Whats there in new SharePoint

I was pretty excited to see latest version release of office suite 2013 along with new version of SharePoint.

Its catch word says SharePoint Server 15 enhances the workload experiences by enabling new compelling scenarios that engage and work with the user.

Had a quick look at Technet site and came to knew that the platform stays the same but few new things introduced....

Let me share few thing real  quick
  1. There are few  platform level improvements and new capabilities
    • Shredded Storage
    • SQL Improvements
    • Cache Service
    • Request Management
    • Themes
    • Sharing
  1. Content Management
    • Site-level retention policies was a pain point when we did Records Management for one of the Pharma major in SharePoint 2010 . Now the compliance levels extended to sites
    • The new  policies include - Retention policy for sites and Team Mailbox associated with site
    • This feature could help us the common business functions like Project closure and site level expiration policy
    • The discovery and legal hold feature were primitive in SP2010 – Microsoft claims there is exponential improvement in this area. Can’t wait to know it …
  1. Looks like there are handful of changes in Service applications  
    • (I’m yet to explore more details) there are New service applications available and improvements on existing ones
    • Office Web Apps is no longer a service application
    • Web Analytics is moved to part of search

I will detail more about customization, architecture in the upcoming posts
