SharePoint 2013 poses a challenging question for IT directors and SharePoint architects. Traditionally, the core questions regarding a SharePoint migration could be summarized as "when and how." With Office 365 as a new and viable option for hosting SharePoint in the cloud, "where" becomes a significant question. While there are very attractive motivating factors for going to the cloud, there are also serious risks and considerations that you'll have to assess.

You will learn:

  • Accessing cloud vs. on-premise functionality
  • Risk/Reward going cloud
  • Cost consideration
