Join Matt Tinkler online as he discusses Portal Sprawl. Although SharePoint 2007 (MOSS 2007) is a powerful tool to build and support portal applications, there are certain issues that should be addressed early in the design and implementation of the product. If not, you could have an administrative nightmare on your hands. The flexibility and user friendliness of any application can also make it easy to duplicate extraneous files and functions. The failure to create an overall architecture that is easy to understand and maintain can lead to more than just headaches for the technology services areas and also frustrate end users.
This presentation will cover many of the basic issues facing a deployment of SharePoint, emphasizing the best techniques for optimizing flexibility without creating a maintenance nightmare. Like rabbits left on their own, without a little bit of planning or intervention, SharePoint sites can multiple out of control rapidly, eating a lot of resources.
