check STSADM command
Backup and document all existing customizations
Perform special backups of existing content databases
Establish a test environment
Mirror your existing production environment
TEST TEST TEST
Review any existing 3 rd party tools currently in use and check
with vendors about upgrade plans
This could seriously impact the timing around when you upgrade!!
Which upgrade path works best for you?
Kathy Hughes
22. UPGRADE PATHS
In-place upgrade
Use existing hardware
Farm will be offline during upgrade process
(most) Customizations will be available post-upgrade
Farm-wide settings preserved
This approach is recommended for small or non-productive
environments
There is no rollback when using an in-place upgrade – no „un-do‟
button
Requires a solid DR strategy
Other reasons for in-place upgrade include where you want to
upgrade existing SharePoint site templates, i.e. deprecated STP
template format and upgrade to new 2010 WSP format
Kathy Hughes
23. UPGRADE PATHS (CONTINUED)
Database attach upgrade
Detach existing 2007 databases and attach to a new 2010 farm
No existing (2007) server farm settings will be maintained
Requires existing settings to be documented and recreated in new
environment
This approach is recommended where farm level configurations are
minimal!
A prime example is where you have 100‟s of SharePoint audiences
configured in your current 2007 farm and lots of content targets
associated with those audiences. Those audiences and targets will need to
be recreated on the destination 2010 farm.
Kathy Hughes
24. POST-UPGRADE MAINTENANCE
Visual upgrade – initially the SharePoint 2007 look and feel
will remain until you choose to switch to the 2010 UI -
gradual upgrade
Some assemblies may need to be recompiled
Timer jobs for any custom workflows may need to be
recompiled
Check any pre-existing site templates, i.e. the STP format is
deprecated in 2010 and replaced by WSP format
Check any custom themes – 2007 themes are deprecated in
2010 though 2007 themes are installed on 2010 WFE for
legacy purposes
Won‟t work once you switch the UI to 2010 look and feel
Any existing queries which query greater than 5000 items will
fail and you will need to modify those queries
3 rd party upgrades – check with vendors
Kathy Hughes
25. MOVING FORWARD: PLAN OF ATTACK
Infrastructure – server and OS levels
People – get key stakeholders involved
