Six-year MVP Alumni, 28-year MCT, Author, Speaker, Consultant SharePoint Online (SPO) integrates with many services that you need to be familiar with to successfully manage your collaboration content. In this full day workshop, we are going to learn about these different services and how to manage the integration with them by exploring and discussing SharePoint Online best practices for configuring, securing, optimizing, and implementing redundancy. We will begin by discussing and creating a new Microsoft 365 tenant, followed by exploring how to customize both the M365 and SharePoint administrator dashboards so they only display information related to the Microsoft 365 services and SPO-related components like SharePoint Online and OneDrive. We will also explore how to create and assign users to access SharePoint Online as both an end user and as administrators. Being most scenarios require the migration of content, we will discuss several options for migrating content from many different sources to SharePoint Online and OneDrive. Most migrations require at least an interim hybrid configuration, so we will introduce and explore the components that can be configured for a hybrid environment as an interim solution, or as a long-term solution. We will then roll up our sleeves and explore the configuration of several components of SharePoint Online using both the GUI and PowerShell. These SPO components and configurations include; Creating, configuring, and managing site collections Configuring the user profile service (UPS) to ensure your Active Directory data is included in your search index Exploring several search service configuration options, to ensure your users are able to quickly find the information they need, along with how to access some search-related reports, as well as some suggestions on how to help your users submit better search queries for more accurate search results Discussing both SharePoint Online and OneDrive configuration options for managing and securing your collaboration content Create and implementing a structured taxonomy to provide consistent and reliable data in SPO by using published tenant-level content types and managed metadata fields via the term store, as well as other custom column types, that can all be managed by information architects. As we discuss these topics throughout the day, I’ll be sharing best practices, as well as tips and tricks that every SPO admin should know about while working with SPO. When you leave the workshop, you’ll have all the skills and best practices to migrate to, configure, manage, and secure SharePoint Online and OneDrive components using the SharePoint Online Admin center, OneDrive admin Center, and PowerShell.

Executive Vice President Strategic Partner Manager SharePoint is at the heart of many organizations’ content strategy. However, it is often a challenge for users to discover the right content needed to accomplish a task, resulting in loss of time or wrong decisions. This problem is amplified even more when the content is supposed to serve as the knowledge base for AI tools such as OpenAI-based assistants or copilots, or when users start becoming citizen developers and build automations using Power Platform. By using automated, AI-driven tagging based on a knowledge graph that describes facts about your organization, discoverability can be hugely improved and automated recommendation of the right content at the right time becomes possible. Semantic tagging contrasts with other approaches such as machine learning or the application of language models, in that it provides a fully explainable approach, which in turn can earn better trust from human users. At the same time, both the semantically tagged documents and knowledge graph are essential building blocks MS Solutions Architect | Microsoft MVP In this session you will learn how to maximize your SharePoint capabilities with SharePoint Advanced Management.
