• SharePoint Services, Workflows


Supported - Branding

• Custom branding• Master Pages, Page Layouts• CSS• Themes

• Embedding custom controls and Silverlight applications• Web Part limitations

• Deploying .js files to the Master Page Gallery

Sandbox

SharePoint Online Standard


Administration

SharePoint 2010 SharePoint Online


Sandboxed Solution

• Designed for farm administrators to trust custom solutions will not damage or impair the SharePoint farm

• Gives site collection admins authority to manage apps in site collection

• Developers can create solutions deployed safely


Sandboxed Solutions

• Look and behave like farm solution• Sandboxed solution marked to allow partially trusted callers

• Scoped to SPSite / Site Collection• Web Parts• Lists• List Templates• Custom Actions• Workflows• Event Receivers• Content Types• Site Columns

• Compile time support within Visual Studio


Sandbox Benefits

• Removes risk of affecting processes outside the sandbox

• Deployment by site collection administrators• Increased scalability and flexibility are increased• A solution does not have to be modified or

recompiled if it is moved from a sandbox to running directly on the farm


Permitted Feature Elements

• ContentType • Field • CustomAction • Module • ListInstance • ListTemplate • Receivers• WebTemplate • WorkflowAssociation • PropertyBag • WorkflowActions


Sandbox Assemblies Cannot• Connect to resources that are not

located on the local server• Access a database• Change the threading model• Call unmanaged code• Write to disk• Access resources in a different site

collection

Office 365 Limitations Until GA++• No BCS• No Web Service Calls


Components You Can Deploy in Sandbox

• Web Parts• Event receivers• Feature receivers• Custom Microsoft SharePoint

Designer workflow activities• Microsoft InfoPath business logic

Sandbox Deployment

• WSP files• Solution Gallery located at root of site collection

Microsoft Conidential - NDA Only


Sandboxed Solution Monitoring• Quotas specify limits for

resource consumption per day• Summed across solutions deployed

to Site Collection• i.e.: add up CPU Points for all

solutions• Solution is self-regulated vs.

quotas to protect Site Collection• Throttled• Deactivated

What’s Possible?

Azure Integration HowSharePoint Client Object Model Interact with Azure data in a list.

BCS Model data from Azure and/or build external list to SQL Azure.

Silverlight Create UI against Azure services or data.

Sandboxed Solutions Silverlight application leveraging Azure deployed to site collections.

Standard / Visual Web Parts Leverage services and data from Azure.

REST Use REST to interact with Azure data to integrate with SP artifacts.

Office Server Services Combine with OO to auto-gen docs (ex: PDFs) on server.

Workflow / Event Receivers State or events that tie into Azure services or data.

LINQ Use for querying Azure data objects.

Search Federate search to include Azure data.

SharePoint Services Summary

• Excel Services• Surface Excel data and artifacts in SharePoint Online• Publish pieces of Excel workbooks to SharePoint Online• Interact with Excel data and artifacts with the REST API

and JavaScript Object Model• Access Services• Convert Access databases to SharePoint lists and forms


Workflow Services

• Prototype workflows in Visio 2010• Use diagrams to get sign-off

• Implement the workflow in SharePoint Designer 2010• Custom or copy & modify built

in workflow• Actions, conditions and steps

• Develop custom workflow actions and events in Visual Studio 2010

• Scope• SPSite• SPWeb• SPList• SPContentType

• Events• WorkflowStarting• WorkflowStarted• WorkflowCompleted• WorkflowLoading• WorkflowUnloading • WorkflowPostponed

• Can’t export from SPD2010 to VS2010• Can’t build Visual Studio code workflows in a sandboxed solution

Common SharePoint Migration Approaches


Application Components

• What components make up your applications?• Solutions• Features

• How are they scoped?• Farm, Site, Web

• How do these components map to your target environment?• What changes need to be made?


Multiple paths are possible

• Greenfield• Rewrite components to adhere to best practices before migrating• Migrate data to new locations

• Brownfield• Migrate pieces that work in the target environment• Update architecture later• Ex: http://sharepoint2010.microsoft.com

• Migrate data as needed, or not at all• Gradual vs. Complete• Creating an SPO compatible on premise solution for later

migration.
