The Stay / Leave Moment

This presentation was originally done when only August Preview was available

SharePoint 2016 Beta 2 “just dropped” on Wednesday at noon!

I definitely am not 100% up to speed on all the additional features introduced w/Beta 2

SP2016 Vision & Value

Page 12: SharePoint 2016 Deep Dive

Modernize your on-premises infrastructure improving speed, scale, and user experiences. SharePoint Server 2016 brings cloud innovation to your datacenter so you can get the best of both worlds – speed and productivity for your users with flexibility and control for IT.

New user experiences enable users to quickly and productively consume new apps and experiences across devices and screens.

Improved User Experiences

Based on our learning from Office 365, SharePoint 2016 delivers a reliable software-defined infrastructure foundation that’s proven at scale with best in class hybrid experiences.

Cloud-Inspired Infrastructure

Integrated data-loss prevention and protection and with built-in and cloud connected compliance, security, and threat protection for both administrators and end users.

People-Centric Compliance

SP2016 Beta 2 is considered a “snapshot” of O365 features and functionality

This is still considered an “IT Pro Preview”

Hybrid play a HUGE part in some of the really rich functionality being introduced

Adios SharePoint Foundation

Standalone Install

ForeFront Identity Manager as part of User Profile Sync

Deprecated Excel Services

Trusted data providers, file locations, data connection libraries Unattended service account

Excel Web Access web part requires Office Online Server (Office Web Apps)

What’s missing.. What’s deprecated?

Upgrade vs Migration

Page 19: SharePoint 2016 Deep Dive

19

Similar to SharePoint 2013 – there is no real upgrade

Migration options: 3rd party tools Database attach, re-attach, upgrade

From SharePoint 2013 Light your old environment on fire

“The Upgrade”

Page 20: SharePoint 2016 Deep Dive

20

Microsoft is investing “heavily” in O365

Features will continue to be “Cloud First”

On-Premises will always lag behind cloud Might be released in Service Pack Hybrid Options Not until “next” SharePoint

We need to have the “Cloud / Hybrid Talk”

Now is a great time to inventory your environment!

What server side code do you currently have in your environment? What is it doing? Who wrote it? Does it HAVE to be server side code? What third party products have you purchased?

Do you have a business solution catalog? Which applications are business critical? Are they running workflows?

New Features & Improvementsfor Business Users

Page 24: SharePoint 2016 Deep Dive

Easily navigate across SharePoint through a consistent global app launcher experience users have become familiar with in Office 365, now for SharePoint 2016.

This global navigation will help make certain apps like Yammer, OneDrive, and Delve more of a seamless experience. Can quickly navigate between the cloud or on premise. It’s extensible.

Users can pin their own sites or developers can extend apps across Office 365 and on premises. You can also pin any sites to the sites page. Follow sites and their folders are more accessible.

They are also easier to get to through the app launcher global navigation previously mentioned.

Who likes Keyboard commands?? – Power Users!

The difficult to use ribbon has been simplified based on Microsoft usability testing for the tools users need most. These simple controls have been integrated into the default UI without having to click to find the ribbon. Image and Video previews now available in libraries by simply hover or click.

Keyboard shortcuts are provided for the following document tasks: Alt + N – New Alt + E – Edit Alt + U – Upload Alt + M – Manage Alt + S – Share Alt + Y – Synchronization

Simplified Usability

Sharing has been added to pages. This sharing experience of simply adding the users that you want to share the page with will automatically be added with permissions. This will simplify user permissions as well. It’s a concept that started in OneDrive that’s making it into sites.

This sharing behavior also consists of faces along with user friendly names. You may see these features grouped as people focused file storage and collaboration.

Share

Page 27: SharePoint 2016 Deep Dive

Use any characters you want. Want to use an & or + in the file name. It’s no problem. I see this also along with the features around durable links which is a bonus user feature.

So close…..

Also, Word Documents and Text files – still can’t be empty on upload.

Character Restrictions Removed

Page 28: SharePoint 2016 Deep Dive

What’s a Durable link? A Durable Link is a URL of Hyperlink to a Document stored in a Document Library in SharePoint

Server 2016. If Durable Links work in you Farm, you will see that links to Documents look like this: http://portal.sp2016.dev.portiva/documents/file.docx?d=wdfd593579df749e0ae79c0217e4bbde9 The magic happens with the URL parameter “?d=[…]“. This d is the durable link part. And if you

move or rename this document, the link you see here will continue to work and redirect you to the same document.

If this document is moved to a different Site or Document Library and you do NOT have access to this Site or Document Library, you will not gain access by using the original url you see here. You will be redirected to the proper document, where a Access Denied will be shown in this case.

A Document Library can have 30,000,000 documents, that’s never been an issue. However, many of you know that 5,000 seems to be the actual limit for many end users that don't know they had to index their columns.

The 5,000 view threshold is actually necessary, or your entire SharePoint would be slow down. It prevents SQL to lock the entire database really.

Instead of removing this unpopular threshold, they automated the creation of Indexed Columns. This means that technically the limit is still there, but you won’t have to worry about it.

Removed 5,000 View Threshold – not really

Project Server Delivering unified work, project, and portfolio management

with native-integration of Project Server in SharePoint Server 2016

Integrated Project Server brings project and portfolio management closer to the content that revolves around it

Project and Portfolio ManagementUnify collaboration and work, project, and portfolio management into a consolidated platform

Project Server 2016 natively integrated with SharePoint Server 2016

SharePoint 2016 makes site collection creation event faster

Define your master site collection

$DB = Get-SPContentDatabase -site http://sharepoint/sites/template

New-SPSiteMaster -ContentDatabase $DB -Template "STS#0"

New-SPSite http://sharepoint/sites/FastSite2 -ContentDatabase $DB -CompatibilityLevel 15 -CreateFromSiteMaster -OwnerAlias "MATFESS\Administrator"

Fast Site Collection Creation

Added 115 *Brand Spanking New* Commandlets!

I’ll recite them for you now…

Highlights: Lots of managing Project Server cmdlets Enable-SPVideoStreaming – likely integration with either O365/Azure Media

Get-SPAzureVideoServiceAccount << Switch-SPSitesToNewDatabase  (I think it’s like Move-SPSite but NO downtime!)
