Both?How many users are you anticipating?Availability and RecoveryWhat type of SLA’s will you have on downtime?How often will you be backing up your SharePoint environment (RPO/RTO)Will some sites in your structure have different recovery objectives than others?

- #9 MichaelThe first and most critical part of the implementation of SharePoint is actually gathering information about how everyone is going to use the solution. Gather a Governance team and discover each areas pain points or objectives that they have for a successful SharePoint implementation.Understand all of the different areas of SharePoint that will need to be implemented. Where is content currently storedWho owns the contentHow will other want to find that contentHow will different areas in your organization use SharePoint?Will they want to use workflow processes and document managementWill they be heavily dependent on document storage and searchability?Will they use it primarily for team collaboration? Will there be a need for integrating different applications with SharePoint?
- #10 MichaelWho will need to access the SharePoint implementation?Only internal people (domain users)?External Contractors/Partners?External Domain Users/Employees?How many people do you anticipate that will access the environment?This will point to how your physical farm will need to be constructed and also other security considerations.This will also be good time to figure out what you have to license and how many licenses you will need.Availability and RecoveryDoes your organization have any standard SLA’s that you will have to abide by?Examples would be:SharePoint only needs to be available between 6am and 10pm during the workday.SharePoint needs to be available within 2 hours of a downtime event.SharePoint needs to be recovered to specific point in time.How often will you need to backup your environment?Recovery Point Objective = How often will you be backing up your system? (The more granular the more expensive usually)Recovery Time Objective = How quickly will you be able to recover the system in event of a failure? (The faster the more expensive usually)Will different sites need different recovery objectives or SLAs? One department may only need Document storage with slight interaction with SharePoint on a daily basisAnother department (Accounting/HR) might be crippled if they are not able to access their content within an hour of an event.

- #12 MichaelThere are really a few different strategies as to what type of site structure you can build.FunctionalGenerally builds out function based areas regardless of department or division. It will usually end up being a wider set of sites than deep.As the business or company changes it is usually easy to adapt.Divisional/DepartmentalThis is how most organizations view their structure.It is completely based on the structure of the company and how the internal hierarchy of the company is formed.This can and usually does get to be a very deep structure that can affect search results and how search sees a piece of contents relevancy.This can be difficult to change as the business or company changes.HybridFor organizations that don’t or can’t fit in one structure or the other generally a middle ground can be found by merging the best of the two concepts.
