Which three components should you implement?

Case Study: Contoso LTD

Background

Contoso, Ltd. is a manufacturing company that serves the oil and gas industry. The company produces materials and chemicals that are used in the production of gasoline. Contoso has recentlyacquired several smaller companies including A.Datum, Litware, Inc., and Northwind Traders. Contoso has now grown from a local company to a company that has offices in multiple geographies.

The company has the following offices:

Corporate structure

Contoso is divided into business units based on their function primarily, and then by geographic region. The corporate language is English. Contoso has a major datacenter that is located near their Dallas facilities. A. Datum Corporation has a contract with a third-party datacenter in London, England.

Contoso intends to move their environment fully to the cloud in the future, and will use SQL Databases in the cloud for business continuity.

Contoso has, up until recently, handled all collaboration between employees using a single file share, email, USB flash drives, and local storage. With a growing need for global cooperation and collaboration, Contoso has elected to implement a SharePoint environment. You must minimize the cost for the solution.

SharePoint environment

• Each business functional group requires a unique site collection. You must create child site collections for each geographical region that is part of the business functional group.

• The SharePoint taxonomy must follow the corporate structure.

• All existing corporate content must be migrated to the new SharePoint 2016 environment.

• The SharePoint environment must be accessible to all employees 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and 365 days a year.

Data

• You must retain all records for compliance reasons.

Employee requirements

• Employees must only use SharePoint Designer to edit SharePoint pages.

• Employees must have access to PowerPivot.

Editing of SharePoint pages

Contoso has decided that they will allow employees to edit SharePoint 2016 pages only by using SharePoint Designer. Employees must edit pages in a development environment that is located in Dallas. Changes must be applied to the production environment by using a backup/restore operation on the individual site collection. The development environment is an exact replica of the production environment.

Technical requirements

SharePoint requirements

You identify the following requirements for the SharePoint environment:

Backup and disaster recovery

• The environment must be backed up at all times. You must not permit the loss of more than one hour of data.

• In the case of failure, you must be able to restore the environment to any point within three weeks before the failure.

SharePoint farm

• You must ensure that specific offices can share content with external partners.

• You must log activities related to Power Pivot in the SharePoint usage logs.

• You must implement Search services from the on-premises farm.

Deployment guidelines

You have the following guidelines and protocols for implementing the SharePoint environment:

• You must install and configure all servers in an identical way.

• You must provision all site collections by using the SP Site. Copy method at the content database level. You must use reproducible and traceable methods to provisions sites.

• You must track information about SharePoint installations in Active Directory Domain Services.

You must monitor connectivity between the two environments.

Contoso is concerned that unauthorized users may gain access to sensitive information. You must log any attempts to access sensitive information.
