Introduction
IT proactively manages SharePoint deployments to ensure compliance with business requirements and optimized user experience. How will the changes in SharePoint 2013 affect IT’s role?
IDM SharePoint experts weigh in on the impact of SharePoint 2013 on IT. The following are excerpts from their blog posts:
“SharePoint 2013 introduces a host of new features that will require some adjustments by IT professionals. In this article, we’ll walk you through five key areas where IT should pay attention.”
- Centralized management of content and configuration: One of the most significant changes in SharePoint 2013 is the introduction of a central management console that makes it easier for administrators to centrally manage content and configurations across multiple sites. This means that instead of managing each site individually, administrators can now centrally manage settings such as site quotas, security permissions, and search engine indexing options.
- Improved collaboration features: Collaboration is one of the key benefits of using SharePoint technology. With SharePoint 2013, Microsoft has focused on making it easier for users to collaborate across different sites and applications by introducing new features such as social networking integration and task boards.
- Increased scalability: One of the main weaknesses of previous versions of SharePoint was their limited scalability. With SharePoint 2013, Microsoft has addressed this issue by introducing a number of new features that make it possible to scale up the platform beyond its previous limits. For example, document libraries can now be stored in web servers
