Whether you’re "all in" or "cloud cautious," there’s no escaping the fact that hybrid solutions have become the new normal. Beyond cloud versus on-premises conversations, customers are now inclined to have more than one SharePoint implementation in their organization - SharePoint 2013 on-premises, Office 365, SharePoint 2010 or all of the above. This presentation looks at:
- What a hybrid environment looks like
- The challenges of delivering hybrid business apps
- The different types of hybrid business apps
- How K2 delivers on-premises, cloud and hybrid business apps

6. PEERING THOUGH THE CLOUDS
§ “Cloud” for today’s presentation is the enterprise or commercial cloud e.g. Office
365, Dynamics CRM Online, salesforce.com, Yammer etc
§ The consumer cloud e.g. Facebook, Instagram, Netflix, Evernote, etc isn’t the
focus of today’s presentation though there is arguable some crossover
§ We will largely talk about the public cloud today but everything we discuss is
equally applicable to the private cloud

11. SOLVING BUSINESS PROBLEMS
Thinking of SharePoint as a platform to solve business problems rather than a
set of features and functions is when you begin to realize value from your
SharePoint investment

12. WORKFLOW & FORMS
Workflow
§ Workflow is a great way to simplify a user’s interaction with SharePoint
§ Automating repetitive tasks, providing consistency of execution, involving people
Forms
§ Forms are a natural extension of workflow
§ Provide a consistent experience for users
§ Give them the information they need, from any system, and guide them to an
action
§ Workflow + Forms = a business application
