Microsoft SharePoint and BI Resources, an Architects Perspective

During the course of several years administrating SharePoint and its Business Intelligence tools and spending countless hours reading books, blogs, whitepapers, collaborating with others, and just pure trial and error this set of resources will spare you from the hardships commonly encountered. I share my most valuable document; My SharePoint Infrastructure installation guide.

I share my most valuable document; My SharePoint Infrastructure installation guide.
What's different about my guide from all the others; I show the full syntax and real world examples when using PowerShell and other steps such as using the mmc and don't assume you know it all, because my first time implementing these services I certainly didn't!
I realize there are many components I have likely left out, however I will continue to add and modify documentation to make it as reliable an accurate as I can to help make your deployment successful! These steps include the install for Microsoft SharePoint 2013 Enterprise, PowerPivot, Power View, Office Web Apps, and many others.
I cover how to best implement backup schedules from my trial and error, how to implement AD Group Policy to the servers, setup SQL Server 2012, client alias's, SQL maintenance, the SharePoint install itself, Office Web Apps, PowerPivot, Reporting Services and Power View, Microsoft Data Protection Manager for backup, and much more! -

This research paper is a summary analysis of the many studies, field analysis, and reports of historical documents related to underwater sites known as the “Winch Hole” and “Mast Wreck” sites tentatively identified as the Slobodna. Numerous years of studies and field research in the Florida Keys have yielded a large number of data and documents that have aided in the completion and compilation of this report. These field studies have added to the insight and interpretation of Florida’s cultural past, as well as educating divers and the public to the importance of non-renewable underwater resources. The Florida
Keys have many underwater representations of the past, one such wreck being the 1887 Slobodna shipwreck. -
