As you’ve seen lately, I tried bringing you guys the most info from SharePoint Conference 2012 for the ones who couldn’t attend.
I couldn’t attend either, however Patrick Guimonet who is a SharePoint MVP is there and is sharing content on his own Blog but in French. I asked him if I could share the content he has but in English so more people can have access to the information and he thought it’s a good idea.

Here are the slides from the  Effective Search Deployment and Operation in SharePoint 2013  Presentation.  If you want to read the post in French or want to visit  the original post, you can find it here
