Microsoft SharePoint 2010: Building Solutions for SharePoint 2010 (Books for Professionals by Professionals)

With this book, you’ll gain intermediate-level guidance for designing and deploying exciting business solutions based on Microsoft SharePoint 2010.

What you’ll learn
  • Write effective SharePoint 2010 solutions that can be used on the Web, through Microsoft Office, and on mobile devices.
  • Find out best practices for managing data stored in a SharePoint site and the most effective ways to get value out of it.
  • Discover how to write effective web parts and pages and integrate those solutions across other Microsoft technologies.
  • Put on your designer hat and create a custom look and feel for your SharePoint site or portal.
  • Learn how to use existing data to create business intelligence solutions based on SharePoint sites.

It has always been a challenge to find the superman that knows both, data ware housing concepts, and SharePoint concepts. The data ware housing concepts include basic stuff you need to know to work in the BI area such as cubes, MDX queries, etc. So chapter 1 covers that – and if you’re a hardcore DBA, feel free to skip Chapter 1. Then beyond that, we take every single SharePoint 2010 BI topic, and slice and dice it in detail. The topics we deal with are

  • Visio Services
  • Reporting services
  • Business Connectivity Services
  • Excel Services
  • PerformancePoint Services

And in covering each of these topics, we ensure that a general layout was followed for each topic, to ensure completeness of content. We make sure we cover

Who this book is for
This book is for the typical SharePoint 2010 project team member who is technical in nature. It is aimed more toward developers, IT pros, and technical architects than designers or non-technical team members.

Staffing and People Mappings

One more commonly overlooked component of a successful implementation is staffing. Architects and administrators usually do a good job creating a bill of goods for hardware and software, but they often forget to secure funding for personnel to adequately develop and maintain systems. SharePoint can consume a large amount of human resources if used to its full potential. Understand what types of dedicated personnel are required in the beginning, and start getting stakeholders' support immediately. The table below offers a suggested staffing schedule for you to consider. (Note: F = One full time person and P = One part time person.)

SQL Server RBS Performance with SharePoint Server 2010 and StorSimple Storage Solution

When users store more documents and larger media documents in SharePoint libraries, performance, scalability, and manageability challenges occur for SharePoint administrators. The Remote BLOB Storage (RBS) feature in SharePoint Server 2010 addresses these challenges. This paper explains the RBS feature as it applies to SharePoint Server 2010 and analyzes its performance impacts on key attributes of a SharePoint farm such as database size, database backup size, transaction response times, and backup/restore time.

Download details: SharePoint 2010 Easy Setup Script

The SharePoint 2010 Easy Setup Script is a new set of pre-packaged tools that help developers easily get started with SharePoint 2010 development by automating the provisioning of a developer workstation using Windows 7, SharePoint & associated tools.
Written in Windows PowerShell these scripts will install and configure all the pre-requisites & products to get you up and running with SharePoint development.
Additionally the script will download evaluation copies of the products it installs (or use fully licensed product bits you supply), install them either locally or in a user supplied Windows 7 VHD & set that VHD up for duel boot using the Windows 7 VHD native boot feature. It also allows you to configure what products are installed via a configuration file, so you can add or remove products.
All the source is included for your use. If a particular aspect of the setup isn’t right for your requirements then you have the ability to change it. A good example of this might be to configure the SharePoint installation to fit your organizations standard deployment.
Out of the box it will help you install:

  • SharePoint Server 2010 + pre-requisites (Standalone)
  • Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate Edition
  • Silverlight 4 Tools for Visual Studio
  • Expression Studio 4 Ultimate
  • Open XML SDK
  • Visual Studio SDK
  • Visual Studio SharePoint Power Tools
  • Office 2010 Professional Plus

With SharePoint 2010 we now have the ability to allow SharePoint to manage various service accounts thus foregoing the need to have IT administrators manually manage password changes. This new feature is a great benefit to SharePoint administrators and security conscious admins in general as it allows us to easily enforce our corporate security policies by changing these passwords on a schedule, and the administrators don’t even know what the password is so the likelihood of a compromise due to a disgruntled admin, though not eliminated, is somewhat reduced.

Configure Core Infra for Multi-Tenant Scenario

This script configures the base sharepoint requirements for a multi-tenant sceanrio as detailed at http://www.harbar.net/articles/sp2010mt4.aspx

It creates and configures Managed Accounts, Application Pools, core Service Applications and a hosting Web Application and Managed Paths.

Configure Core Infra for Multi-Tenant Scenario

Rational Guide to Multi Tenancy with SharePoint 2010

SPS2010

So what is Multi-Tenancy? In a word, it’s Hosting! A unique deployment for each customer on a shared set of infrastructure resources. The most common scenarios are

  • “Traditional” Web Hosting Environments
  • SharePoint Online
  • Corporate On Premise Deployments

The last one here is interesting, there are a number of aspects which we will cover later which make multi-tenant an often requested and compelling deployment approach for large corporate on premise deployments.

A good analogy here is a flat or apartment building. In this real world case, multiple tenants share the same infrastructure (the building, the doors etc). In addition some services are shared but have no data (entry phone, refuse collection). Some other services are shared (electricity, telephone) and have data which should be partitioned (meter readings, billing). Some other services are a free for all (car parking).

Updated: September 8, 2010. The Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Software Development Kit (SDK) includes documentation and code samples for Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010 and for Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010, which builds upon the SharePoint Foundation 2010 infrastructure.

SPS2010

The documentation includes detailed descriptions of the technologies that SharePoint Server 2010 and SharePoint Foundation 2010 provide for developers, reference documentation for the server and client object models, and step-by-step procedures for using these technologies and object models and programming with them. This SDK also includes best practices and setup guidance to help you get started with your own custom applications that build and extend upon the SharePoint Foundation 2010 and SharePoint Server 2010 platforms.


The SDK also includes many code samples that address common customization scenarios and solution building blocks. A full list of code samples can be found on MSDN Code Gallery. Future (quarterly) releases will contain additional samples, and you can also check MSDN Code Gallery for SharePoint solutions and code samples.

The AUG2010 update of the SharePoint 2010 SDK contains new code samples, updated IntelliSense XML files, and updated documentation based on customer feedback. Read the following topics on MSDN for a complete list of updates: What's New in the SDK for SharePoint Foundation 2010 and What's New in the SDK for SharePoint Server 2010.
