SharePoint in the Cloud: Evaluating Impact, Pros and Cons

Topics
Cloud Computing
Collaboration
Enterprise Applications
Microsoft
Office 365
SharePoint

Highlights

Microsoft has unleashed their cloud strategy and Office 365 is now publically available (as of July). What does this mean for organizations using SharePoint today? How can organizations leverage the Microsoft cloud effectively with their SharePoint implementations and future SharePoint Strategies?
 
In the marketplace, information on SharePoint ‘and the cloud’ abounds. Much of this information is fluffy, cloud-like marketing material, or does not clearly explain how businesses can practically leverage “Cloud” technology with SharePoint. In this panel thought leaders and experts discussed the practical application of Microsoft's cloud technology and SharePoint, when it has brought measurable benefit to organizations, and when to avoid it.

Organizations need to consider the implications of cloud computing as it relates to compliance and risk, identity/access management, service integrity, information protection, and client integrity. These are all things that will need to be explored while evaluating, implementing, managing, and implementing cloud solutions.
