Designing a Best Practices SharePoint EnvironmentYou must first determine what you are trying to accomplish with your organizations SharePoint environment.

Is your organization’s SharePoint  deployment a:Intranet SolutionEnterprise Content Management SystemKnowledge Management SolutionCollaboration SolutionInternet‐Facing or Extranet‐Facing SolutionBusiness Process Automation Platform (i.e. Workflow)Application Development PlatformA Hybrid of all of the above

Organization’s are answering this question more and more by saying that it is a Hybrid of all of the above…

Page 12: SUCCESSFUL SHAREPOINT IMPLEMENTATIONS › pdfs › jp › Final... · 2019-10-22 · Intranet and Internet facing implementations (WSS ... Finding and achieving quick wins to “wow”

Understanding What the Organization Is Trying to Accomplish (Example)If you are deploying SharePoint as an Extranet Solution, then your architecture should consider:

Deploying a security model that would include the various permission levels of  customers, partners, and various other usersEnsuring the design of the externally accessible SharePoint environment does not expose or place at risk your organization’s internal data, network, and infrastructureInvesting in an antivirus solution at the “SharePoint” level

Is SharePoint going to be your organization’s Business Process Automation Platform (i.e. Forms Housed in SharePoint with custom Workflows)?

If so, you will need answer questions such as:

Are you going to utilize InfoPath Forms Services?Will any custom workflows be developed that will have dependencies on other systems?

Page 13: SUCCESSFUL SHAREPOINT IMPLEMENTATIONS › pdfs › jp › Final... · 2019-10-22 · Intranet and Internet facing implementations (WSS ... Finding and achieving quick wins to “wow”

Proper Planning & Requirements GatheringBased on what your organization is trying to accomplish, the overall design of your SharePoint  environment  should include: 

Your organization’s overall user base (Current & Possible Future)Geographical considerations such as whether you will have users accessing the environment in other cities, countries, or in remote locations. Content and sizing requirements (What is the total content size?)What will be the businesses expectations of the availability of SharePoint(i.e. What are the organizations SharePoint SLAs?)What other systems or data sources within the organization will SharePoint access or possibly interface (i.e. Will it utilize the Business Data Catalog, are Key Performance Indicators on the horizon?) Will SQL Reporting Services be SharePoint’s reporting solution?

Note: This planning must be done regardless of whether the environment is a single‐server deployment or a large server farm.

The Platform’s Big PictureIt is very important to have an accurate architectural picture of yourSharePoint deployment. This will help you to:

Acquire the necessary hardware to implement the physical architectureHave a good grasp of the best possible physical and logical configuration options that are available to youStart designing and implementing a solid and highly available environmentEfficiently plan the deployment of the new SharePoint platform

Plan the design of your SharePoint platform in a manner that would offer SharePoint as a “SERVICE” to your organization. 

SharePoint typically becomes so popular so fast that developing a reliable, highly scalable, and indestructible SharePoint platform is extremely critical as it will quickly become one of the most popular systems in your enterprise.

Page 15: SUCCESSFUL SHAREPOINT IMPLEMENTATIONS › pdfs › jp › Final... · 2019-10-22 · Intranet and Internet facing implementations (WSS ... Finding and achieving quick wins to “wow”

Based on Your Requirements: Select the Proper Architecture

SharePoint supports a wide variety of configurations from a single server configuration with all components installed within it to a multiple server farm with components distributed across multiple servers to share the load of a single function.

(Examples)

Page 16: SUCCESSFUL SHAREPOINT IMPLEMENTATIONS › pdfs › jp › Final... · 2019-10-22 · Intranet and Internet facing implementations (WSS ... Finding and achieving quick wins to “wow”

Enterprise SharePoint DeploymentsOrganization’s with a large number of users, massive content requirements, 

advanced functional requirements, or are geographically dispersed may require 

multiple server farms

Load Balancing is critical in enterprise SharePoint initiatives

Item‐level disaster recovery capabilities are essential as well

Page 17: SUCCESSFUL SHAREPOINT IMPLEMENTATIONS › pdfs › jp › Final... · 2019-10-22 · Intranet and Internet facing implementations (WSS ... Finding and achieving quick wins to “wow”

High Availability: Load Balancing Your Web ServersMicrosoft poses three questions to organization’s who are trying to determine if they require redundancy of their Web Servers:1. Is your overall availability requirement below 99%?2. Is the availability of your data critical? 3. Can your organization tolerate temporary loss of access to the data? 

Most organizations will determine that they will need to load balancetheir web servers. The next decision will be to determine which load balancing technology is a good fit for your organization?Three popular options are:

Load balancing via a Cisco solutionLoad balancing via an F5 solutionNetwork Load Balancing in Windows Server 2003

Planning Your Storage Requirements for SharePoint

SharePoint can quickly become one of the most popular places to store content within an organizationYour organization’s initial storage needs may vary depending on your requirements, but you must have an allowance planned for data and site growth over timeIf you only design the infrastructure of your server farm around the initial data volume, it can quickly be outgrownPlanning storage requirements on an upgrade of SharePoint 2003 to SharePoint 2007 is a bit easier than it is with a new SharePoint implementation because you will already have current storage statisticsFor a new implementation of SharePoint, I recommend planning for at least 3.5 times the amount of data you will store in SharePoint for your original storage requirement estimate

Page 19: SUCCESSFUL SHAREPOINT IMPLEMENTATIONS › pdfs › jp › Final... · 2019-10-22 · Intranet and Internet facing implementations (WSS ... Finding and achieving quick wins to “wow”

Additional Storage ConsiderationsArchived Content:

It is important to gather the requirements of the business to ensure you are prepared for possible bulk loading of documents and content

On several occasions I have seen users upload into SharePoint a large amount of their departments archived content from CDs of backups. Communications from the SharePoint project team to the business and proper planning will ensure archived content is taken into consideration and migrated in a planned manner is key

SQL Backups:

Database administrators within your organization may perform SQL Backups outside of SharePoint’s internal backup tools. The required disk space required by these backups should be added to the overall storage requirements.

Page 20: SUCCESSFUL SHAREPOINT IMPLEMENTATIONS › pdfs › jp › Final... · 2019-10-22 · Intranet and Internet facing implementations (WSS ... Finding and achieving quick wins to “wow”

SQL Server Environment Planning There are specific solutions you should consider when planning your SQL Server 2005 environment:

1. SQL Server 2005 Database MirroringThis allows you to automatically mirror database contents from one SQL Server database to another. It also offers failover capabilities if your primary SQL Server goes down.

2. Microsoft Cluster Service (MSCS)The primary function of this technologies occurs when one server in a cluster fails or is taken offline. With Microsoft Cluster Service, the other server in the cluster takes over for the failed server’s operations.

Page 21: SUCCESSFUL SHAREPOINT IMPLEMENTATIONS › pdfs › jp › Final... · 2019-10-22 · Intranet and Internet facing implementations (WSS ... Finding and achieving quick wins to “wow”

SQL Server: Log Shipping

In the previous slide we talked about Database Mirroring, but be aware of SQL Server 2005 Log Shipping as well…

SQL Server 2005 Log ShippingLog shipping allows you to automatically send transaction log backups from a primary database to one or more secondary databasesThe transaction log backups are applied to each of the secondary databases individually. 

Database Mirroring or Log Shipping

Not every organization has all of these options available to them but if you do, Microsoft has 

developed a key question to help you in your decisions:1. How many destination servers do you require? 

If you require only a single destination database, database mirroring is the recommended solution. If you require more than one destination database, you need to use log shipping, either alone or with database mirroring. ‐

Put Some Thought Into Planning SharePoint’s Content Databases

SharePoint enables you to store large amounts of content within it but you must plan for the proper growth of this content

Several factors are involved in determining how large your content databases should be:

Disaster recovery requirementsHigh latency/low bandwidth locationsYour organization’s current storage solution and its current capacity and limitations (i.e. SAN limitations)Performance of your organization’s infrastructure

Based on your answers to these questions you can better plan the size of your content database.

Page 23: SUCCESSFUL SHAREPOINT IMPLEMENTATIONS › pdfs › jp › Final... · 2019-10-22 · Intranet and Internet facing implementations (WSS ... Finding and achieving quick wins to “wow”

Scaling For GrowthSharePoint allows organization’s to scale any aspect of your environment to meet 

additional requirements. You can add the  following at any time:Additional front‐end Web server or Search serverAdditional Database server or Excel Calculation serverAdditional Application server

Monitoring SharePoint’s Servers with a Toolkit and System Center Operations Manager 2007

Last December, Microsoft released the SharePoint Monitoring Toolkit which works with System Center Operations Manager 2007. It contains two management packs that facilitate the management of SharePoint environments of organizations of all sizes.

Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Management PackMicrosoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 Management Pack

These management packs monitor the health state of the components in a SharePoint environment that affect performance and availability.

When an issues arises that may cause service or performance degradation, 

Operations Manager 2007 uses the management packs to detect the issue, alert system administrators to its existence, and facilitate diagnosis and corrective action

There is also a Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 Management Pack still available for Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM) 2005 which also provides very robust monitoring for SharePoint.

Your Organization’s SharePoint Service Level Agreement (SLA)

When developing Service Level Agreements for SharePoint there are key questions to pose to both IT and the business:

Do we have mission \ business critical data stored in SharePoint?What is the acceptable downtime for SharePoint  within my organization?How would lengthy downtown affect the overall user base’s acceptance of SharePoint or any current or future SharePoint initiatives?What is the cost of investing in third‐party tools such as AvePoint’s  to quickly restore the data vs. the cost to the organization of just having users recreate it?

If a site gets deleted at 3:00pm in the afternoon and IT has to restore it from yesterday’s backup (at 1am)… Users who performed any work that day are going to loose their data and you are going to have a hard time gaining their trust enough again to have them store anything of value in SharePointOver the past few months, I have asked the question on acceptable downtime for SharePoint to several of EPC Group’s clients and the average answer was approximately 4 hours

Page 28: SUCCESSFUL SHAREPOINT IMPLEMENTATIONS › pdfs › jp › Final... · 2019-10-22 · Intranet and Internet facing implementations (WSS ... Finding and achieving quick wins to “wow”

EPC Group’s Best Practices SharePoint Governance

SharePoint Governance for your environment is absolutely critical

If you don’t enforce Governance in the initial phases of your initiative, its going to be twice as hard to implement down the road BUT it needs to be done regardless of your current state

At a high level, SharePoint Governance consists of two major areas:

Infrastructure Governance

Information Management Governance

From these two major areas, I prefer to break it down further and create 4 major topic areas so that I can start gathering requirements to properly architect and design tailored organizationally specific SharePoint Governance Policies:

Is MySite a Potential Pitfall?

SharePoint Server’s My Site functionality enables users to have a dedicated personal site to manage all of their documents, content, and tasks. 

It also provides enhanced circles of collaboration with users that have similar skills and interests within the organization. My Sites in SharePoint really – have two sites: a public site and a private site. 

My Sites can be an extremely powerful tool that organizations can take advantage of to vastly improve collaboration, but it is important to have policies and procedures in place to govern these sites. 

The nature of SharePoint is to encourage users to venture out into the organization and find important and relevant information as well as to help others find the content they are looking for in a timely manner.

MySite Governance is Critical!My Site templates and custom site definitions can be created to minimize these risks, but organizations should adhere to the following standards during their My Site rollout:

All My Site Public View content must contain only work‐related material. This includes work‐related documents, discussions, pictures, links, calendar events, and related content.No My Site Public View content can contain any confidential or private data. If the organization would not allow all users within the company with a domain login to view this information, consider whether it should be on your My Site Public View.Content pertaining to human resources or legal is typically considered confidential and should not be listed on My Site Public View.Financial data must be reviewed prior to its posting on My Site Public View.Content on the private site must not contain personal audio files, inappropriate pictures, or other materials not allowed within the organization. All discussions or blogging done within a My Site must follow company policies and must not contain sensitive company material or defamatory comments about any person within the organization.

SharePoint Performance TestingA large number of organizations assign users to test the functionality of SharePoint and 

related Sites prior to rolling out into Production

Very few organization's actually performance or “Load Test” SharePoint for the amount of 

anticipated users that may soon be accessing the system

With Visual Studio 2008 Testing (Load Test), you can create a new load test for SharePoint 

that will simulate having a specific number of users access SharePoint at the same time and 

then perform an action for which you can specify (i.e. Perform a Search)

Do Users Get What They Expect from SharePoint’s Search?

It is important to not only monitor and audit the performance of SharePoint’s 

servers, databases, and components but to also spend time reviewing what 

your user are searching for to make sure they are getting the expected results.
