Freelance SharePoint Consultant and Trainer

October 10, 2008 by Joel Jeffery

I’ve been busy of late, reinventing myself a bit.

If you search for Microsoft Technical Due Diligence on Google, I’m there at link #5. Which is quite cool.

But if you search for SharePoint consultant or trainer, I’m nowhere as far as Google goes. So I’ve got to do something about that.

I’m always interested in SharePoint solution architecture, development and consulting roles. I can also offer on site, bespoke training for SME and corporate customers looking to cross-train their development teams to Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 – MOSS – and Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 – WSS.

If you’re interested in bespoke SharePoint training or consultancy coming to you, check out my details here: http://www.jfdiphoenix.co.uk/sharepoint+training.aspx

#spthingaday 003 - Information Architecture. Folders are evil. Use metadata. #SharePoint, #Office365..
On a fileshare, all you have is path and filename. That's the only axis by which you can classify your stuff. So you nest folders, within folders, within folders. Then you pack the filename with extra bits of information - like the initials of the last editor, or the version number.
You don't need to do this in SharePoint. Use metadata.
Add columns to your libraries. Text columns, number columns, choice columns, managed metadata columns. Each file can have several of these values simultaneously. But a file can only live in one folder at a time.
Use metadata.

#spthingaday 060 - SharePoint Search. Changing the Search Topology. #SharePoint, #SharePointSearch.. The Search Service in SharePoint on-premise is made up of six components.

Crawl, Content Processing, Index, Analytics, Query and Administration.

Each of these components can be placed on one or more servers in your Farm.

To make any one Search component support high availability, you need to make sure there are at least two servers in your Farm running it.

SharePoint Server 2010 had only 3 types of component, and Microsoft let you manage their placement via Central Admin, in the browser.

From SharePoint 2013 onwards, this was deemed too difficult to express graphically.

For SharePoint 2013 and 2016, topology changes need to be made via PowerShell.

Tomorrow, we'll look at just what PowerShell cmd-lets you need to use.
