Microsoft SharePoint

Microsoft SharePoint 2010 is a web application platform developed by Microsoft for small to large organizations. It is designed as a centralized replacement for multiple web applications and supports various combinations of enterprise website requirements. It is typically associated with web content management and document management systems.

SharePoint’s multi-purpose platform allows for managing and provisioning of intranet portals, extranets and websites, document management and file management, collaboration spaces, social networking tools, enterprise search, business intelligence tooling, process/information integration, and third-party developed solutions. SharePoint can also be used as a web application development platform.

SharePoint is designed to be highly scalable. It is capable of supporting multiple organizations on a single ‘server farm.’ Microsoft sells on-premise versions of SharePoint and also provides SharePoint as a cloud computing solution, as part of BPOS and Office 365.

SharePoint 2010 – The Business Productivity Platform
MPS Partners views SharePoint 2010 as “human middleware.” It provides a platform for connecting business users with key corporate information that resides throughout the organization and with people spread throughout the world. SharePoint 2010 is a series of tools and technologies focused in six distinct areas:

• Sites – Think of SharePoint 2010 Sites as a “one-stop shop” for all your business websites. It provides a full set of tools that your people can use to create any kind of site, plus a single infrastructure that simplifies site management.
