Architects
A critical new role in organizations is that of the workplace architect. These architects are responsible for laying out the logical architectures and standards at the application layer of the new virtual work environment. The role goes beyond infrastructure and platform and addresses how the various elements of a workplace will function as part of an integrated system. Breeze is a great "playground" for workplace architects.
Some of the core architectural features that you can learn from the Breeze Virtual Workplace include:
- Comprehensive scope of an integrated, virtual work environment on SharePoint.
- Design elements of an integrated intranet, extranet and portal that cuts across multiple departments and has the depth of applications, business processes, and external data sources.
- SharePoint design boundaries overcome by CorasWorks - data typing, data sources, sites, site collections, web applications, DMZ’s, and server farms.
- Security trimming for global workplace navigation that transcends sites, site collections, and web applications and virtualizes the physical structure of SharePoint.
- Power of No Navigation in a web based environment – See, Contribute, and Act on Information from Anywhere.
- Approach to a data center in a work environment – where you can normalize and centralize data (SharePoint data and external data sources).
- Design for workstreams powered by end-user actions to drive information across the work environment and how this human workflow integrates with back-end system workflow.
- Central configuration and management of end-user reusable actions across a work environment.
- Scope design and management of portfolios of sites.
- Impact of portable components – the ability to snap any UI element off and reuse it throughout an environment.
