Installation

Installation in SharePoint refers to the process of setting up the SharePoint platform and its components on a server or in the cloud. This process involves several steps to ensure that SharePoint is configured correctly for use in an organization.

  • Pre-requisites: Ensure that the server meets the necessary hardware and software requirements for SharePoint. This may include the installation of Windows Server, SQL Server, and required patches.
  • SharePoint Installation: The actual installation is performed by running the SharePoint setup. This can be done using the SharePoint Server installation media.
  • Configuration Wizard: After installation, the SharePoint Products Configuration Wizard is run to configure the SharePoint farm and its services.
  • Creating the SharePoint Farm: During the configuration, you can create a new SharePoint farm or connect to an existing one.
  • Database Setup: The required SharePoint databases will be created in SQL Server during the configuration.
  • Service Applications: Enable and configure the necessary SharePoint service applications according to organizational needs.
  • Web Applications and Site Collections: After the basic setup, you can create web applications and site collections to begin using SharePoint.
  • On-Premises Installation: Installation on local servers managed by the organization.
  • Cloud Installation: Utilizing SharePoint Online as part of Microsoft 365, eliminating the need for on-premises resources.
  • Hybrid Installation: Combines both on-premises and cloud environments for flexibility in deployment.
  • Always follow Microsoft’s guidelines for installation and configuration.
  • Regularly update SharePoint to the latest version to ensure security and performance.
  • Plan for scalability from the beginning to accommodate future growth.

If issues arise during installation, reference logs generated in the installation directory and check the SharePoint community forums or Microsoft support for assistance.

Proper installation of SharePoint is crucial for effective collaboration and information management within an organization. Following best practices ensures a smooth deployment and optimal performance of the SharePoint environment.
