New Interface
Social in the Enterprise
with SharePoint 2013
SharePoint 2013 Yammer
•Publish from SharePoint to Yammer from the ribbon•Use Search to find results from both with Federated Search
There isn’t much integration OOB...
For those on Office 365, you will be able to replace the NewsFeed
link to your Yammer network
Yammer Integration
Microblogging
You can now use:
Mentions “@”Hashtags “#”
“Follow” and “Like”
SkyDrive (My Site) ≠ SkyDrive ≠ SkyDrive Pro
Only available on Windows with
O!ce 2013
O"ine Synchronization
If you have O!ce 2010,then you get
SharePoint WorkSpace
SkyDrive - Not SkyDrive Pro
Find your Sites
Find your Sites
I LOVE THIS!
Security presented as Sharing
Looking at the InfrastructureNo more User Profile Sync problems!
New Problems• The Distributed Cache Service
• Easy as a single server
• Di!cult when redundancy is required
• Requires PowerShell knowledge
• Needs a “Cache Cluster”
Microsoft recommends having a dedicated server (but with redundancy, that would mean 2 - ouch)
Community Site
New Site Template available with SharePoint 2013 Standard
Community Portal
A Site that aggregates all Community Sites!...Thanks to the new Search
Collaboration
Document Libraries
Lots of small upgrades that makes it a lot better
Document Libraries
Drag & Drop it!Not Perfect though...wait where’s my Metadata?
Document Libraries
Edit in DataSheet View got upgraded! You can now Create Columns
Document Libraries
Office Web Apps Integrated
O!ce Web Apps 2013 makes SharePoint 2013 even cooler! Document Previews right from your library.
Edit Page got better
Copy Paste from Word now maintains your styles 100% - AWESOME!
Code
No longer depend on the Content Editor WebPart - Much better for future upgrades
Videos on Pages
Play videos straight from your page in HTML5
Site Mailbox

Problems we’ve faced
•Hard if not impossible to see content from other lists/libraries on other Sites•Even worst for another Site Collection•XSLT!•Change the way resultsare shown•Contextual Results•Having to ask Admins forevery little thing..queries•And much more...
Search in SharePoint 2013 changes EVERYTHING
What’s new with Search
SharePoint Search + FAST
•“Continuous Crawl”•Result Sources•Result Types•Query Rules•Content Search WebPart•Search WebParts upgraded•Search Center upgraded•No more XSLT needed for results•Query Suggestions “autocomplete”•New Architecture•Includes a Documentum Connector•Indexing in HTTP supports anonymous crawl
Continuous Crawl
•Only works on SharePoint Content Sources
•By default every 15min
•Set-SPEnterpriseSearchCrawlContentSource
•Once indexed, content appears almost right away...like magic
•Lots of added pressure on the Server
Continuous Crawl - UI Configuration
Power to the Site Collection Administrators!

Governance
Should not strike fearwhen said out loud
Should not be a burdento carry during the
project
A Governance plan helps establish rules.With so many users and sites, it helps maintain
everything together.
but keep it simple.
or it will turn into a documentNO ONEwill read
InformationArchitecture
is the logical way of
organizing your
SharePoint architecture
it will help you define things like
Metadata Columns SitesNavigation Hierarchy
Content on Pages
and everything else that will be used in your SharePoint
Make sure you have a planSharePoint Migration is no easy
task
set goals and milestones to measure the success of your
migration
This can be simpleLook at what you want to
Remove
Migrate
Rebuild
And this will be even easier to do if you did an inventory of your sites before
