10. 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

12. 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

13. 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

14. 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

15. 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

16. 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
