15 Analyze: Decision Points Content Analysis File Shares Exchange Public Folders Notes Databases Existing SharePoint farms Web Content Other lines of business applications Who is involved? Stakeholder(s) (Accountability) Business Drivers (Awareness) Information Technology (Accessibility) Individual(s) (Owner) Where is our content? Hosted or In House Centralized or Decentralized Local or Abroad

16 Analyze: Decision Points Content Analysis How much content? How large? How many layers? (Web Applications, Site Collections, Sites) Content Types, Metadata? CTH? Security Levels Workflows Linked Information M.U.D.R (Systems and Content) Maintain Upgrade Dispose Replace

17 Analyze: Decision Points Service Applications Analysis Search Managed Metadata Secure Store (must be done before BCS) BCS User Profiles PerformancePoint

18 Analyze: Decision Points Custom Code WSP Event receivers Apps (if 2013 to Online) Workflows Etc 3 rd Party Tools

19 Analyze: Action Points Action Items Roles and Responsibility Matrix Content Inventory Worksheet Security Report Decision: Build or Buy migration tools AND services

20 Step 2 Plan your battle

21

22 Private Cloud Full Access Farm Solutions Sandbox Solutions $$ Expensive to run Expensive to maintain Traditional We know what we know We expect innovation and great new features

23 Azure VMs for you needs If you re used to a virtual environment, you re ready for Azure A few quirks Full Access Farm Solutions Sandbox Solutions $$ Pricier Not clear on upfront cost

24 SharePoint Online Limited Access No Farm Solutions Limited Sandbox Solutions More script and CSOM code is being added $$ Totally based on access AND seats Usually cheaper that the other options Features and Support New Features come online first Updates are almost every quarter Good support from MS and the partners

25 Hybrid Solution Online + On-premises Online + Azure Azure + On-Premises

26 Upgrade Scenarios Gradual Upgrade Database Attach Upgrade In-Place Upgrade

27 Database Upgrade Usually cheaper that the other options All content databases Search administration BDC Managed Metadata PerformancePoint Secure store User Profile databases

28

29 Identify SPO Gaps Federation Midsize Business plan or higher for AD integration Midsize, Enterprise E1 or higher for Yammer Migration costs Based on size and number of items Lots of vendors, some are the same core engine Farm Features Farm solutions are not supported in Office 365 Need to know what is in the farm, and where they are being used, to create a remediation plan 3 rd party solutions App Store is rich with many solutions

30 Real world content Most companies have content that is: Out of date Duplicated Difficult to find Would benefit from: delete/archive/migrate triage reorganization tagging with metadata

31 Plan: Decision Points Where will the content go? Web Applications Site Collections Sites Pages Libraries What will the content do? Policy Management Business Process Search ability Metadata Communicate and Train!

32 Remediation Why is remediation required? What to remediate? How to remediate?

33 Why remediation is required Some customizations: Cannot be migrated as is Some content: Cannot be migrated Should not be migrated

34 Content remediation

35 Customization remediation Branding Solutions User Interface Components Provisioning Solutions Other Built-in Functionalities Content Types and Site Columns Integration/ Maintenance Solutions

36 Use OneDrive For Business Migrate your MySite and personal files Personal Sites must be created first before you migrate Bulk migration requires an account to be added to the personal sites Use PowerShell to add a migration account to the admin group for individual personal sites Remove when done with migration Bulk Site creation is available through CSOM API

37 Execute your migration

38 Choosing your migration approach Self-service migration Manual Tools-based migration Manual/auto using tools Complex migration Includes custom code Involve experts

39 Steps to migration Migrate your Service Applications First

40 Service Apps Online Search Consider Hybrid Search MMS You want to consider 3 rd party tools BCS You need Hybrid environment PerformancePoint PowerBI, PowerView User Profile O365 Groups Profiles AD Sync On-premises Search Consider Hybrid Search MMS, Secure Store, BCS, PerformancePoint, User Profile Consider DB Upgrade

41 Migration considerations The migration to the cloud must be performed remotely User identities are different

42 Execute: Code Migration Do you really want to migrate? Use OOB if possible Rebuild if needed Test against trial content Finalize and lock down code deployment

43 Execute: Content Migration Triage your content Assess Reconfigure your scripts/strategy Try again Follow your Plan Divide and Conquer Delta Migration

44 Execute: Content Migration NO migration is 100% success

45 Assess: Action Points Assess your content Re-run migration for missing content How is the current state performing/growing? Storage Security Performance Event Log

46 Sustain: Action Points What is your disaster recovery plan? SPO, No action On-Premises, Plan and implement a DR site Turn off old farm, but do not kill it What are our growth metrics? How we will manage issue tracking and support?

47 In Closing

48 Recap Analyze Plan Schedule Communications Hybrid strategy Triage the content Remediate Migrate Assess Sustain

49 Keys to success People Source system knowledge (System X) Target system knowledge (SharePoint Online) Knowledge Development Knowledge management How to structure the data Realistic timelines Commitment Strong steering committee
