Alright then, I have finally got the time to write what I have always wanted to. This is going to be a series of blog posts starting with SharePoint basics, terminology and so on. We will begin the discussion with GUI and will move on to the commandline, both stsadm and PowerShell.
I strongly believe that feedback, questions and suggestions are a way of improvement so all your queries and suggestions are more than welcome.
So What is SharePoint basically? Well, after extensive reading and handson I would like to conclude it this way. SharePoint is an Entrprise solution for collaboration and effective content management. It offers centralized control over the complete infrastructure with tremendous ability to delegate control to the extent best suited for the business.
Some call it a website factory as you can create multiple websites with a single click of mouse, others call it a data repository because it can store large amounts of data.
Because this gigantic software integrates with multiple other technologies, I would strongly recommend you to be aware of Active Directory, SQL, Exchange and basics of networking as they help a lot in troubleshooting issues. There are multiple others as well but I have listed major ones to start with.
