SharePoint Foundation Overview

has defined HOW Microsoft will be
deployed on-premises.
• Next release has 3 core focus areas:
1. Improved user experiences
enable app consumption

Meeting #125
Office Graph and Delve
• Office Graph is a data layer, an intelligent fabric that lives in the cloud and
connects to a variety of apps that we use/consume daily
• Search vs. Discovery
• Delve surfaces relevant information across O365
• Delve doesn’t change permissions, but inaccurate
permissions can be dangerous
• Boards allow you to pin content for easy
viewing by you and others
• Android Delve app available; iOS on its way
• Delve and Office Graph will ship as an update to
on-premises SharePoint 2013 later this year!
http://sharepointmn.com
Meeting #125
Knowledge Management in O365
• Boards provide a lightweight method
for gathering a variety of data from
disparate locations into a unified view
• Microsites offer more control/context
around a collection. Articles enable
you to provide a narrative for your
content. Encourages interaction;
comes with its own permission model.
• Infopedia is a formalized, curated
knowledge set that is published for
consumption. Still in the envisioning
stage.
http://sharepointmn.com

Designing and Applying Information Architecture for Microsoft
SharePoint and Office 365
• Option 1 - Like a file share (folders and default view)
 Great for contributors, a nightmare for consumers
• Option 2 - Metadata instead of folders
 Great for consumers, a nightmare for contributors
• Resolution?
 Treat your content contributors differently than your content consumers
 Design columns, not folders
 Then create folders
 Auto-populate metadata based on folder location
