Microsoft Windows® SharePoint Services Beta
Microsoft Windows® SharePoint Services Beta 2 allows you to create Web sites for information sharing and document collaboration, to increase your individual and team productivity. Windows SharePoint Services Beta 2 is an Information Worker Infrastructure component delivered in Windows Server 2003 that provides team services and sites to Microsoft Office and other desktop applications. It also serves as a platform for application development. Windows SharePoint Services sites take file storage to a new level, providing communities for team collaboration and empowering users to collaborate on documents, tasks, contacts, events, and other information. Windows SharePoint Services enables team and site managers to easily manage site content and user activity. The environment is designed for easy and flexible deployment, administration, and application development. Windows SharePoint Services sites are made up of Web Parts and Windows ASP.NET-based components that provide and present specific application features. Web Parts are designed to be added to pages and configured by site administrators and users, creating complete page-based applications. Windows SharePoint Services ships with a number of ready-to-use Web Parts; more will be available in the future from Microsoft and third-party vendors. Team CommunitySharePoint sites provide places to capture and share ideas, information, communication, and documents. The sites facilitate team participation in discussions, shared document collaboration, and surveys. Site content is accessible from both a Web browser and through clients that support Web Services. The document collaboration features allow for easy check in, check out, and document version control. Individual EmpowermentSharePoint site members can find and communicate with key contacts and experts, both by e-mail and with instant messaging. Site content can be easily searched, and users can also receive alerts to tell them when existing documents and information has been changed, or when new information or documents have been added. Site content and layout can be personalized on a per-user basis, and Web Parts can be used to present targeted information to specific users on precise topics. The Microsoft Office System uses SharePoint site content. All of a site’s collaborative content (for example, documents, lists, events, task assignments, and membership rosters) can be read and edited within Microsoft Office Word 2003, Microsoft Office Excel 2003, and Microsoft Office PowerPoint® 2003. Picture editing of Web-based photo libraries is also possible. Microsoft Office Outlook® 2003 allows SharePoint site event calendars to be viewed side-by-side with personal calendars, and it also creates meeting-specific workspaces to augment group appointments. Management EnablerSharePoint site managers can customize the content and layout of sites to ensure that site members can access and work with important and relevant information. Members’ participation can also be monitored and moderated when necessary. Security and task responsibilities are both flexible and easily accessible. Well-designed lists and entire sites can be saved as templates and reused by individuals, teams, or business units across an organization. Administration and DeploymentWindows SharePoint Services can scale to thousands of sites within an organization. It fully supports load-balanced Web farm and clustered database deployments. For site and server managers, quotas can be set and enforced not only on storage, but on sites per-server and users per-site. Site usage can be monitored to detect and retire inactive sites. Security is granular, yet easily managed. Server managers can delegate to end users the ability to create their own sites. Sites and servers can be managed from a Web browser, command-line tools, or a Web service-accessible object model. Integrated Windows .NET DevelopmentIn addition to the Web Part infrastructure, Windows SharePoint Services servers, sites, and site contents are exposed by a comprehensive Windows .NET-based object model and industry-standard Web services. Site customization and enhance data-driven site content is possible, even to non-programmers by using Microsoft Office FrontPage®2003.
