Challenges today with SharePoint 2010

Custom code on server Root cause of most SharePoint outages / issues Lots to deploy Requires a big server touch Not possible in hosted environments

Sandbox Possible in hosted environment Limited set of things you can do

In both, developers must know SharePoint API

SharePoint App Model

SharePoint applications no longer live in SharePoint Custom code executes in the client, cloud or on-prem Apps are granted permissions to SharePoint via OAuth Apps communicate with SharePoint via REST / CSOM Acquire apps via centralized Marketplace

Corporate Marketplace Public Marketplace (via submission process) APIs for manual deployment

App Fundamentals

Apps are a very different philosophical change to extending SharePoint

More scenario-focused Event Tracking Ticket Management System

Robust Built-in robust semantics for install, upgrade & uninstall

Apps are for End Users Cloud & Web-Oriented Apps must ask permission to do things with people’s data (are

isolated by default) Apps are associated with sites (SPWebs)

User Experience

Everything in a SharePoint site is an app Contact form Travel request Shared Documents library Contacts list

Formerly known as View All Content, the Site Contents link shows all apps in a site & links to the SharePoint Store (public) and App Catalog (internal)

Selecting an app redirects to the app’s start page

Benefits

No custom code on the SharePoint server Easier to upgrade to future versions of SharePoint Works in hosted environments w/o limitations Reduces the ramp-up time for those building apps Don’t need to know/be as familiar with SharePoint “-isms” Leverage hosting platform features in new apps Enables taking SharePoint apps to different levels – further than what

can be done with farm / sandbox solutions Isolation – private vs. public clouds

Tech Demo Road-Map

SPApp Project Template and Wizard What new project template(s) are there What does the project wizard look like and do What does the initial solution/project look like/contain

SPApp Deployment and Debugging What happens when I use the “Deploy” command

Remote Event Receiver (What….????) Describe the new remote event receiver artifact, item template and what occurs when one is added

to the project



Geolocation Field

Managed Metadata and Navigation



Development Tools

Mobile

REST & ODataCustom List Queries

Push Notifications

Entire CSOM utilizes new REST calls to perform a much more complete set of actions

Build views of data on the fly and the REST services return the customized JSON / ATOM results

Microsoft Push Notification Service (MPNS) for Windows Phone OS

REST & ODATA

RESTSimpler and Easier to UseMuch easier to use than SOAP-based web serviceHigher productivity when using JavaScript and JqueryResults can be returned in JSON and ATOM format

Each Query is submitted with a unique URLResults can be cached by proxy servers

ODATAThe new data access API for HTTP-Based ClientsBased on open specification growing in popularityStandardizes Data Access APIs for CRUD operationsOData services are emerging on the Internet (NetFlix, Azure, etc.)OData clients becoming more popular as well

Custom List Queries

Configure list views on the server for use in Windows Phone apps

Not possible / practical to create all views in SharePoint, for Mobile apps

Modification of existing views already designed in SharePoint

Creation of “on-the-fly” views suited just for mobile application needs

Push Notifications

SharePoint integrated to Microsoft Push Notification Service

Windows Phone apps can receive notifications through events on SharePoint

Similar to Windows 8 development around Push Notifications

Available for Windows Phone And Windows 8 RT! (Toast and Tile)



Geolocation Field




Development Tools

Geo-location Field

New field type but not available through OOTB GUI

You must write code to deploy a Geo-location Field

Pull list data into Bing (or other) Map Providers

Support for GIS application needs



Geolocation Field




Development Tools

Managed Metadata and Navigation

What’s New with MMD?• Editable via Datasheet View• Term Pinning• Global and Local Term Sets• “Limit To List” • Additional Multilingual support

enabling your sites to span the boundary between intranets and the Internet

You can use the CSWP (Content Search Web Part) to display search data published from across sites and site collections.

Snippet Gallery group on the ribbon HTML snippet gives you a high-fidelity preview of that component HTML snippets are automatically converted into the SharePoint

components The Design Manager generates HTML snippets that can be used by

any web design tool
