Welcome to Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010 Inside Out. Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010 is provided as a free download and provides a robust collection of services that can be used to build powerful web solutions. It forms the basis for a number of other SharePoint products such as SharePoint Server 2010 and Office 365, which incorporates Microsoft’s SharePoint 2010 cloud-based solution, called SharePoint Online.
SharePoint Foundation helps teams stay connected and productive by utilizing an infrastructure with which they can easily access the people, documents, and information that they need. With SharePoint Foundation, teams can create websites to share information and foster collaboration with other users. You can access content stored within a SharePoint site from a web browser and through desktop applications, such as Microsoft Office.
This book offers a comprehensive look at the features most people will use in SharePoint Foundation 2010 and serves as an excellent reference for users who need to understand how to accomplish what they need to do. In addition, this book provides useful information to advanced users and IT professionals who need to understand the bigger picture.
This Inside Out book is designed for readers who have some experience with SharePoint Foundation 2010 and are fairly comfortable finding their way around the product. You will need access to an installation of SharePoint Foundation 2010 or have the ability to install it on a server or in a virtual environment.
This book touches only briefly on some of the basic topics that you’ll find covered in more detail elsewhere (such as in Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Plain & Simple, Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010 Step by Step, and Microsoft SharePoint Designer 2010 Step by Step). We focus on techniques and topics that are likely to appeal to readers who have already mastered the many basics of this SharePoint 2010. Whether you are a business analyst, site owner, a server administrator, or a developer, there is something in this book for you.
