| SharePoint Online as an Enterprise, Collaboration Platform Greater Idaho SharePoint Users Group September 25, 2013 Pete Hohenhaus, Presenter 1

| SharePoint Online/O365 History. – BPOS – Business Productivity Online Services. – Hosting Companies. – SharePoint Online Dedicated. – SharePoint Online Multitenant. – O365. 2

| Pete Thesis Multitenant SharePoint Online is a perfectly good platform for collaboration across the enterprise. Multitenant SharePoint Online is, in fact, preferable to SharePoint on premises in several key ways. 3

| Models Everything SharePoint on Premises – SPOP. Everything SharePoint Online – SPO. “Pete” or Hybrid Model – PHYBRID – Main collaboration on SPO. Every service that can be deployed online goes online. – And, any important service not on SPO is maintained on prem. SSRS, PPS, etc. 4

| O365 O365. – First focus – Exchange Online. Most developed. – Office. – SharePoint Online. Growth area. 5

| Case for SPO Universality of access/mobility –Anytime –Anywhere –Any device Focus on basics of SharePoint, SharePoint as –A Collaboration Platform –An Information Management Utility External parties invitation and access Coherent, standard approach to logon 6

| Case for SPO More frequent updates (quarterly) Direct approach to administration and management Immediate recoverability Multi-geographic, data center backup Leverage other O365 components. ADFS integration. –Only on prem hardware/software are Proxy, ADFS, and Dir Sync servers

| The Core of The Case for SPO SharePoint Online encourages, supports, and enables us to spend the bulk of our time helping users to get the most out of SharePoint and INFORMATION!!! (Not troubleshooting and maintaining hardware and software) (Don’t worry there are always quirks)

| And … Custom and App development largely gets divorced from the core of SharePoint!

| Case Against SPO Cost Still have to logon No easy across-the-board customization Can’t do real business intelligence Can’t search on premises file shares, etc. Can’t do remote blog storage

| Cost No, not any more Lots of licensing plans Phased transition, adoption Microsoft incentives In fact, SharePoint Online may well, in many cases, be less expensive than on premises

| Still have to logon Not completely transparent yet, but Standard, secure logon Basically once a day, 8 hour timeout Really isn’t some logon more secure Remote access requires logon anyway

| No easy across-the-board customization First, you can create templates and use them on a site collection by site collection basis Second, with logo’s, themes, etc., configuration provides lots of identity Thirdly, so what, customization has always been overrated

| Can’t do real business intelligence Well, maybe, but not for long Excel service Publishing from Excel 2013 And POWER BI!!! – Power BI to the Cloud, first

| Can’t search on premises material No, not true, use of a “reverse proxy” server accomplishes this

| Can’t do remote blog storage Well, not entirely true There is a complex way of essentially doing this – Azure

| Hybrid Models Do everything you can in the cloud Create minimal on premises deployments to support SharePoint Online and do the things on premises that you can’t do online – And, I wager there will be less and less of that …

| Migration, and the like Think about build structure – site collections – and copy/moving content Think about on premises to online site collection copy/moving – Metalogix – MetaVis – dSHIFT

| Come to the Cloud It is the future of SharePoint It is the future of Microsoft – Services and devices It is very groovy, and I like it!
