SharePoint Conference Deep Dive – Social Architecture Slides! #spc12

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

SPC12 slide asking what was the gap, with a user connected through a cloud to two Personal Site boxes

SPC12 slide on why Discovery matters: saving to SkyDrive Pro, the Newsfeed on a device and the Office hub on a phone

SPC12 slide stating My Site Discovery gives a seamless client side experience, so users never type a Document Library URL

SPC12 setup workflow slide: SP Admin creates the My Site Host, Exchange Admin sets the URL with SPMySiteHostURL and SetMySiteHostURLInAD

SPC12 slide on SharePoint 2010 with few new users: provisioning requests go to the WFE and SQL while existing users send page requests

SPC12 slide on why SharePoint 2013 went async: Newsfeed, About Me, SkyDrive Pro links and Office 2013 clients trigger Personal Site creation

SPC12 Performance? diagram of new user Personal Site provisioning requests flooding the WFE alongside existing users' page requests

SPC12 Provisioning Queue slide: browser users opening the Newsfeed or Profile page, and Office client users saving to SkyDrive Pro

SPC12 slide on Personal Site requests at the WFE splitting into a non-interactive Office client queue and an interactive browser queue

SPC12 slide on what to look for in the logs: adding request to queue comes from w3wp.exe, processing request in queue from owstimer.exe

SPC12 slide on permission changes, with the 2010 Activity Feed separate from the Personal Site while in 2013 Social equals Personal Site

SPC12 slide of User Profile Service Application permissions in Central Administration with Create Personal Site highlighted

SPC12 slide on provisioning performance: the 2013 template is tuned for Social and SkyDrive Pro, the 2010 template activated all features

SPC12 slide showing the Getting the most out of SharePoint e-mail sent when a user's Newsfeed and Personal Site are ready

SPC12 slide on the UserProfile.CreatePersonalSiteEnqueue(Bool) API, true for the interactive queue and false for the non-interactive queue

SPC12 slide for IT admins: an e-mail invite to 5K users with 4% clicking the Newsfeed link means 100 requests in each interactive queue

SPC12 slide on why a phased roll out: with 3 WFEs and 30 seconds per request the max wait is about 20 minutes, so phase to avoid long queues

SPC12 slide on other considerations: choose a set of users and call UserProfile.CreatePersonalSiteEnqueue(False)

SPC12 Social Architecture summary slide covering Social equals Personal Site, seamless discovery and Personal Site provisioning
