- Retention policies and compliance archiving: Implementing document retention policies, records center archiving, and legal hold (eDiscovery) configuration.
- Full-text search and search optimization: Optimizing search experience with search architecture, query rules, result sources, and filters.
3. Workflow Automation and Business Integration
- Complex approval workflows and parallel branches: Using Power Automate to create multi-branch approvals, conditional triggers, and parallel tasks, deeply integrated with Outlook and Teams notifications.
- RPA and AI integration: Using Power Automate Desktop or third-party RPA tools for OCR document recognition, form data extraction; integrating with Azure Cognitive Services for intelligent classification and sentiment analysis.
- Enterprise system integration: Connecting ERP, CRM, HR, MES, and other backend systems via Azure Service Bus, Logic Apps, and custom connectors.
4. Custom Development and Extensions
-
SharePoint Framework (SPFx)
- Custom Web Parts: Responsive design, configurable property panels, state management (Redux/MobX).
- Extensions (App Customizer, Field Customizer, Command Sets): Page script injection, enhancing list/library interfaces, custom command buttons.
- Remote event receivers and event receivers: Server-side extensions, supporting synchronous/asynchronous event processing, transaction rollbacks.
- Provider-hosted apps: Hosting business logic in Azure or on-premises IIS for higher isolation and security.
5. Deployment, Migration, and Upgrades
- Blue-green deployment/rolling deployment: Using Azure DevOps Pipelines, PowerShell DSC for zero-downtime switching.
- Data and permissions migration: Using ShareGate Pro, Metalogix Content Matrix for bulk migration and permission mapping.
- Version compatibility testing: Validating feature differences and regression testing between SharePoint Server 2013/2016/2019 and SharePoint Online.
6. Performance Optimization and Security Compliance
- Performance benchmarking and capacity planning: Using SCOM, Azure Monitor to collect metrics (CPU, memory, request latency), formulating scaling strategies.
- Caching and CDN acceleration: Configuring BLOB caching, output caching, front-end CDN (Azure CDN/Cloudflare) to optimize page load times.
- Security auditing and threat protection: Enabling unified audit logs, advanced security policies, two-factor authentication, data loss prevention (DLP) policies.
