SF vs SS

¡  SF is the core technology of Microsoft SharePoint

¡  Considered as the “engine” of SharePoint

¡  Provides document management and team collaboration tools

¡  WF is available for free as long as your organization is utilizing Windows Server 2008

¡  SS extends the capabilities of SF

¡  Going back to our car analogy, SS provides extended capabilities such as GPS, a DVD system, Voice Commands, etc.

¡  Extended features include Enterprise search, Personalization, Enterprise Content Management, etc.

¡  Unlike SF, SS is not available for free

Page 13: SharePoint 2010 101 @ SPSVB

SharePoint Designer 2010

¡  Top-level sites can have multiple levels of sub-sites

¡  Site collection ¡  Aggregation of the top-level site and its sub-sites

¡  Site collections are independent of one another

¡  A top-level site without any sub-sites = site collection

Page 21: SharePoint 2010 101 @ SPSVB

¡  Stream content from external sources

¡  Custom Web Parts can be downloaded from various online resources
