Deployment Scenarios

• Single Server• Remote SQL Server• Server Farm with Multiple Host Names

Deployment • Separate Active Directory Organization

Unit Deployment • Intranet and Extranet Deployment

Deployment ScenariosSingle Server

• Quickest way to get started with Windows SharePoint Services

• Default method will install and configure everything to get a working site up in minutes

• Two Options for Single Server:– Default method installs and configures MSDE.– Can also install to use existing

SQL Server 2000 with Service Pack 3

Deployment ScenariosRemote SQL Server

• Planning to host Large Number of Sites( > 1000)

• All databases hosted together and managed with SQL Server management tools

• WSS Server dedicated to serving pages and files to end users

• Specific configuration steps on Web Server and SQL Server needed before, during and after installation.

SQL 2000

WSS

Deployment ScenariosServer Farm with multiple host names

• Host several sites with the same IP Address• Sites have their own name

and content but share a single IP Address e.g.– sales.cygnus.com– marketing.cygnus.com– production.cygnus.com

• Advanced Scenario – Experienced server

Farm administrators– Internet Service Providers

• One of several hosting scenarios

Domain Controller

Deployment ScenariosSeparate Active Directory Organizational Unit

• Active Directory Account Creation Mode• Replaces local account creation feature of

SharePoint Team Services v1.0• Used if it is necessary to create new user

accounts rather than use existing Active Directory accounts.

• Web server must be part of a Windows 2000/2003Domain and must NOT bea Domain Controller

• Two Modes– Non-Scalable hosting mode– Scalable hosting mode

Deployment ScenariosIntranet and Extranet

• Provide the same content to both an Intranet and Extranet

• Achieved by having two virtual servers on two separate web server computers, one for Internal access and one for External access

• Both servers point to the samecontent database, whichis the key for makingthis scenario possible
