”It takes us 6 weeks to get something updated due our release model with FTC”Change

it!

If this is not what you’re looking for, change the model – the product doesn’t require it

ApproachHow the transformation was approached?

How?

There is no 1-to-1 match

Concentrate on business requirement, not how it’s technically achieved…

“I really cannot help you if you don’t have the requirements

collected”It’s pointless to concentrate on servers

and code, if we don’t know what they are for…

Cost vs. Gain vs. Pain

Simplicity first…Gradually add new capabilities after initial CAM release…

Understand the long term impact of the customizations to the platform…

Consistent cleaned branding experience

OneDrive for Business branding

Intranet front page (mock up) Specific capabilities

Fully personalized front page experience based on organization and location information in user profile

JavaScript as driving technology to provide personalized experiences Provide same personalized capabilities

as with server side code, but by using alternative approaches

Page layout based design

Demo

Walking through the functionalities and approaches for “Camification”

MigrationOften overlooked, but important and time consuming phase…How do we convert existing sites and

content?

Challenge?Existing sites are dependent on full trust code…

Gradual reduction to FTC dependency from page layouts and master pages

Implemented as remote operation to control the used elements on sites

Replace page layouts and master pages

Remote operation to replace web parts on page Replace with pre-configured out of the box web parts Replace with App part instances Embedded JavaScript

App part installation requires enabling of app side loading in the site Can be enabled only on the needed time by using

CSOM with feature activations

Replacement of web parts and controls

If created declaratively using feature framework, no known solution currently If created using code, no actual

dependencies on FTC code or farm solutions

There is work being done on providing a solution to remove the dependency

Site columns and content types

\\15\Templates\Features\FeatureA

Content database

WSP package

Configuration database

Content Type A

Content Type B

Content Type C

<<has reference in manifest.xml>>

XML

<<Provisioned content types And site columns

have dependency on element xml files>> Feature with

element files for content type and

site column defintion

No matching solution as such in CAM side Scheduling can be done using any external

platform Access to SP as using CSOM/REST

Timer jobs

Custom fields types Custom site definitions Moving from publishing

to non-publishing sites

Case of a bad headache?

Will require full migration project…

Recap – Business value for customer

Cloud ReadyAgility for business Cost efficiency

Customize for business value

Key takeaways

Remember to consider content, not just the functionality…

Lot of proven patterns, it’s not just web part to app part discussions…

You should not compare FTC and CAM as one to one…
