Introduction to SharePoint
The term SharePoint is often used informally to refer two things:
1. Microsoft technology (Windows SharePoint Services) and
2. Microsoft product (Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007).
Windows SharePoint Services is a technology built on Microsoft
Windows Server, which may be used by any IT department to run
their enterprise network. Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 gives a
basic set of features you can use to set up team sites and facilitate
collaboration among team members.
Microsoft Office SharePoint Server is a Microsoft server product that
extends the features available in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 to
provide enterprise-scale support for an organizations content
publishing, content management, records management, or business
intelligence needs.

Introduction to SharePoint Server 2003
About personal context
Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003 creates a portal site
that remembers who you are and what information you care about and
work with. Based on Web Part Pages technology, SharePoint Portal
Server delivers customization and personalization that is flexible,
secure, and reliable. SharePoint Portal Server provides a rich set of
features focused on ensuring that users have easy access to relevant
information from a variety of entry points.
o Web Part Pages and Web Parts SharePoint Portal Server
provides site managers with a flexible policy for personalization
and customization. Site managers can customize the portal site to
users based on specific criteria. Portal site users can personalize
the site to facilitate collaboration or to provide custom views of
their projects, including by using Web sites based on Microsoft
Windows SharePoint Services to facilitate team collaboration.
o Audiences SharePoint Portal Server allows you to target
content to people according to their membership in a particular
audience. By default, SharePoint Portal Server includes an
audience called "All portal users." In addition to this audience,
you can create other audiences, such as by department or security
group. These audiences can span one or more portal sites in a
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-server-help/?CTT=97&lc=en-us&webpartid=WP101834382http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint-server-help/?CTT=97&lc=en-us&webpartid=WP101834382 -

deployment. After you create audiences, you can target content in
the portal site for viewing by one or more specific audiences. By
default, you can display targeted content on the home page and
on My Site.
o User profiles User profiles allow you to search for and
connect with people within your organization based on
information people publish about themselves. Index and search
services use the profile information to improve search results.
You can import user profile information directly from Microsoft
Active Directory directory service or enter it manually. You canalso customize the default user profile page by adding properties
according to the needs of your organization or to map to Active
Directory data, such as Territory or Geography.
o My Site My Site is a personal SharePoint site created in the
portal site that provides personalized and customized information
for you, including content targeted to you based on your
membership in a particular audience. User profile information is
used to generate personal sites.
o Alerts SharePoint Portal Server can alert you about new or
updated information on topics that match your interests. You can
choose to be alerted to content you find useful, such as
documents, news or other areas, or a set of search results. After
you create an alert, SharePoint Portal Server notifies you when
content is modified or new content matching your criteria is
available. In the case of documents, alerts can notify you when
Web discussion comments are added. You can view your alerts
-
8/8/2019 Share Point Server

and alert results directly from My Site. You can also choose to
receive alert results by e-mail
About connected collaboration
Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003 facilitates easy,
connected collaboration across an enterprise organization. It enables
people to work together on documents, projects, and tasks and to
leverage best practices by using the combined collaboration features of
Microsoft SharePoint Products and Technologies. Index and search
services, as well as newly introduced people services, allow you to
increase efficiency by finding relevant people, teams, sites, and other
information.
Finding and organizing sites, people, and other information
o Index and search
Search SharePoint Portal Server provides a
search feature that finds all types of content people,
documents, sites, and other items on the portal site
based on keywords you enter. Search can find content
stored in different sources, such as Web sites, file systems,
mail servers, and databases. The results can be organized
in different ways, such as by site, area, or date. For a more
specific search, you can use the advanced search option to
search by properties of items, to sort results by factors
other than relevance, and to set other advanced search
options.
Best Bets Best Bets enhance search efficiency
and provide guidance to users by directing them to people,
sites, documents, or other items considered particularly
http://togglediv%28%27divexpcollasst_765316800%27%29/http://togglediv%28%27divexpcollasst_765316800%27%29/ -
8/8/2019 Share Point Server

relevant to their search. SharePoint Portal Server displays
Best Bets at the top of a search results list.
Site Directory The Site Directory is the easiest
way to add content to the portal site for searching. When a
user adds a site, they have the option to include its contents
in search results. A search administrator can have sites
automatically approved for searching or can manage
approval for each site. After approval, a site is indexed and
its contents appear in search results.
Alerts You can ask to be alerted when changes
occur to the results for a specific search.
o Areas
To make it easy for users to navigate, browse, and
find what they need, you can divide portal site content into
areas. Areas let you organize content from documents
to people to sites into sets of related information even
though the content can be stored in different sources and
formats. To control all of the content in an area, the portal
site administrator can assign a manager for the area. The
manager can then control what content appears in the area
and who has access to it.
o People services
User profiles User profiles allow you to search for and
connect with people within your organization based on
information they publish about themselves. Index and search
-
8/8/2019 Share Point Server
9/48
services use the profile information to improve search
results.
My Site My Site is a personal SharePoint site created in
the portal site that provides personalized and customized
information for you, including content targeted to you based
on your membership in a particular audience.
Audiences You can target content to a specific audience
based on a user's job or task. For example, in an area called
Human Resources, a site administrator or the manager of
that area can choose to add a news item targeted to all new
employees that directs them to the New Employee Benefits
site.
Sharing, collaborating, publishing, and managing
content
SharePoint Portal Server enables you to easily share information,
leverage best practices, and work together with others on documents,
projects, and other efforts. Some of the ways you can do that are by:
o Creating Web sites based on Microsoft Windows SharePoint
Services
Windows SharePoint Services allows you to create
a Web site by selecting a template that best suits the
project. SharePoint Portal Server includes a diverse
collection of templates to meet business needs.. If you
work with external customers or partners, or if you have
users who need to access data from outside of your
organization's firewall, SharePoint Portal Server allows
both internal and external users to view and interact with
-
8/8/2019 Share Point Server
10/48
the same content and data. After the sites are created,
SharePoint Portal Server can search these sites the same
way it searches other content on the portal.
o Managing, publishing, and collaborating on documents
SharePoint Portal Server offers a number of
features that make it easy to find, organize, and work
together on documents. A document library offers a central
place to store documents and track changes, My Site is a
personal site where you can add links to documents you
work with often, the Topics area lets you organizedocuments under different topic headings, and Microsoft
Windows SharePoint Services Document Workspaces
offer a place for collaborating on documents with others.
About the portal site
The portal site offers a centralized access point for finding and
managing information. You can use a Web browser with the portal
site to perform tasks and search the portal. The portal site provides
access to information stored inside and outside your organization,
allowing users to find people, sites, documents, and other content
regardless of location or format. It also facilitates people working
together on documents, projects, and other efforts by using the
combined collaboration features of Microsoft SharePoint Products and
Technologies.
-
8/8/2019 Share Point Server
11/48
You can customize the home page of the portal site to display
organizational news and other important information. From the portal
site, users can perform tasks such as:
Searching for information stored in many different places and in
many different formats
Browsing through content by areas, which divide content into
sets of related information so it's easier for users to find what
they want
Creating a personal site, called My Site, that provides a personal
view of the portal information that's relevant to the user and that
lets the user share information with others in the organization
Asking to be alerted to new or changing information, such as new
matches to a search query, changes to content in an area, or a new
site added to the Site Directory
Creating or linking to Web sites, including those based on
Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services, with collaboration
features that let you facilitate projects, document development,
and meeting organization
The portal site uses Web Part Page technology to organize and
display information. A Web Part Page consists of reusable,
customizable Web Parts such as Search, News, and
Announcements. You can easily add or remove Web Parts to
customize the portal site for your organization.

About integrated enterprise
Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003 provides an
architecture that addresses the most demanding performance needs.
By using the latest technologies, SharePoint Portal Server provides a
centralized, unified interface for enterprise users and highly flexible
deployment options.
Microsoft .NET enterprise, scalable, distributed
architecture SharePoint Portal Server is built on the .NET
Framework, which is fast and scalable and uses ASP.NET,
common language runtime, Web Forms and Web Part Pages, and
a secure infrastructure to deliver better performance and greater
integration. Through its flexible deployment options from
single server to server farm configurations SharePoint Portal
Server is designed to have high availability and manageability.
Business applications SharePoint Portal Server can present
specific applications and customized content based on the users
functional group and organizational role.
Delegated administration The portal site administrator can
assign different managers for areas in the portal site. The content
manager can then control what content appears in the area and
who has access to the area.
Single sign-on The single sign-on service is an authentication
process that permits a user to enter one name and password to
access multiple applications.

The following list offers examples of how specific 2007 Office release
programs work with Office SharePoint Server 2007:
Microsoft Office PowerPoint 2007 Create a library of PowerPoint
slides that can be shared with other users on an Office SharePoint Server
2007 site.
Microsoft Office Access 2007 Take a SharePoint list offline and
use the reporting features in Office Access 2007 to view the data and
create reports while travelling. Forms and reports that use the SharePoint
list are fully interactive and Office Access 2007 can later synchronize
the local list with the online list when you bring your laptop back online.
Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 Take document libraries offline.
SharePoint folders are displayed just as other Outlook folders are.
Microsoft Office InfoPath 2007 Design browser-compatible form
templates, publish them to an Office SharePoint Server 2007 site, and
enable them for use in a Web browser.
Microsoft Office Excel 2007 Save worksheets on a SharePoint site
so that users can access them by using a browser. You can use these
worksheets to maintain and efficiently share one central, up-to-date
version, while helping to protect any proprietary information, such as
financial models, that is embedded in the worksheet.
Microsoft Office SharePoint Designer 2007 Create and customize
Office SharePoint Server 2007 sites and workflows. Create your own
master pages and content pages, so that your site has a consistent look
and feel, or customize sites by using the latest ASP.NET technology,
established Web standards such as Extensible Hypertext Markup
Language (XHTML) code, and cascading style sheets.

Office SharePoint Server 2007 and Windows SharePoint Services
Windows SharePoint Services is a technology that is included in MicrosoftWindows Server 2003. Windows SharePoint Services helps teams stay
connected and productive by providing easy access to the people,
documents, and information that they need to make well-informed decisions
and get work done.
Office SharePoint Server 2007 relies on the Windows SharePoint Services
3.0 technology to provide a consistent, familiar framework for lists andlibraries, site administration, and site customization. Any features that are
available in Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 are also available in Office
SharePoint Server 2007.
However, Office SharePoint Server 2007 offers enhanced and additional
features that are unavailable on a Windows SharePoint Services site. For
example, both Office SharePoint Server 2007 and Windows SharePointServices include site templates for collaborating with colleagues and setting
up meetings. However, Office SharePoint Server 2007 includes a number of
additional site templates that are related to enterprise and publishing
scenarios. Similarly, Office SharePoint Server 2007 enhances the search
-

technology from Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 to include features that
are useful for employees in large organizations, such as the ability to search
for business data in SAP, Siebel, and other business applications.
Collaboration
By using the following features in Office SharePoint Server 2007, you can
work more efficiently and effectively with other people in your organization:
Use site templates to collaborate or manage meetings When you create
a new Office SharePoint Server 2007 site, you can start by selecting one of
several different kinds of site templates for collaborating with other people
and managing meetings. The site templates in the Collaboration group are
designed to help teams within an organization work on projects and
collaborate on documents. For example, by using the Document Workspace
site template, you can work with other people on a document or a set of
documents. The site templates in the Meetings group are designed to help
teams within an organization manage different kinds of meetings. Thetemplates in this group support everything from basic meetings to decision-
focused meetings or even social events.
Share documents, contacts, tasks, and calendars You can synchronize
your Office SharePoint Server 2007 calendar with Office Outlook 2007. You
can enter all-day events and specify more types of repeating, or recurring,
events. You can track team projects more effectively with visual day andmonth views.
Brainstorm easily with wiki sites A wiki site enables you to brainstorm
ideas, collaborate on a team design, build an encyclopedia of knowledge, or
just gather routine information in a format that is easy to create and modify.
-
8/8/2019 Share Point Server
17/48
Your team members can contribute to wikis from their browsers they
don't need a word processor or special technical knowledge.
Share ideas with blogs A blog, or weblog, consists of frequent short
posts that are displayed in order, starting with the most recent post. With
Office SharePoint Server 2007, it just takes a few clicks to create a blog,
post to a blog, subscribe to updates to a blog, or customize a blog.
Receive updates to lists and libraries with RSS Lists and libraries use
Really Simple Syndication (RSS) technology, so that members of your
workgroup can automatically receive updates. RSS is a technology that
enables people to receive and view updates orfeeds of news, blogs, and
other items of interest in a consolidated location.
Manage projects You can create a Project Tasks list, which includes a
Gantt chart. A Gantt chart is a type of visual overview of project tasks that
you can use to monitor the dates and progress of team tasks.
Get mobile access to content You can view portals, team sites, and lists
on a mobile device to help you stay current on team projects and tasks when
you are travelling. For example, lists appear on phones (or other
telecommunications devices that support international standards) in a
simplified text format, with a link to scroll through the content of each page.
Send e-mail to Office SharePoint Server 2007 You can use an e-mail
program to participate in discussions, meetings, and documents on an Office
SharePoint Server 2007 site. Just as you send e-mail messages to your team
to discuss tasks and projects, you can also send e-mail messages to an Office
SharePoint Server 2007 site or to a specific list or library.
-
8/8/2019 Share Point Server

Manage documents and some types of lists offline You can take your
important work with you wherever you go. With Office Outlook 2007, you
can work offline on files in a library and items in the following types of lists:
calendars, contacts, tasks, and discussions. When you connect back online,
you can update your files on the server. List items are updated automatically.
Search
Finding the right information or person is what search is all about. You can
use the powerful search-related features in Office SharePoint Server 2007 to
find exactly what you are looking for, such as the people who have theexpertise that you need to get your job done.
Search from the Search Center The Search Center site provides a central
location for initiating queries and browsing search results. If you add
information about yourself to your My Site page, other people in your
organization can use the Search Center to locate you, information about your
projects, and your contacts.
Find documents on your intranet You can search for documents that
contain a specific word or phrase, that are written in a specific language, that
are created in a specific application, or that have specific properties.
Find people on your intranet Finding the right person can be critical for
getting things done quickly. You can search for someone by name, or you
can use other profile details, such as skills, current projects, or title. You can
also search for people in your organization's enterprise applications.
Find business data in enterprise applications The Search features in
Office SharePoint Server 2007 can help you find information in enterprise

applications such as SAP and Siebel, or in custom databases that were
created for your organization.
Content management
Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 provides the foundation for document
management tasks, such as versioning, auditing, and workflow. Office
SharePoint Server 2007 extends these capabilities to deliver enhanced
document authoring, business document processing, Web content
management and publishing, records management, policy management, and
support for multilingual publishing.
In Office SharePoint Server 2007, content management is divided into three
categories: document management, records management, and Web content
management.
DOCUMENT MANAGEMENT
Document management features determine how documents in yourorganization are created, reviewed, published, and accessed. With Office
SharePoint Server 2007, it is possible to enforce appropriate policies at
every step of the document life cycle, use centralized repositories for storing,
managing, and accessing documents, and use labels and barcodes to
efficiently track documents.
RECORDS MANAGEMENT
Records management is the process of collecting, managing, and disposing
of corporate records (information deemed important for the history,
knowledge, or legal defense of a company) in a consistent and uniform
-

20/48
manner based on an organization's policies. These policies are shaped by the
type of work that the organization does, the kinds of legal risks it faces, and
the laws and regulations that govern it. Office SharePoint Server 2007
introduces a new set of features for creating and supporting formal records
management capabilities in your organization.
WEB CONTENT MANAGEMENT
Office SharePoint Server 2007 includes many features that are useful for
designing, deploying, and managing enterprise intranet portals, corporate
Internet presence Web sites, and divisional portal sites. By using these
features, employees in your organization can create and publish Web content
in a timely manner, which can reduce the cost and overhead of managing
multiple sites.
