Congratulations!
o You’re the new SharePoint Administrator!!!o But…o You’re still responsible for:
• Exchange• Active Directory• SQL• Desktop• Help Desk• Network/Firewall• Cooking & Cleaning• Etc.

The Dilemma
o SharePoint administration is often an ‘add-on’ for other IT professionals (SQL DBAs, AD Admins, Exchange Engineers)
o Time and focus are scarce resources!o Common pain points include
• Upgrades are complex and hard to monitor• Dispersed workforce, little control of browsers and Office versions• Hard to understand and troubleshoot “behind the scenes”
performance and capacity planning• Best practices not always understood or compared to system
health• “All or nothing” administration means IT must be engaged for all
admin responsibilities, even search
Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 … the bright frontier

Platform Basics
• SharePoint 2010 is a 64 bit only platform. Direct upgrades from 32 bit servers to 64 bit servers require prep work.
• Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2008 R2 X64
• SQL Server 2005 x64 SP3 CU3
Or
• SQL Server 2008 x64 SP1 CU2
• May also need KB971831 - support token authentication without transport security or message encryption in WCF

Shared Service Applications
• The 2007 Shared Services Provider has been broken up; each of its elements is now a Shared Service Application
• Mix and match them singly or in groups, to match farm’s needs. [No need to deploy Visio Services if you don’t use it.]
• Crawl/index no longer a single server role
• In 2010, administration can be delegated– Key targets: Enterprise search,
metadata, user profiles

Twitterhashtag: #kmasp2010 Twitter hashtag:
Managed Metadata Service
• Centralized shared hierarchies of tags and terms [taxonomy]
• Centralized governance of user-created keywords [folksonomy]
• Centralized sharing and publication of content types throughout the enterprise

Client/Browser Technology
• Internet Explorer 7/8, Firefox and Safari are all supported.
• IE6 is not supported, so IT shops that had been deferring that upgrade should plan accordingly.
• Most other browsers are still supported for Internet configurations
• Office 2010 includes optimizations for the new platforms• Offline Access
– 2007: used Outlook 2007 and Groove– SharePoint Workspace 2010 integrates offline documents and
lists

Office Web Applications
• SharePoint 2010 provides a server version of Office applications – Office Web Access, or “OWA”.
• In part, this enables simultaneous multiuser editing of Office documents:
– Excel in OWA, not client
– Word/PowerPoint on client only if file opened from a shared document library
– OneNote client or OWA
