Governing the SharePoint Environment

An overarching concern for IT has always been answering the question “Now that we have SharePoint and people are using it, how do we govern it?” Chapter 24, “Governing the SharePoint 2010 Ecosystem,” provides insight and recommendations on the steps needed to ensure that the SharePoint 2010 environment meets the goals and vision set forth by IT and the needs of the end users. Although every organization is unique, and its goals and purposes for deploying SharePoint 2010 will also be unique, the range of tools and process discussed in this chapter can have value for all different types of organizations and businesses.
