Module Overview Evolving requirements Cloud Options Build versus Buy

The nature of how we collaborate has evolved, and continues to evolve

~ John Mancini, CEO of AIIM.org We’re moving from these “systems of record” to a more social, collaborative “systems of engagement” model ~ John Mancini, CEO of AIIM.org

SharePoint 2013 was a pivotal release

Why are we talking about Cloud? As SharePoint continues to expand its footprint, companies are demanding flexible architectures to help them better meet internal and external collaboration needs Reducing costs Reducing headcount Doing more with less Focusing less on traditional IT activities and more on activities that will help drive the business forward

Alternatives for control, cost, & capability Software as a Service (SaaS) (end users) Platform as a Service (PaaS) (app developers and designers) As SharePoint extends into broad adoption and business solutions such as extranets securing the SharePoint content is key. Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) (network architects)

Software as a Service Standardized (packaged) platform 1/13/2019 Software as a Service Standardized (packaged) platform Provided with Service Level Agreements (SLAs) Minimal customization Both software and hardware infrastructure provided within the service Customer receives a completed application and functionality with agreed upon SLAs, system uptime, and quality of service (performance). The downside is that there is minimal ability to customize, and new features/updates/changes are driven by market demand or the capabilities of the provider. How do Cloud services differ from traditional managed services? The primary difference is that you say goodbye to the major platform upgrades every 3 or 4 years, and move toward more of an iterative update. As cloud-based service providers, their revenue model changes dramatically as customers move from a high-cost, project-based model to a recurring revenue model. © 2014 Microsoft Corporation.

1/13/2019 Platform as a Service Architectural and development access to application services, storage, and application runtime Infrastructure Service Level Agreements (SLAs), but work must be conducted within agreed framework Some customizations allowed, within framework Both software and hardware infrastructure provided within the service An environment that provides great application-level control over the SharePoint environment, including access to cloud storage and other services. However, this greater level of application control shifts support/ownership of the application (SharePoint) to the customer. © 2014 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

A Gradual Process A recent survey by UBS AG of 101 CIOs in the U.S. and Europe found that more than half would move some workloads to a public cloud, but it would be a gradual process, while a third of respondents said they were moving to a public cloud as quickly as possible. (Wall Street Journal, July 16, 2014)

As SharePoint continues to expand its footprint, companies are demanding flexible architectures to help them better meet internal and external collaboration needs Reducing costs Reducing headcount Doing more with less Focusing less on traditional IT activities and more on activities that will help drive the business forward

Summary Whether or not you’re planning to move to the cloud today, you need to begin thinking about the cloud and how it will impact your existing infrastructure

Up Next Module 2 will walk through some of the common planning considerations
