SharePoint Administration | SharePoint 2007 Platform Architecture and Administration Training |
Understand SharePoint Server 2007 platform architecture from the Operating System to Application Layers.
This course is for Solution Architects, IT Managers, System Administrators, Software Architects and Engineers who will be responsible for managing and administering MOSS 2007 infrastructure. MOSS 2007 Platform Architecture and Design Understand SharePoint Server 2007 platform architecture from the Operating System to Application Layers.
Install and Configure Enterprise MOSS 2007 Server Farm Learn How to Setup, Install and Configure Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 an enterprise 3-Tier server farm following the best practices. Understand How Office SharePoint Server 2007 deployment is useful for small and medium organizations that want to minimize server, network and storage administrative overhead, but need the scalability of a 3-tier topology and the flexibility of future scalability options. Because many are looking for prescriptive best practices on building SharePoint Server 2007 server farms, including preparing SQL Server, we will have some discussions surrounding farm topologies and SQL Server performance. These will be conversational in tone, and will be scenario-driven by your own questions and suggestions.
Enterprise SharePoint Server Farm Wide Administration Application Management Creation and management of SharePoint Web applications in Central Administration following best practices. Administrative functions that you can use to configure from the application management interface also are discussed
Shared Services Providers Creation and management of SSP Web applications in Central Administration following best practices. The associated administrative functions that you can use to configure from the SSP application management interface to enable an enterprise MOSS 2007 deployment.
Enterprise Information Architecture One of the most fundamental design elements in a successful Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 implementation is the underlying information architecture. Information architecture provides a common, well-understood framework for the arrangement of data. A well-considered information architecture includes how data will be structured and divided, as well as how it will be presented to and navigated by users. In this session, we will review some key implementation motivators, architectural concepts, and lessons learned from some of the larger, more complex implementations performed
Enterprise Intranet Collaboration and Team Portals There are many architectural choices for collaboration in SharePoint. Should you use one site collection with many subsites, or separate site collections for each enterprise collaboration environment? In this session, we discuss when to use site collections and subsites/sites, the role of site templates and site definitions, and how to handle rollups and navigation. You’ll also see best practices for increasing the “findability” of collaboration sites and portals. How Office SharePoint Server can provide those services encompassing several technologies to present a well-rounded and flexible portal that can meet your various requirements and needs. You also learn how to design and implement the three primary functions of a portal with the enhancements provided by SharePoint Server 2007.
Content Types and Features Architected properly and implemented efficiently following the best practices, content types will successfully fuel your MOSS 2007 implementation for the future. Done correctly and thoughtfully, content types positively impact security, consistency, organization of data, business intelligence, where and how data surfaces, templates, workflow, information policies. Building blocks of SharePoint 2007 are Content Types and Features. Learn how to create, administrate, and implement content types and Features following best practices. Content types present a consistent message, hasten user acceptance, promote MOSS creativity, and allow for growth of organizations. They empower users yet provide stability to the infrastructure.
Enterprise Search Architecture and Best Practices Successfully administer, configure, and deploy a robust search and indexing environment in SharePoint Server 2007 following the best practices. Successful search strategies will include at least some basic customizations but the focus must remain on ease of use and useful results. This session will cover search design considerations and best practices in implementing the feature for which SharePoint is best known: Search. We will also introduce some uses which will have your mind racing with the possibilities.
Enterprise Search Administration Successfully administer Enterprise Search and Indexing. How to build content sources, how to view results, give an overview of the new Search Center, illustrate how to improve and manage relevance, and make other configuration decisions based on best practices.
SharePoint Workflows Workflow in SharePoint is an exciting new capability. However, it is a capability that is often misunderstood when it comes to the impact it has on your environment. For small environments, the out-of-the-box settings, configurations and architectural approach are probably sufficient. But what about an environment that will be processing thousands of documents per day? How can you make sure that those environments will not falter under the load, but still meet SLA’s for performance and responsiveness? This session will explore why focusing on your workflow subsystem is important, and cover the needs of a large scale workflow environment from the farm level down to individual workflow design specifications. Learn why all workflows need to be looked at in light of performance and scalability as well as how to build workflows that scale in an environment that scales, monitor workflow processing and overcome common obstacles. we explore how to automate common business tasks without programming, such as document review and approval using SharePoint, InfoPath Forms Services, browser-based forms and Windows Workflow. Participants learn to use the preconfigured workflow templates and how to design simple custom workflows.
Document Management Customize and manage document libraries including adding content types, workflows, and versioning following the best practices and information architecture.
Records Management Plan, design and learn how to implement an enterprise level SOX compliant document and records management and document retention platform for your company Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007.
Web Authoring and Publishing Web Content Management (Publishing) is a new capability added to SharePoint in the 2007 release. Following in the footsteps of Content Management Server 2002 the WCM capabilities of SharePoint offer a variety of customization opportunities for the developer or designer. But as with most new technologies it has taken time for Best Practices to emerge. In this session we’ll discuss customization Best Practices in the areas of branding, accessibility, field controls, layout pages, workflow, document conversion, and deployment. Along the way we’ll also suggest some guidelines for when to use SharePoint Designer and when to use Visual Studio to complete those customizations.
Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity If Server 2007 is a critical component in an organization’s infrastructure, it is imperative to properly plan, design, implement, and maintain a data protection, recovery, and availability plan. Simply backing up and restoring via Central Administration is insufficient to fully restore data in all but the simplest implementations. Because SharePoint Server 2007 usually consists of multiple, interconnected systems and dependencies, we will focus on the planning and designing processes first, and then focus on the individual components that make up a SharePoint Server 2007 server farm. The following topics will be presented: Planning for recovery and availability, Designing for high availability, Backup and restore strategies, and Recovering from disasters.
InfoPath Forms Services, Excel Services and Business Intelligence Microsoft InfoPath 2007 forms can be published to document libraries in SharePoint Server Technology Driven Business Solutions 2007. These forms are then hosted by Forms Services within SharePoint Server 2007. How IT professionals and business analysts can drive business value they can bring to their organization with Microsoft Office InfoPath Forms Services, Excel Services & Business Intelligence (KPIs) and now need to understand the technical details on how to actually get it done. These forms are then hosted by Forms Services within SharePoint Server 2007.
