• Office Web Apps is no longer a service application• Web Analytics is no longer service application, it’s part of
search• New service applications available and improvements on
existing ones– App Management Service – Used to manage the new SharePoint app
store from the Office Marketplace or the Application Catalog– SharePoint Translation Services – provides for language translation of
Word, XLIFF, and PPT files to HTML– Work Management Service – manages tasks across SharePoint, MS
Exchange and Project.– Access Services App (2013) – Replaces 2010 version of Access Services
What’s new in Infrastructure for SharePoint 2013
Changes in Service Applications and New Service Applications
![Page 6: Sharing the Point South America 2013 (STPSA) - Ultimate SharePoint Infrastructure Best Practices Session](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/54c220b94a7959fd618b459a/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• A new Windows service – the Distributed Cache Service – is installed on each server in the farm when SharePoint is installed
• It is managed via the Services on Server page in central admin as the Distributed Cache service
• The config DB keeps track of which machines in the farm are running the cache service
What’s new in Infrastructure for SharePoint 2013
Distributed Cache Service
![Page 7: Sharing the Point South America 2013 (STPSA) - Ultimate SharePoint Infrastructure Best Practices Session](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/54c220b94a7959fd618b459a/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
• The purpose of the Request Management feature is to give SharePoint knowledge of and more control over incoming requests
• Having knowledge over the nature of incoming requests – for example, the user agent, requested URL, or source IP – allows SharePoint to customize the response to each request
• RM is applied per web app, just like throttling is done in SharePoint 2010
What’s new in Infrastructure for SharePoint 2013
Request Management (RM)
![Page 8: Sharing the Point South America 2013 (STPSA) - Ultimate SharePoint Infrastructure Best Practices Session](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/54c220b94a7959fd618b459a/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
• Option 1 (AD Import): Simple one-way Sync (a la SharePoint 2007)
• Option 2: Two-way, possible write-back to AD options using small FIM service on UPA server (a la 2010)
• Option 3: Full Forefront Identity Manager (FIM) Synchronization, allows for complex scenarios – Larger clients will appreciate this
What’s new in Infrastructure for SharePoint 2013
User Profile Sync – Three Options for Deployment
![Page 9: Sharing the Point South America 2013 (STPSA) - Ultimate SharePoint Infrastructure Best Practices Session](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/54c220b94a7959fd618b459a/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
• SharePoint 2013 continues to offer support for both claims and classic authentication modes
• However claims authentication is THE default authentication option now– Classic authentication mode is still there, but can only be
managed in PowerShell – it’s gone from the UI – Support for classic mode is deprecated and will go away in a
future release– There also a new process to migrate accounts from
Windows classic to Windows claims – the Convert-SPWebApplication cmdlet
What’s new in Infrastructure for SharePoint 2013
Claims-based Authentication - Default

• Stores new versions of documents as ‘shredded BLOBs that are deltas of the changes
• Promises to reduce storage size significantly
What’s new in Infrastructure for SharePoint 2013
Shredded Storage
![Page 11: Sharing the Point South America 2013 (STPSA) - Ultimate SharePoint Infrastructure Best Practices Session](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/54c220b94a7959fd618b459a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• New Search architecture (FAST based) with one unified search
• Personalized search results based on search history
• Rich contextual previews
What’s new in Infrastructure for SharePoint 2013
Search – FAST Search now included

ARCHITECTING THE FARM
![Page 13: Sharing the Point South America 2013 (STPSA) - Ultimate SharePoint Infrastructure Best Practices Session](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/54c220b94a7959fd618b459a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Web
Service Apps
Data
Architecting the Farm
Three Layers of SharePoint Infrastructure
![Page 14: Sharing the Point South America 2013 (STPSA) - Ultimate SharePoint Infrastructure Best Practices Session](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/54c220b94a7959fd618b459a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• ‘All-in-One’ (Avoid)
DB and SP Roles Separate
Architecting the Farm
Small Farm Models
![Page 15: Sharing the Point South America 2013 (STPSA) - Ultimate SharePoint Infrastructure Best Practices Session](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/54c220b94a7959fd618b459a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• 2 SharePoint Servers running Web and Service Apps
• 2 Database Servers (AlwaysOn FCI or AlwaysOn Availability Groups)
• 1 or 2 Index Partitions with equivalent query components
• Smallest farm size that is fully highly available
Architecting the Farm
Smallest Highly Available Farm
![Page 16: Sharing the Point South America 2013 (STPSA) - Ultimate SharePoint Infrastructure Best Practices Session](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/54c220b94a7959fd618b459a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• 2 Dedicated Web Servers (NLB)
• 2 Service Application Servers
• 2 Database Servers (Clustered or Mirrored)
• 1 or 2 Index Partitions with equivalent query components
Architecting the Farm
Best Practice ‘Six Server Farm’
![Page 17: Sharing the Point South America 2013 (STPSA) - Ultimate SharePoint Infrastructure Best Practices Session](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/54c220b94a7959fd618b459a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• Separate farm for Service Applications
• One or more farms dedicated to content
• Service Apps are consumed cross-farm
• Isolates ‘cranky’ service apps like User Profile Sync and allows for patching in isolation
Architecting the Farm
Ideal – Separate Service App Farm + Content Farm(s)
![Page 18: Sharing the Point South America 2013 (STPSA) - Ultimate SharePoint Infrastructure Best Practices Session](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/54c220b94a7959fd618b459a/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• Multiple Dedicated Web Servers
• Multiple Dedicated Service App Servers
• Multiple Dedicated Query Servers
• Multiple Dedicated Crawl Servers, with multiple Crawl DBs to increase parallelization of the crawl process
• Multiple distributed Index partitions (max of 10 million items per index partition)
• Two query components for each Index partition, spread among servers
Architecting the Farm
Large SharePoint Farms
![Page 19: Sharing the Point South America 2013 (STPSA) - Ultimate SharePoint Infrastructure Best Practices Session](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/54c220b94a7959fd618b459a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Allows organizations that wouldn’t normally be able to have a test environment to run one
Allows for separation of the database role onto a dedicated server Can be more easily scaled out in the future
Sample 1: Single Server Environment
SP Server Virtualization
![Page 21: Sharing the Point South America 2013 (STPSA) - Ultimate SharePoint Infrastructure Best Practices Session](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022081602/54c220b94a7959fd618b459a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
High-Availability across Hosts
All components Virtualized
Sample 2: Two Server Highly Available Farm
SP Server Virtualization

Multiple farm support, with DBs for all farms on the SQL AOAG
Sample 3: Mix of Physical and Virtual Servers

• Processor (Host Only)– <60% Utilization = Good– 60%-90% = Caution– >90% = Trouble
• Available Memory – 50% and above = Good– 10%-50% = OK– <10% = Trouble
• Disk – Avg. Disk sec/Read or Avg. Disk sec/Write– Up to 15ms = fine– 15ms-25ms = Caution– >25ms = Trouble
• Network Bandwidth – Bytes Total/sec– <40% Utilization = Good– 41%-64% = Caution– >65% = Trouble
• Network Latency - Output Queue Length– 0 = Good– 1-2= OK– >2 = Trouble
