- 10. Virtualised Farm ArchitectureCost Effective Farm / No HAAllows organisations that wouldn’t normally be able to have a test environment to run one
- 11. Allows for separation of the database role onto a dedicated server
- 12. Can be easily scaled out in the futureHigh-Availability across Hosts
- 14. Uses only two Windows Ent Edition LicensesVirtualised Farm ArchitectureFully Redundant Farm with only Two Servers
- 15. VirtualisedFarm ArchitectureBest Practise, Highly Available and Scalable FarmHighest transaction servers are physical
- 16. Multiple farm support, with DBs for all farms on the SQL cluster
- 17. Only five physical servers total, but high performanceVirtualised Farm ArchitectureVirtualisation Scalability
- 18. High Availability ArchitectureSQL Database MirroringAvailable in SQL Server 2005/2008, both Standard and Enterprise MirroringKeep a full copy of Database on another serverAsynchronous (good for WAN scenarios, Enterprise edition only) or Synchronous
- 19. High Availability Architecture Database Mirroring – Single Site OptionSingle SiteSynchronous ReplicationUses a SQL Witness Server to Failover AutomaticallyMirror all SharePoint DBs in the FarmUse a SQL Alias to switch to Mirror Instance
- 20. High Availability Architecture Database Mirroring – Cross SiteTwo Sites1 ms Latency1GB BandwidthFarm Servers in each locationAuto Failover
- 21. High Availability Architecture Database Mirroring – Warm Farm AsynchronousTwo SitesTwo Farms (one warm farm)Mirror only Content DBsFailover is ManualMust Reattach DBsMust re-index
- 22. Logical ArchitectureWeb Application ArchitectureConsider creating multiple Web AppsExample:spca.companyabc.comssp1.companyabc.commysite.companyabc.comhome.companyabc.comFlexible and scalable!
- 23. Logical ArchitectureDistribute by DefaultDistribute content across multiple Site CollectionsDistribute Site Collections Across Multiple DBsMultiple databases = more controlled DB growthTry to keep your Content DBs manageable in size (50-100GB)
- 24. Hardware and SoftwareDisk, Memory, and ProcessorSQL Databases Require large amounts of space!Allocate Disk Space for Index and Query Servers as wellIndex corpus can grow to 5%-20% of total size of data indexedDatabase and Index Servers require most RAM (4GB, 8GB, or more)Multi-core processors recommended
- 25. Hardware and SoftwareWindows Server VersionsWindows Server 2008 R2 (or RTM) highly recommended!Critical that new servers run x64, required for SharePoint 2010SharePoint servers are fine with Standard edition of Windows, no extra gain for EnterpriseSQL Servers may require Enterprise edition if using SQL Enterprise
- 26. Hardware and SoftwareSQL Server VersionsSQL Server 2008 Recommended64 bit also highly recommended (required for SharePoint 2010)SQL Server 2005 still supportedSQL 2000 supported for Sharepoint 2007, but not for 2010, and not recommendedSeparate SQL Reporting Services server may be required for intensive reportingStandard edition of SQL generally fine, except for very large environments
- 28. Security is no more overhead to ITAutomatic Password ManagementServer addition secured by PassphraseAPIs for permission reporting
- 29. Predictable UpgradeDo-no-harmPre-upgrade checkerVisual UpgradeResumable upgradeProgress reportsParallel DB upgrades

Editor's Notes
- #12: Key MessageSharePoint 2010 extends the base SharePoint Server 2007 architecture.Presenter NotesWSS 3.0 is now SharePoint Foundation and the Shared Service Provider has been replaced by a series of individual Service Applications.SharePoint Foundation now includes the functionality to provide Sandboxed Solutions and usage and health logging. This provides insights into what is happening on your farm and how pages are being used.The number and type of default services has increased to include a range of additional functions. These are individual, so you can more closely manage the functions that are available to each site. These can also be extended by 3rd Party services from ISVs or other software vendors.Extension services include FAST Search, which extends the capabilities of the default SharePoint Search and the Office Web Apps, which enable you to use browser-based Office functionality, without having to load the client applications.The number of integrated client apps has also been extended to include Access and Visio.
- #32: Key Message: SharePoint delivers flexible, feature rich Internet solutionsPresenter Notes: Lecture from the slide.SharePoint can no longer be seen as a Microsoft-proprietary environment when it comes to browsers. It now supports leading browsers, including Firefox and Safari. It maintains the ability to automatically deploy content. This is configured through the central administration site, where you can deploy and configure all site. SharePoint 2010 delivers on W3C standards and accessibility compliant, which makes it far more attractive as an Internet-facing Web site for general users. The flexible development and user tools makes it easy to develop and deploy sites and information, so you can react to business change quickly.You can also deliver Web 2.0 functionality to customers, through social computing, tagging, and FAST Search. The flexibility to store and deliver any document format – multimedia or traditional documents – makes it all the more compelling for customers, and don’t forget the ease or deployment for staff. Even information that is “locked” securely in you LoB system, can be visualized to your customers through Business Connectivity Services, without any security reduction.
