What is the size of environment (Online Boundaries)? From complex to simple Can exiting code run in SharePoint Online Can we refactor complex to standard Integrations Is or can existing integrations be public Can we move integrations to Windows Azure Third party in house Do you have the code Is it under support Changing of authentication model can be complex Plan to upgrade authentication model to claims Who owns the environment? Who manages the environment? Who has access to the environments servers? How skilled is your organization on the new version of SharePoint?

Possible to reduce downtime using mitigation processes Use Test runs to predict outages Know what performance you have and what you want Measure existing performance Measure target environment standard Measure target environment with customizations - baseline Should avoid URL changes whenever possibles Redirects in portals and sites Links from external systems Help users to find new links Create an application with from to parameters Plan to inform users about upcoming upgrade requirements/events Include info on what will happen Indicate when upgrade will occur Indicate when upgrade must be completed by Indicate when upgrade is finished Understand upgrade methods and processes Understand performance and downtime mitigation Gain experience and confidence in troubleshooting and validation Determine Business Case Information Assessment Design New Architecture Pre-Migration Considerations Perform Migration How to Migrate to Online Can our ALM platform be moved to the cloud TFS online Customization using the browser Customizations using supported tools and applications Access Excel Visio InfoPath SharePoint Designer Customizations using apps for SharePoint Other Download 3. party apps Develop apps for others Sandboxes solutions Still supported Use apps where possible Look and feel Appearance on information Display content from different data sources Customize workflows for business processes Connect SharePoint Online to an on-premises SharePoint Server 2013 deployment FIRST, TRY BROWSER- BASED OPTIONS THEN, TRY NO-CODE SOLUTIONS : THEN, CONSIDER CUSTOM CODE SOLUTIONS Change site logo, title and description Customize navigation Themes Apply custom css Use Design Manager -Master pages -Page layouts Visual Studio -Site pages -Ribon enhancements -Master pages Look and feel Appearance on information FIRST, TRY BROWSER- BASED OPTIONS THEN, TRY NO-CODE SOLUTIONS : THEN, CONSIDER CUSTOM CODE SOLUTIONS Edit text and images Add and customize web parts Custom views SharePoint Designer InfoPath Visual Studio -Site pages -Custom web parts Display content from different data sources FIRST, TRY BROWSER- BASED OPTIONS THEN, TRY NO-CODE SOLUTIONS : THEN, CONSIDER CUSTOM CODE SOLUTIONS Add standard web parts Excel and Excel Services Access 2013 and Access Service InfoPath Business Connectivity Services Visual Studio -Custom web parts Workflows for business processes FIRST, TRY BROWSER- BASED OPTIONS THEN, TRY NO-CODE SOLUTIONS : Use the available out- of-the-box workflow Change the workflow attributes, such as approvers, due date Visual Studio SharePoint Designer Third parties like Nintex Evaluate third party tools need to know: POC Costs Capabilities What need to be migrated What kind of throughput can you get in your environment use measures from POC How can you manage deltas Read-only on source Delta runs of tools and scripts Support Help (training, videos, wiki) Operations (o365 operations panel) Daily.
