Realize the unlimited potential of SharePoint

In 2004, I saw that SharePoint-related information, tools, and products have sprung up. Windows SharePoint Services is currently in version 2.0. It is clear that 3.0 of the SharePoint platform (currently called 3.0) should be released along with Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 development tools, microsoft SharePoint Portal Server 2005 will also be released in December 2005, with the positioning of SharePoint becoming clearer and clearer. Like most MS Server products, when the third edition is released, the maturity of this product should reach a very good balance. On the other hand, more and more Microsoft products and SharePoint products have recently become closer and closer, such as BizTalk 2004 and Porject Server 2003. The direction of Ms Development, IIS should be a suitable enterprise application platform. Both web application and Windows application can work well with IIS (Click once of Smart Client ). There are more and more technology fans who are interested in Sharepoint. It can be said that Sharepoint is a very good product and technology. Whether it is its architecture or positioning, it is indeed worth in-depth discussion, research and use.

I have been a follower of SharePoint technology for a long time. From SharePoint 1.0 to the beta stage of Office System 2003, I have continued until now, and one year ago I became a full-time SharePoint Development and Management Worker. My company can accurately locate the requirements and use SharePoint as the development platform for the enterprise portal, enterprise portals are positioned to provide a unified user portal, integrate enterprise knowledge and information, and provide the basis for user collaborative work. In fact, these three points are also the accurate positioning of SharePoint. The company's enterprise portal has now developed to version 4.0. Each of the previous three versions has different attempts. As a result, the company has experienced a detour and has encountered difficulties and summarized many experiences. Now, I pay more attention to some enterprise knowledge management theories. As an enterprise knowledge management platform, Sharepoint cannot achieve its goal only by using software, but also lacks implementation and enterprise status.

To sum up, Windows SharePoint Services is a knowledge management and collaboration platform. Note that it is a platform, while SharePoint Portal Server 2003 is a knowledge management and collaboration system.

What are enterprise knowledge? How to manage it?

The knowledge of an enterprise is the various documents, tables, logs, and emails summarized by employees in their daily work. Different from experience, experience must be summarized into knowledge. In a modern enterprise, most of the knowledge is electronic, so documents and lists can be summarized. The basic architecture of SharePoint consists of the document library, list library, and people. At the same time, it provides services such as enterprise search and single-point enterprise login, while the webpart technology provides an excellent performance layer architecture.

Enterprises need portals. When an enterprise grows to a certain scale, for example, our company has nearly 1500 employees and nearly 40 office systems of various types, it is painful to work without a portal. how do you remember the system address you want to use and how the data of various systems is displayed in a unified manner.

Sharepoint is not a document management system. To be precise, it is not even suitable for document management. Knowledge should be shared, but documents are not. Enterprise Documents should be confidential. SharePoint 2.0 removes the permission control capability for each document from the original 1.0. In my opinion, there are several reasons: 1. It is not in line with the intention of knowledge management and sharing. 2. Microsoft has specialized information right management services products.

Another aspect that cannot be ignored is the collaboration capability. The biggest difference and advantage of other Portal products is the collaboration capability between SharePoint and other products in Office System 2003. Even further, we can see that information bridge framework, Smart Document, Sharepoint, and BizTalk bring about complementary advantages. What a great blueprint is that Gates frequently mentions Sharepoint.
