Getting there… packing up the van…Chosen hybrid workloads will determine migration strategyExamples:
Store and sync workload– migrate home drives to One Drive For BusinessGood candidate for leveraging the new hi-speed APIs
Team site workload- net new and select legacy team sitesGood candidate for end-user driven migration
Existing workloads – CSOM approach

What about my on-prem plans? What you need to know…Much (not all) of the O365 innovations are coming to SharePoint 2016SupportabilityPerformanceProductivity
Some hybrid “plumbing” is coming to SharePoint 2013Will be available before SP2016 availability
SharePoint 2016 should offer the strongest hybrid storyTwins, separated at birth…
For SharePoint 2010 and earlier, think migration…As usual, no direct SP2010 > SP2016 migration, consider tools
Accountability in migration projects… All data should have a defined
ownerThis is a well established data governance principleGA uses the concept of “Primary” and “Secondary” concepts as well as custom roles that can be defined
Data owners are involved in many site collection specific processesApproving requests, recertification tasks etc.
Keeping this data current is difficultPeople leave organizations, change roles etc…
Data OwnershipWho is responsible for
the stuff in here?Are they still here and
willing to own it?
The “Election Process”= ownership discovery and recertification
Current owner
Backup owner
SC Administrators*
Full control users*
Contribute users*
“Claim request”• Are you willing to claim
ownership of this/these site collections?
• If not, can you suggest an owner?
Key Takeaways• Where are we going to place the
workloads• How are we going to get there• Accountability: input from the bussiness
side
