SharePoint is not a
single server object but actually the result
of several layers of technology that must
properly interact with one another. Without
a deep understanding of these individual
layers, you run a high risk of not utilizing
the full potential of SharePoint as the basis for your
Intranet solutions. i3solutions has
extensive expertise with how the series of
SharePoint components can be used together
to optimize your SharePoint investment:
-
Windows SharePoint Services, a Windows
Server 2003 technology, is an engine for
delivering scalable, manageable, extensible
Web sites with document collaboration,
information sharing, and team productivity
tools.
-
Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server
2003, part of the Microsoft Office System,
provides a single point of access to people,
team, knowledge, and application resources
across the entire enterprise.
-
SharePoint Services' extensibility offerings
begin with Web Parts, ASP.NET-based building
blocks users can assemble at runtime into
customized pages that meet their specialized
needs. In addition to this, each SharePoint
site and its contents are accessible via
managed code and Web services, delivering
Web sites as programmable objects.
-
SharePoint Portal Server, being built on
Windows SharePoint Services, contains
additional object models and Web services
for user profiling, audience targeting,
content categorization, indexing and search,
single sign-on to line-of-business
applications, and much more.
-
Chart Web Part - The Chart Web Part can be
used to generate charts in the Windows
SharePoint Services environment. The Web
Part supports data coming from XML files and
Web Part Connections, and it generates
charts as either an server-side images or as
VML. This Web Part works great in
complementing the Data View Web Part to
provide a powerful data reporting story
-
Content
Management Server (CMS) and WSS Integration - This is a simple
placeholder that allows the author to select
documents from a WSS site and make them
available from CMS.
-
Performance
Implications of Windows SharePoint
Services can not be overlooked.
Server performance can be affected by many
variables; some are predictable, others are
not. For example, you can't always
anticipate periods of heavy demand on a week
to week basis, but you can usually predict
daily periods of heavy or light use.
