This is your technical migration, i.e. the physical move of content and “bits”

This is the bulk of your migration – the planning,
reorganization, and transformation of your
legacy SharePoint environment

What is migration?
• Intranet• Extranet• Mobile• Cloud• New hardware
• More social media tools
• Dashboards• Search
Expanding your SharePoint
footprint
Moving to the
latest, greatest platform
Transforming what you
did with 2003/2007 to
meet your
organizational vision

Why migrations are difficult:
Migrations are phased
• Should not be determined by the technology you use
• Match the needs and timing of your content owners and teams
• Be flexible, moving sites and content based on end user needs, not the limitations of the technology
Migrationsare iterative
• Planning should not be limited by the number of migration attempts you make, or by the volume of content being moved
• Recognize the need to test the waters, to move sites, content and customizations in waves
• Allow users to test and provide feedback
Migrations are error prone
• There is no “easy” button for migration
• You can run a dozen pre-migration checks and still run into problems
• Admins and end users do things that are not “by the book”
• Watch for customizations, 3rd party tools, and line of business apps that run under the radar
Migrations are not the end goal
• Proper planning and change management policies will help you to be successful with your current and future migrations
• Your goals should be a stable environment, relevant metadata, discoverable content, and happy end users
