4. www.PhillySharePoint.org www.PhillySharePoint.org  Office 365 will make slow, steady progress  Historically, the level of functionality SP Online has lagged in on-premise version  Lag is closing – expect next version of Office & SP to deliver same functions at the same time in the cloud or locally  Prediction: Functions begin to debut in the Office 365 cloud before making there way into on premises versions later “The Cloud”

5. www.PhillySharePoint.org www.PhillySharePoint.org  Prediction: Demand for users to adopt Personal Content “PCM” to aggregate & classify their own information will increase. Extremely large SP sites can start to feel anonymous, & a personal voice is needed to avoid feeling lost Social Communication  SP has improved social networking but lacks maturity  Organizations will likely avoid jumping in with two feet – lack of governance-aware tools  Third party ISVs will play a crucial role in extending SP social functions and governance

6. www.PhillySharePoint.org www.PhillySharePoint.org  Double digit growth for 2011  New users will require care, channeling, guidance and oversight  Governance is not management – it’s the answer to the questions about how and why SharePoint is managed  Prediction- Forward-thinking end customers requiring application developers to create applications that integrate prebuilt solutions to improve manageability, governance and portability, all of which can pose challenges with custom solutions.  Largest Challenge – Business Intelligence, Social Networking and Taxonomies Governance

SQL 2012 Denali

9. www.PhillySharePoint.org www.PhillySharePoint.org Next Wave of SharePoint  More organizations will consider SP consolidation due to SP 2010 proven to handle extremely large content pools – (Terabytes)  Enterprises will look to aggregate legacy ECM platforms and divisional SP “islands” into unified applications  Users want to move away from both big iron ECM platforms with high support costs and “open” platforms with limited scalability and compliance capabilities  Organizations move to develop Second Wave Functions -  Project Management  Business Intelligence  Workflows  SharePoint practitioners will need to translate user requirements beyond IT due to more business-driven projects  Success will require the ability to translate needs of CFO’s, CMOs and PMOs
