SharePoint Server 2007 (Part 1 of 6): Planning and Deploying SharePoint Server 2007

In this first session of our six-part Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 series, see a detailed overview of the SharePoint Server 2007 architecture. We present the concepts of topology, server roles, and network conditions, and also provide an overview of administration features with SharePoint Server 2007. Hear an explanation and usage example for each component of the three-tier administration model: central administration, shared services, and site settings. We also explain various security topics including permissions. Finally, we look at deployment options and use four detailed scenarios to provide considerations for determining the correct topology. The simplest of these is a single-server deployment, and then the options progress to farm options, from small to large.
