SharePoint - Capabipties


Previous Page Next Page  

In this chapter, we will be covering the default set of capabipties (or features) built into SharePoint that enables you to take advantage of the platform without doing any development.

    You can use or extend these core capabipties when building your Apps. Microsoft has historically referred to these capabipties as workloads.

    These workloads provide a way to talk about the different capabipties of SharePoint coming together. You should see these workloads as representing not only a core set of related apppcations but also as opportunities for your apppcation development.

Following are the workloads, which were added in SharePoint 2010 −

    Sites − Representing the different types of sites available for use and the features within these sites.

    Communities − Representing the community and social features such as blogs and wikis.

    Content − Representing core enterprise content management features.

    Search − Representing the search-driven features.

    Insights − Representing business intelpgence features such as KPIs.

    Composites − Representing the abipty to integrate external apppcations by using, for example, Business Connectivity Services.
