How will Sharepoint 2007 Customization work under Sharepoint 2010 - Windows Live

Most of us got this question .. what will happen to the custom web parts and customization we developed for Sharepoint 2007 ? .. will it work under Sharepoint 2010 or we have to reinvest in modifying them, fortunately i got these information from Microsoft :)

Custom code written for the 2007 version of SharePoint will work on a 2010 installation without requiring the customizations to be re-written… see more on this blog :

Geneva Whitepapers

"Geneva" Claims Based Access Platform
"Geneva" helps simplify access to applications and other systems with an open and interoperable claims-based model.
For developers: "Geneva" helps simplify user access for developers by externalizing access logic from applications via claims, and reducing development effort with pre-built security logic and integrated .NET tools.
For IT professionals: "Geneva" helps IT efficiently deploy and manage new applications by reducing custom implementation work, consolidating access management in the hands of IT, helping establish a consistent security model, and facilitating seamless collaboration between organizations with automated federation tools.
For information workers and consumers: Users can benefit from help navigating logins, managing different personas, and controlling how personal information is shared.

• "Geneva" includes built-in interoperability via open industry standards and claims, and implements the industry Identity Metasystem vision for open and interoperable identity.
• "Geneva" includes three components for enabling claims-based access. Beta 1 of the following components are now available for public evaluation:
• "Geneva" Framework for building .NET applications that use claims to make user access decisions
• "Geneva" Server security token service (STS) for issuing and transforming claims, enabling federations, and managing user access
• Windows CardSpace "Geneva" for helping users navigate access decisions and for developers to build customer authentication experiences for users

Available Here for Download
"Geneva" Datasheet - Updated for Beta 2
Whitepaper: "Geneva" Claims Based Access Platform
Learn about Microsoft's new "Geneva" claims based access platform. Read about the three main components of "Geneva" and how they work together to help solve application access problems with a single simplified access model. Understand how claims can be used across a wide variety of scenarios including enterprise, federation and Web. In this paper new concepts and terminology are introduced to help architects, developers and IT professionals understand the benefits and concepts behind the claims-based model of identity. A background in developing, deploying or managing web applications and services that entail user authentication is expected. By David Chappell
Whitepaper: "Geneva" Framework - Updated for Beta 2
Get started building claims-aware applications using Microsoft code-named "Geneva" Framework. In this paper concepts and terminology are introduced to help developers understand the benefits and concepts behind the claims-based model of identity. Security expertise is not required but familiarity with ASP.NET or WCF programming is. A background in building web applications or services that care about authentication and authorization is expected. As such, the focus of the paper is on building relying parties using the framework.

Is Gradual Upgrade in SharePoint 2010 Really Dead? How is Upgrade Better? - SharePoint Joel's SharePoint Land

In the Upgrade to SharePoint 2007 there were 3 popular methods.  In Place, Gradual, and Database Attach.  In place was a scenario that many of us took as a no starter and many of us even went so far as to say NEVER do it.  Now the message is there are two methods for upgrade.  In place and Database attach.  Despite the fact that gradual upgrade as we knew it is dead, what we got from gradual upgrade we still have.  What do I mean?

The goal of this training is to show you how to get started with development for SharePoint 2010 using Visual Studio 2010.

This training provides a Silverlight navigation experience that allows you to navigate between ten different learning tracks or modules and you can even test your skills.

Each module includes a set of videos, hands-on labs manuals in C# and VB, and a set code samples/snippets that you can also find in Paul Andrew’s blog.

SharePoint 2010 – Install Steps

 

As you are all aware the SharePoint 2010 NDA was lifted last week at the Microsoft SharePoint Conference 2009. So from now on there should be lots of posts about what 2010 can do and how it can be used. In this post I will walk you through the basic install, setting all the services and end up creating a base internet portal. As a note to start I am using the Tech Preview version of SharePoint 2010 which will look slightly different when it hits the public beta.

SharePoint Designer 2010 New Shell Tour

Welcome to SharePoint Designer 2010! As Todd Haugen mentioned in his latest blog, we’ve got a number of wonderful features this release and we’re really excited to get them into your hands. This is a follow-up blog to dive into the new shell, or user interface, of SPD 2010. I think this is one of the greatest enhancements for the 2010 release. The new shell of SPD 2010 targets new and old users alike by highlighting SharePoint artifacts (not the folder structure they’re stored in), presenting key information you want to know about those artifacts, bubbling the tools and commands up to the Ribbon, and giving you intuitive navigation to explore, modify, and create rich and powerful SharePoint sites.

Disk2vhd By Mark Russinovich and Bryce Cogswell

 

Disk2vhd is a utility that creates VHD (Virtual Hard Disk - Microsoft’s Virtual Machine disk format) versions of physical disks for use in Microsoft Virtual PC or Microsoft Hyper-V virtual machines (VMs). The difference between Disk2vhd and other physical-to-virtual tools is that you can run Disk2vhd on a system that’s online. Disk2vhd uses Windows’ Volume Snapshot capability, introduced in Windows XP, to create consistent point-in-time snapshots of the volumes you want to include in a conversion. You can even have Disk2vhd create the VHDs on local volumes, even ones being converted (though performance is better when the VHD is on a disk different than ones being converted).
