2. INTRODUCTION
Microsoft’s SharePoint is one of the oldest enterprise
solutions to be arriving in the web space. The prime intention
was to make the business processes much more robust with
simpler execution path.
From its initial version it has travelled quite a lot and has
delivered extensively. More than 28291 websites are making
use of it as per BuiltWith and this fact shows its popularity.

3. SHAREPOINT THE CLEAR LEADER
Sharepoint 2013 has been recently launched and much has
been explained about the future of SharePoint in the
conference held in the first week of February 2015. Its
document management supporting functionality is the part
which has made it globally popular.
More than 80% of the customers are using this only for this
attribute and this has been duly recorded by Microsoft and
much in-depth input has been given over this part. The
other parts which have been actively behind making it
popular are reporting feature, hosting apps, internet site,
publishing, social etc. according to the report shared by
Collbors.com.

5. THE NEED OF THE HOUR
Much of the robustness of the platform depends on the delivery
model and the developers related with the task. In most of the
cases it is seen that developers hired for the task of customizing
SharePoint application are merely software developers related
to other expertise zone. This does not save money as the
company with such hiring policy has to invest again to clear
their mess and make the work done.
This calls for dedicate SharePoint developer for any sort of
requirement related with the niche demanding the expert touch
of customization. With a full-time developer at your disposal
much of the works that require stringent discussion and
delivery model formulation can be executed perfectly and this
leads to no hiccups in the whole process. To make sure that one
gets the finest professional there are certain traits which are to
be looked over while hiring someone.

6. BENEFITS OF SHAREPOINT DEVELOPER
1. Training of strong security implementation. A general habit in developers without the
right security training is that they tend to take the data out of the SharePoint
environment to work upon. This is totally unsafe and hence someone with right training
would not be participating in such acts. Moving the data out of the zone puts them in
vulnerable condition.
2. Allotment of fixed Information sharing module. Technically a trained professional related
with SharePoint must be able to restrict the sharing of data through any medium such
as pen drive or email outside the SharePoint environment. This has to be ensured for
maintaining highest security measure.
3. Nonexistence of encryption. SharePoint's SQL database is unencrypted as encrypting
sometimes makes the process slow, but while doing a custom SharePoint application
development this part cannot be kept encrypted. Do consult with your team for doing
the same.
4. Understating of indexing setting. The indexing setting must be robust so that not a
single character more than intended comes out in the search result.
