Microsoft IT Hosted Services
• Regional SSP• Only MACs has access
• MOSS Child farms• Shared Hosting in each
region• Personal site host• Team site host• Offered at no cost
• Gold/Platinum child farms• Paid hosting farms• Support some
customization• Project Server
• Service in limbo• Still 2003 solution• Examining alternative
hosting options
• Extranet• Externally accessible sites• Designed for partner
collaboration• Product Showcase
• Host Header• Deprecated Service• Still WSS 2.0
• Shared Hosted Portal Farms• Deprecated Service• Many still SPS 2003
• WSS Child Farms• Deprecated Service• SKU to SKU upgrade
planned• Negotiating with WSS team
about no hosted WSS farms at Microsoft
SSP Farm Relationships
Profile Profile ChangeChange
ReplicationReplication
All regions have an SSP Farm
Regions crawl local content Redmond crawls all regional
content as well Profile changes made locally Profile changes replicated to
other SSP farms All LOB data imported into
profiles done in Redmond
Dedicated Shared Services Farm
AA PP
• Hosted services consumed by child farms• One per region• In Redmond we have a dedicated SQL
cluster, in regions this is shared SQL storage• All SharePoint 2007 sites consume from
shared services• Local farms can have a local SSP for Excel
services.
Child Farms• Several different configurations
• Multiple Web Front End Servers• Dedicated Search Target and dedicated
Application (Excel and Index) Servers• Combined Search Target/Application
Server• Load balanced and engineered to provide
redundant hosting• Child farms can have local shared service
providers for Excel• Hardware
• WFE (min 2 WFEs)• 32-bit or 64-bit• 1 or 2 Proc (Dual Core)• 4 to 16 GB RAM
• Excel (Application Servers)• 64-bit• 2 Proc (Dual Core)• 8 GB RAM

Child/SSP Farm Relationship
• All SharePoint 2007 properties consume from regional shared services.
• Communication between a child farm and the SSP farm is via data connections and web service calls
• The child farm will render even if the SSP farm is down but services like search, audiences, profile, and BDC will not work
• Child farms are within the same data center. Federation across the WAN is not supported. Latency must be less then 80 ms.
Service Tier Offerings• Platinum (In Progress)
• Dedicated Hardware• High value web properties• Has highest startup and monthly chargeback• Support most server side customizations
• Gold (Pilot in Feb)• Shared Hardware (up to 10 / farm)• Med – High value web properties• Has startup and monthly chargeback• Support server side customizations that permit
coexistance• Silver (Current service)
• Shared Hardware (1000’s / farm)• Any web site• No cost to users• Next to no server side customizations supported
Service Level Agreement
• IT Help technical support 24x7
• Normal priority (3) tickets resolved within 72 hours• Pri. 1 – 50+ user impact (4 hr)• Pri. 2 – 2+ user impact (24 hr)• Pri. 3 – Normal scheduled work
(3 d)• Pri. 4 – Low priority work (8 d)
• Availability 99.9% Goal• Maintain blocked file list• Business critical level of
service not mission critical• Broken customizations not
fixed by IT
• Databases are backed up once every 24 hours and retained for 14 days
• Site restores require GM Approval
• Maintenance window• Daily: 6 pm to 6 am local
server• Weekend: Fri 10 pm to Mon 6
am
• Quotas• Start (Default) – 500 MB• Grow to 1 GB• Grow up to 5 GB in 1 GB
increments
MSIT SharePoint Service Offering (December)
Data Current as of 12/2006
* Just over 12 TB total content stored in SharePoint at Microsoft
SharePoint 2007 Worldwide Server Inventory *
Data Current as of 12/2006

SQL Infrastructure
AA AA
AA PP
pp
Infrastructure• 64-bit, SQL 2005 infrastructure• Multiple Active, Single Passive, Single backup node
Hardware SKUs• HP D585 – 8-way machines with 8 GB RAM• Shared storage (SAN)
Backup• SQL backup to disk groups for drop drives• Pivot disk groups to backup node (p) for backup to tape or
near disk storage• Disk groups pivot back before SQL backups begin
Monitoring• Outsourced monitoring to another IT team within Microsoft
Search and Crawl
• Once upgrades complete, goal is to incrementally crawl min of once every 24 hours (regionally dependant, specifically SharePoint)
• Single MOSS index in each region
• Dedicated query servers on SSP farm process requests
• Average query performance is 2 seconds/query. Faster for simpler queries and slower for complex queries.
• We’re looking to add more RAM to our query servers to help with performance
• We use search via BDC to crawl some Siebel data
• Local farm help requires WSS search service
• To date we’ve indexed 20M in Redmond
• We take a tiered approach to crawl frequency
• Highest priority content crawled each day or more.
• Medium priority a few times a week.
• Lower priority content once a week.
• Performance goal is an average of 20 docs/second for SharePoint content over multiple crawls
• On average (month):• 575K Queries /month for Redmond
SSP
Excel Services
• Trusted Location “http://” setup for each silver farm
• Uses published low perms account to do data refresh
• 100 MB maximum file size• Uses both data connection libraries and
embedded connections• We have not yet implemented a request
process for new trusted locations• Warnings turned on and shown when
refreshing connections
InfoPath Forms Services
• Not an SSP feature but rather a farm feature
• Enabled on all 2007 child farms• We don’t currently support forms with
code on silver service• We will support this for platinum and
gold customers.• Required for workflow features• Uses the session state component of the
SSP
Profile Import
• Different Imports run in different regions• In all regions we
import AD data• In Redmond we
use BDC to import LOB data
• Incremental run every 24 hours
• Fulls run once a week
• Process 130K AD records
Profile Synchronization/My Sites
• 3 regional MySite hosts
• Users modify their own data (non-AD or BDC source) in local region
• Profile data used in local farm people search
• Indexed regularly by local SSP host
• Almost 55,000 personal sites world wide
• Custom code added to replication user supplied changes to other regions and BDC changes from Redmond
• Uses change log to push incrementally
• Change replicated world wide within seconds of user save.
• Reflected in search after next crawl
Other Services
• SSO – Not currently used• Document Conversion – Not currently used• Project Server – new service being defined,
not currently offered by Microsoft IT• ISA 2006 – used to access some properties
from Internet• Performance Point Server – working with
PG to determine how to offer Service• BDC – used sparingly, will make available
to Gold/Platinum customers
Monitoring
• Monitor environment with MOM v2 today
• Three teams:• DCOPs (Data Center)
• Monitors OS, Hardware, and Web Sites and Services MOM Pack
• 30 min response time on Web Sites and Services Issues (Service outage)
• 24/7/365 coverage
• MACS• Monitors with SharePoint 2007,
SharePoint 2003, WSS 2.0, WSS 3.0, IIS, MSCS, and DFS MOM Packs
• Pager system for critical alerts• Looking to outsource monitoring
and initial response
• PSIT SQL• SQL, DFS, and MSCS
monitoring of SQL servers• Backup/Restores of data
• We are in a transition phase• Migrating to System Center• Application monitoring is being
transitioned as we restructure monitoring teams
