What Is Meant By ‘Cloud’?
Informal definition:
‘Cloud’ lets us use a service without worrying about how it’s delivered.

#SPSSAN
Approaching the Problem
Most organizations will tend to approach cloud-based collaboration the same way they approach the delivery of other line-of-business services.
Developing a Collaboration Strategy
| Slide 14 |
#SPSSAN
Available Options
Private cloud:Self-owned.
Office 365:Self-administered.
Amazon / Azure-hosted SharePoint:Self-managed.
Third-party hosted SharePoint:Partially managed, partially administered.

#SPSSAN
Indicators
The best indicators of an organization’s cloud strategy are:
(a) The complexity of SharePoint, in particular the level of customization, and
(b) The maturity of SharePoint within the organization.
Developing a Collaboration Strategy
| Slide 16 |
#SPSSAN
Evaluating the Options
In all cases, a corporate collaboration strategy should be developed through a systematic analysis of alternatives against a set of criteria. Some of the key criteria to consider are:
Developing a Collaboration Strategy
| Slide 17 |
#SPSSAN
C1 - Business Requirements
Business requirements should be used to determine feasibility.
Not all business requirements can be met through cloud-based SharePoint.
Developing a Collaboration Strategy
| Slide 18 |
#SPSSAN
C2 - Required Service Levels
Service levels ( in particular RPO, RTO, and recovery catalog ) should be used to determine both the design of SharePoint and what is required in the event of a failure.
Developing a Collaboration Strategy
| Slide 19 |
#SPSSAN
C3 - Available Resources
Many organizations don’t have the skills and / or capacity required to manage an enterprise SharePoint implementation.
Developing a Collaboration Strategy
| Slide 20 |
#SPSSAN
C4 - Integration with Other Systems
Integrated systems are often not cloud-based.
If the method of integration is a customization, it may not be supported in a cloud-based implementation of SharePoint.
Changes to integration points need to be tested in a non-production environment.
Developing a Collaboration Strategy
| Slide 21 |
#SPSSAN
C5 - Business Continuity
In this context, ‘business continuity’ refers to both high availability and disaster recovery.
Developing a Collaboration Strategy
| Slide 22 |
#SPSSAN
C6 - Data Ownership and Security
Storing data in the cloud delegates access and responsibility to someone else.
Developing a Collaboration Strategy
| Slide 23 |
#SPSSAN
C7 - Governance Strategy
Both on-premises and cloud based SharePoint solutions require governance.
Governance pertaining to storage and retention may be reduced by selecting a cloud solution which includes storage management.
Governance can be more difficult to automate in the cloud.
Developing a Collaboration Strategy
| Slide 24 |
#SPSSAN
C8 - Cost
Cost should be assessed in terms of up-front cost, operational ( run ) costs, and future costs anticipating growth.
Watch out for large quantities of data and / or large numbers of users.
