Sharepoint Migration

Michael Fitzmaurice presented on the Migration issues surrounding sharepoint. There are multiple methods to migrate- but the best involve a custom app to port customer changes back into test- and then from test back into production.

Sharepoint content can be broken into 3 groups of items- each needing different methods to migrate:

Group 1
List data
Documents

Group 2
List structure
List views
Page structure

Group 3
Site Settings

  • Metalogix Software develops a content migration solution for migrating content from existing SharePoint sites as well as the web, file system and other systems to SharePoint Lists and Doc Libraries that addresses the first use case nicely.

  • The Metalogix product looks pretty good on their site. It's a shame it costs more than my car. I would love to see a lite version. sigh...
