Summary
New features in SP1

Seamless connection to OneDrive for Business in Office 365
What’s great about this is that it makes it so much easier for SharePoint 2013 on-premises customers to use OneDrive for Business in the cloud alongside their existing SharePoint deployment.
OneDrive for business in the cloud gives every user 25GB of storage, which is a good reason to use this hybrid setup.
New functionality allows IT administrators to selectively configure redirection of OneDrive for Business, sites, and pages to the cloud.
SP1 – provides you with a hybrid setup of OneDrive from Office 365 with a OnPremise SharePoint Solution.
Microsoft gives every user a 25gb OneDrive setup, which is pretty awsome
Microsoft tries to «push» the users to the cloud with this setup, by giving the users good reasons to do this move.

Seamless connection to OneDrive for Business in Office 365
Just remember if you choose to Redirect the Sites pages to Office 365 – the sites users follow on premise will not appear on the page
• OneDrive now replaces SkyDrive in the top link bar. Included with this is Yammer, if you activate the Yammer feature on-premesis via Central Administration.

Yammer
Organizations of all sizes are using Yammer. SP1 makes it easy for IT to replace the out-of-the-box SharePoint 2013 social experience (Newsfeed) with Yammer.
Using simple controls in SharePoint 2013 Central Administration, IT can choose to activate (or deactivate) Yammer, redirecting users to their established Yammer network.
SP1 – provides you with a hybrid setup of Yammer with a OnPremise SharePoint Solution.
This redirect the users to established yammer network, but requires that the onPremise servers are connected to the wire
Microsoft tries to «push» the users to the cloud with this setup, by giving the users good reasons to do this move.
• When you click on the Yammer link, you’ll be directed to /_layouts/15/Yammer.aspx and be asked to log in. That’s about it…
Yammer integration
• Once Yammer is activated, the SharePoint “newsfeed” will now display this message when you visit your MySite.
Yammer integration
• When creating a new User Profile Service Application you are presented with the option to use Yammer for Social Collaboration!

JSON Light
SP1 includes notable improvements that support developers.
SP1 introduces support for JSON Light, allowing developers to choose which level of metadata they would like in a response: no metadata, minimal metadata, or full metadata (previously the only option in SharePoint 2013).

On April 3, this announcement appeared on the Knowledge Base article attached to SharePoint 20013 SP1, KB 2817429:
“ We have recently uncovered an issue with this Service Pack 1 package that may prevent customers who have Service Pack 1 from deploying future public or cumulative updates. As a precautionary measure, we have deactivated the download page until a new package is published. ”
Sorry – the update packagde of SharePoint 2013 SP1 is currently unavailable
Only way to upgrade now is a new install with the slipstreamed version.

At the same time, the version number of the KB article was increased to 4.0.Since then, we've had a more detailed (but not particularly enlightening) explanation posted on TechNet:
«We have recently uncovered an issue with the following Service Pack 1 packages that may prevent customers with Service Pack 1 from deploying future public updates. As a precautionary measure we have deactivated the download pages until new packages are published.»
• SharePoint Foundation SP1: KB 2817439• SharePoint Server 2013 SP1: KB 2817429• Project Server 2013 SP1: KB 2817434• Office Web Apps Server 2013 SP1: KB 2817431• SharePoint Server Language Pack SP1: KB 2817438• SharePoint Foundation Language Pack SP1: KB 2817442
Upgrading SharePoint 2013To: SharePoint 2013 SP1 – Two alternatives.
1. Install SharePoint 2013 service-pack 1 on all servers.
2. Install SharePoint 2013 Language pack service pack 1 on all servers
3. Complete the upgrade with psconfig/config-wizard to complete on all servers
4. Install Windows 2012 R2 on all servers
Alternative 1:
1. Patch SharePoint 2013 Farm to SP1
2. Install SharePoint 2013 service-pack 1 on all servers if not already done. Without SP1 we can’t run Windows 2012 R2 with SharePoint 2013 (and be supported at least).
3. Next, complete the upgrade with psconfig/config-wizard to complete the upgrade process. If a server hasn’t been fully patched done yet you’ll see a warning about software version mismatches.
Upgrade to SP 1
• Windows 2012 is perfectly capable of mounting local ISO files as a virtual disc. Click the ISO, then run setup when the ISO is mounted.

Make sure you install the GUI Windows only. SharePoint doesn’t support server core.
Make sure you select “upgrade” as it’s pretty much the entire point of this article/process.

Windows Upgrade Compatibility Check
The compatibility check will point out the Hyper-V device drivers might not work after the upgrade. We don’t mind. If you need to restart for any reason, setup will insist you do that 1st too here.
If your server has 4 million apps installed, these may cause problems with the upgrade. As this is my “production” environment, there is just SharePoint + prerequisites so this is what I see:

Running Setup & Upgrading Windows 2012 to R2
Once passed the compatibility checks, Windows setup should basically keep itself busy for the rest of the process without any interruption needed

Setup will restart a couple of times.

Verify SharePoint Functionality & Fixing Errors As mentioned earlier, the upgrade to Windows
2012 R2 can leave SharePoint rather broken by default.
Specifically the Security Token Service can break because of a problem with then SharePoint farm certificate.
Click on “view these issues” and you might see something like this:

How to fix it!STS is likely broken and the cache-cluster probably needs a reboot to get it working again. Fix the cache cluster by removing and then re-adding each cache server in turn For STS errors, a simple psconfig upgrade command per failing server (psconfig -cmd upgrade -inplace b2b) should fix that problem up.If not run the following commands to rebuild your environment
35
psconfig -cmd services installpsconfig -cmd installfeaturespsconfig -cmd secureresources
1. Reinstall the Servers.
2. Install Windows 2012 R2 on all servers
3. Install SharePoint 2013 service-pack 1 on all servers.
4. Install SharePoint 2013 Language pack service pack 1 on all servers
5. Join the SP1 servers to the farm
6. Complete the upgrade with psconfig/config-wizard to complete on all servers
7. Remove the old 2013 servers from the farm
Alternative 2: My recommendation

How to succeed upgrading SharePointTest upgrade of all contentsTest, test and test againInvolve the business owners to early identify if the upgrade was a successCreate a log of activities and prioritize the error handlingsRepeat the process with upgrading until end result is acceptable.Expect that mistakes will happen, upgrade is never straight forward. Make sure to have a plan to resolve the problems. Or consider not upgrading at all, recreate the site instead
Scripted install of cumulative updates/SP1To save a lot of time during installation of cumulative updates / service pack,
take a look at Russ Maxwell powershell script to script the installation. This will save you a lot of time.
