Request Management• Enables SharePoint to process incoming requests

according to configurable rules• Run in integrated mode for most environments• Run in dedicated mode for large environments and

multiple farms• Consists of three components:

Request Throtting and Routing Request Prioritization Request Load Balancing

• Create routing rules and throttling rules to prioritize requests and maintain service levels


Service Applications• The Application Management Service manages licenses

and permissions for SharePoint apps• SharePoint Translation Services provides automated,

machine-based translation of documents and content• The Work Management Service aggregates task data

from other business platforms in SharePoint My Sites• Office Web Applications and Web Analytics are no longer

service applications in SharePoint 15


Office Web Applications• Office Web Applications is now a separate server product• You can scale your Office Web Applications and

SharePoint deployments independently• One Office Web Applications farm can serve multiple

SharePoint farms• Use Windows PowerShell to associate your SharePoint

farm with an Office Web Applications farm


SharePoint Apps• A new way of distributing and exposing functionality

through the SharePoint UI• App logic can run in the cloud or in the local environment• Apps can be purchased or downloaded from the Office

Marketplace• The Corporate Catalog site collection makes apps

available across a SharePoint web application• Apps can only access SharePoint functionality through

the CSOM


Upgrading to SharePoint 2013• Database attach upgrade is the only supported upgrade

path from SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint 151. Create a new SharePoint 15 server farm2. Migrate your content databases3. Perform the upgrade

• Upgrade of servers and databases is now separate from upgrade of site collections Site collections can continue to run in SharePoint 2010 mode Platform supports both SharePoint 15 and SharePoint 2010

version of most components and resources


Security and Identity ManagementAuthentication in SharePoint 2013SharePoint 2013 and OAuth 2.0Application Authentication and Authorization• Server to Server Authentication


Authentication in SharePoint 2013• Claims-based authentication is now the default option• Classic authentication mode has been deprecated• Three types of claims-based authentication are supported

Windows claims FBA claims SAML claims

• Distributed Cache service tracks FedAuth cookies• Improved logging and diagnostics for authentication


SharePoint 2013 and OAuth 2.0• OAuth enables users to share specific resources with

third parties without sharing their access credentials• Third parties are issued with an access token• An access token grants access to a specific resource for a

defined period of time (for example 30 minutes)• SharePoint 15 implements and extends OAuth 2.0 for two

scenarios: Application authentication and authorization Server to server authentication


Application Authentication and Authorization

Polls


Server to Server Authentication• Enterprise functionality relies on server applications

sharing information on behalf of users• The S2S STS issues access tokens that enable SharePoint

to retrieve or provide information on behalf of users• PowerShell is used to configure trust relationships

between SharePoint, Exchange, and Lync
