SharePoint Sunday: Best Practices Series
July 8, 2009
An interesting series of Web log articles lit up my radar screen. You can find the first installment of ““Best Practices of SharePoint Farm Configuring and Deployment” here. SharePoint Magazine plans six segments:
- Part 1 – Architecture and Logical Planning
- Part 2 – Installation is here.
- Part 3 – Development Environment
- Part 4 – Backup and Recovery Strategy
- Part 5 – Virtualization
- Part 6 – Post Deployment.
The diagram below provides a visual reminder why such best practices’ write ups are essential for SharePoint. The system is complicated, and one can argue over lunch whether the demo Google Wave is more or less complicated. I know for certain that SharePoint is a hairy beastie. Your mileage may differ, and Microsoft Certified Partners will insist that SharePoint is not too tricky. Just add a dash of hoisin sauce to the MVP’s pre invoice appetizer.
