And yet again, we have a Guest blogger on our blog - All About SharePoint. Today's blogger is - Mansi Khurana and she is a technical writer with more than 3 years
of experience. She has written various articles on SharePoint database recovery
software and various other technologies. And Today's Topic is - Feature Enhancements and Improvements in SharePoint 2013.
Rapid SharePoint adoption
accentuates the requirement of improvements and enhancements. Microsoft has
added many new features and improved the existing ones in SharePoint 2013,
let's read on to know.
Business Connectivity Services
Enhancements in Business Connectivity Services enable Office 2013 and SharePoint 2013 clients to get access to the data stored outside of the SharePoint environment, which is possible because of the support for OData. The SharePoint 2013 event listener features an event subscriber that enables custom code and SharePoint users to get notified when events occur in external storage system. SharePoint 2013 also supports apps that are designed for SharePoint. This support allows you to add relevant apps that do not affect the code of the system on which SharePoint server is running, resulting in enhanced security and easy installation and un-installation. Moreover, external list improvements enable users to sort, filter, or export other SharePoint lists.

Today blog is discussed by our guest blogger Alvin Ubiera. And it’s about JavaScript client-side object model (CSOM). It’s majorly focused on the basic operations and technologies of it. I find it quite an informative piece; so here I am sharing it with you all hope you find it interesting too.
In this article we will focus on using JavaScript client-side object model (CSOM) on a SharePoint 2013 Farm solution to do a basic operation (reading list data, and displaying it asynchronously in a web part).
The JavaScript CSOM was added to SharePoint 2010 . We will use it in a similar way in SharePoint 2013. If you have used this in SharePoint 2010 it will be similar concept for you. For users who are new to this concept please review the MSDN blog and library (as mentioned below).

In Today's I have decided to talk about a very general topic of SharePoint i.e. What SharePoint is all about and how it works etc. It will beneficial for who are looking for the basic information about. I would really appreciate if you could all suggest your views and thought over this topic. You can ask question and even give answers in order to keep the post alive and communicative. I would really appreciate the efforts. Nevertheless let's begin with today's post.
Managing those data and critical information sometimes create chaos in an organization. Those digital data and web pages are sometimes difficult to manage even using those external portals, and other automated tools. Then how to get rid of it? With the demand of advanced computer technology and complexities it’s important to look for a solution which can handle such situations.

There are many questions that arises whenever a new version is launched in the market. The first and the foremost question is “How it’s going to be beneficial for our business?”
Whenever you spend your hard earned money on anything, whether on development or even on an object it should justify that expenditure. So, let’s compare both of them that how its going to affect our enterprise platforms.
Main Highpoints
• If we look from a document collaboration point of view, the structures of both versions are the same. • The most noteworthy improvements in document management are in the user experience like drag and drop to upload any document and the facility to edit the managed metadata in a datasheet view. • The primary differences are in the social experiences, especially with discussion boards. The 2013 discussion board, it’s more and less like Facebook activity stream. • Other significant change is in searching capabilities.
Comparisons
1. Document collaboration: In 2010, it supports for enterprise content types and shared metadata so that attributes and structures can be maintained in one place and shared across the enterprise. Whereas in 2013, there is no difference as such in organizing the content but it have the drag and drop feature extra in it.
2. Searching: In 2013, it provides significant improvements in user experience. Visual display of contents as you hover in search results. It remember the searches that you have searched and show the documents that are already searched. Whereas in 2010, there is comprehensive enterprise search with the Boolean operators to create search queries.
3. Social computing: Where 2010 has limited capabilities, 2013 provides a wide range of Facebook like activity stream that allows you to post, reply and communicate easily with your colleagues and office mates.
4. Communities of Practice: In 2010, it must configure “out of the box” template to align with community objectives. And it have simplistic discussion list. Whereas, 2013 gives ability to categorize the conversations by topic and an image aligned to it. New “Community” site template is completely focused on conversations.
5. Workflow: In 2010, it has several “built in” workflows with additional options available in SharePoint Designer. Whereas in 2013, it has significant enhancements, including new ways to create and visualize workflows.
6. Collaborating with others outside the workgroup on individual documents: In 2010, it is difficult to do if a person (not on the team) doesn’t have the access to the team site. Only owner can grant permissions. Whereas in 2013, you have a share option which let you able to pass a piece of information to the other teams easily without interrupting the content or data. In this, users who request access to a site have an opportunity to explain why they need access so that site owners can make better decisions about whether or not to grant access.
7. Mobile Access: In 2010, there was mobile sites available but it was not accessible for different mobile devices. In 2013, they solved this problem and optimized it for different mobiles by having mobile application development in this version .
Additionally, SharePoint 2013 also provides cloud services to the user.
At the end, I would like to conclude, there are many software, applications and services available in the market, it’s you who have to look at the advantages in using these services if it gives you positive results and chances of progression upgrading is not a bad idea! Many of the companies have already switched over this version, and there are many companies who are not in this favor. So better seek a consult with experts and make one decision!

In the previous writing I shared about, How to manageMicrosoft SharePoint efficiently: Tips for IT managers. Today let’s talk about
some tips and tricks that can be used for successful SharePoint deployments. Keep
note, these tips are in no priority sequence –
1.Get Office 365: Using Office 365, it makes SharePoint far more reasonable and easy to implement and from this, you will have the great impression on all the smaller organizations.
2. The functionality: It starts with great functional analysis with the help of content management system, collaboration, search, business intelligence and portals that can represent all the mission-critical areas of effectiveness. It can assess each area for the functional fit within your organization.
3.Budgets should match the designed strategies: we all know putting money for resources, staff, later their trainings and change in management should match the goals of the organization that has set for its SharePoint environment.
4.Look for similar existing investments and be ready to streamline your portfolio accordingly: In this, it needs a standby or simultaneous strategy with the existing systems or a decision not to use SharePoint for any given workloads.
5.Be prepared for a period where you can have a little confusion: Yes, it’s true that it can lead to a chaos or confusion. User-generated content and user-developed applications will each provide some challenges but it will ultimately help the organizations to understand the greater value from SharePoint.
6.You have to support SharePoint and with its third-party add-ons: In this, SharePoint has some areas of very strong functionality and some areas where Microsoft's partner ecosystem must fill these cavities.
7.Don’t aim for any early moves but better understand the system: First implement these high-value workloads and establish operational stability and later you can move to any risky applications.
8. Integration is important and it should be done at a right time: The success of your IW completely depends on significant integration with those external line-of-business applications i.e. (AD&D) etc. for the data and other processes.
9.Customized development at first: Custom-made applications or codes are important and it should be designed in an environment which is under thorough and controlled style that does not compromise over workloads.
10. Deploy workloads only when you have the right skills to retain them: If you don't have the right resources to handle any particular workload, postponed it until you can do it correctly.
I hope these tips would help you for better working and functioning. Next time I share something interesting or some news regarding SharePoint. Till then make your system work flawless and smoothly. Adios!
