One of the multifaceted and versatile products from Microsoft facilitating collaboration and document sharing is SharePoint. Sometimes referred to as Microsoft SharePoint Products and Technologies, SharePoint is not a single product but a collection of software elements and products. Due to its versatility and multiple functionalities it afford, many corporate houses have taken up SharePoint development to streamline the communication and information sharing process in-house.
Microsoft SharePoint is composed of a number of products forming different components and offering different functionalities. However, the base platform of SharePoint remains WSS (Windows SharePoint Services). Apart from WSS, other technologies and products of SharePoint include Microsoft Office Project Server 2007, Microsoft Office Groove Server 2007, Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 MOSS Enterprise, Forms Server 2007, Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 MOSS Standard, Search Server 2008, and Search Server 2008 Express.
The base product, WSS, can be deployed only on Microsoft operating systems. Compatible only with Microsoft servers, WSS represents an object model for the development of web-based collaboration and creation of web pages. It also provides for content publishing and document management. Business enterprises can also benefit from the browser-based management and administration functionalities of WSS. It also enables collaborative editing of shared documents. Other features include wikis and blogs. If you install WSS on a web server, web parts can be embedded for providing extra functionalities. These web parts may include navigation tools, alerts, dashboards and workspaces, lists, contact lists, shared calendar, and discussion boards.
