THE PROBLEM
Microsoft SharePoint
Environment
NOT SCALABLE
SharePoint allows for the quick and easy creation of central document repositories accessible from anywhere.
However, customers face several challenges:
• SharePoint proliferation
• Data growth and redundancy (another silo)
• Difficulty searching across SharePoint sites
• Increasing management costs and complexity
• Infrastructure costs (servers, licenses, backup hardware and software)
• Lengthy backup and restore processes
• Scarcity of SharePoint expertise
• Lack of compliance, governance and security practice

IMPACT TO BUSINESS
Financial impact
• Expensive storage for SQL server
• High management cost due to long
backup cycles of database
• Increased license and hardware costs
Operational impact
• Large SQL server database can impact
SharePoint performance
• As data increases, multiple SQL servers
are required
