Some brief thoughts about the new proposed model of sharepoint apps.

1. SharePoint Apps:
A (very) brief

2. SharePoint has a
MARKET at last

3. Apps can be published in the OFFICE STORE
SUPPORTED both ON PREMISE & OFFICE 365
Code DOESN’T RUN INSIDE SharePoint
Each App has its OWN set of PERMISSIONS

4. A NEW SharePoint WAY to write
your code (in case you thought there were not
enough ways yet)

5. Microsoft is PUSHING us in this direction: Apps RUNNING
CODE OUTSIDE SharePoint
A personal opinión, though: Serious ENTERPRISE-LEVEL
SharePoint DEVELOPMENT will still be shipped as FARM
SOLTIONS or SANDBOXED SOLUTIONS

6. APPS build a convenience marriage
with SHAREPOINT…. (They know that the
other exists, but they don’t touch themselves anyway)

7. A TENNANT is REQUIRED in order TO INSTALL Apps
Apps run on its OWN worker PROCESS
TWO dedicated SERVICE APPLICATIONS are also needed
(App Management & Site Subscription)

8. CHOOSEthe right approach accordingto
your project SPECIFICATIONS and
deployment goals

9. SharePoint FARM SOLUTION with complete access to the
object model
Restricted server access with a SharePoint SANDBOX
SOLUTION
HOSTED SharePoint APP (Provider-Hosted or Auto-Hosted)
ON-PREMISE SharePoint APP

In the end it remains SharePoint, so probably you already
love it or hate it….
