SharePoint 2007: The Current Governance Nightmare—and Will It Get Better?

Presenters: Craig Roth, and Guy Creese

Duration: 7hrs 13min

Description: SharePoint 2007 has been a runaway success, offering Office-centricity and ease-of-use to workers interested in storing and sharing information. However, its ease-of-use is also a snare and a delusion, in many cases fostering uncontrolled proliferation of thousands of SharePoint sites that have different navigation, taxonomy, and security models.

This workshop addresses SharePoint infrastructure planning and governance issues as well as the future of SharePoint with these modules:

• SharePoint as an enterprise solution
• SharePoint governance
• SharePoint security
• Deployment pre-work
• Adoption of SharePoint in the enterprise
• The future of SharePoint and a glimpse at Office 14

What You Will Learn:

Attendees will learn the answers to key questions from architects and infrastructure planners about implementation and deployment of Windows SharePoint Services v3 and Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007.

• What does it mean to treat SharePoint as an enterprise solution rather than a departmental information sharing mechanism?
• How should organizations approach securing SharePoint for internal or extranet use?
• What pre-work is necessary for planning a SharePoint deployment?
• What governance models work for SharePoint?
• What infrastructure do we need to have in place for SharePoint to work?
• What does the future hold for SharePoint, from Microsoft and the rest of the ecosystem?
