Features of SharePoint 2013,Difference between share-point 2010 and 2013
Authentication: Microsoft says that SharePoint 2013
Preview has been improved to make claims-based authentication easier to use.
It extends support for application authentication via Open Authorization 2.0
(Auth) as well as for server-to-server authentication.
Users can grant apps in the SharePoint store and catalog access to
certain resources and data. Server-to-server security tokens that contain user
identity claims enable cross-server authenticated access between, say,
SharePoint 2013 Preview and Exchange 2013 Preview.
Business Connectivity Services: Microsoft added a bunch of new
features to BCS in SharePoint.
You might like these: Support for OData Business Data
Connectivity (BDC) connections, in addition to connections for WCF, SQL Server,
and .NET assemblies. Automatic generation via Visual Studio 2010 of BDC models
for OData data sources. An event listener with an event subscriber on the
SharePoint 2013 Preview side, to enable SharePoint users to receive
notifications of changes to the external system. Self-contained apps for
SharePoint.
But wait--there's more: Enhancements to external lists
that bring them to functional parity with other SharePoint lists. The exposure
of the REST APIs for web and mobile app developers to use. Six new Windows
PowerShell cmdlets specifically for OData. And the ability, via Business
Connectivity Services Client Runtime, to have side-by-side installations of
Office 2010 and Office 2013 Preview on the same client computer
eDiscovery:Showing SharePoint's increasing
presence in the world of litigation, eDiscovery improvements have been added
that, unfortunately, are probably sorely needed. They include a new site
template, the eDiscovery Center, which creates a portal for managing cases—you
can access cases to search, hold content, and export content.
Microsoft has added improvements to in-place holds,
including site-level preservation; the ability for users to work with content
that's preserved; and the ability to define the scope of preservation via a
query filter.
You can also now take the results of your eDiscovery
search—including documents, wiki pages, Exchange email messages and tasks-- and
export them into a review tool.
Mobile devices: Optimized viewing for mobile device
users was a no-brainer addition to SharePoint Server 2013 Preview—it had to be
done.
Other new features include the following: The ability
to render a single SharePoint published site in multiple formats for different
devices. The ability to enable a push notification service on a SharePoint site
to send device updates to a Windows Phone device.
We're not done yet: A new geolocation field type for
use in mobile app
development. The ability for some devices to display
PerformancePoint Web Parts, Excel Services reports, and SQL Server Reporting
Services reports. And finally, enhanced viewing of Office Web apps (Word,
Excel, and PowerPoint) via mobile browsers.
Records management and
compliance:
Reflecting perhaps not a dearth of added features, but
the distance SharePoint 2010's records management features had improved from
SharePoint 2007's, you'll find that SharePoint 2013 Preview has enhanced
compliance simply by extending retention policies to SharePoint sites.
This also applies to any Exchange Server 2013 Preview
team mailboxes associated with those sites.
Business intelligence: SharePoint 2013 Preview adds tons
of new features, including the following: New features in Excel for business
intelligence (BI): In-Memory BI Engine (IMBI) for near-instant analysis of
millions of rows of data; Power View Add-in for Excel, which offers visualizations,
animations, and smart querying to enable users to visualize modeled data;
decoupled PivotChart and PivotTable reports allowing for the creation of
PivotChart reports without having to add a PivotTable report on the same page;
and the ability to do trend analysis from cells in PivotTable reports that use
OLAP data.
It also adds Excel service enhancements such as an
updated Business Intelligence Center site template, and improved timeline
controls.
Visio Services improvements include the ability for
users to add comments to a Visio drawing on the web via Visio Services.
And Performance Point improvements include the ability
for users to copy dashboards and dependencies to other users or site
collections; an enhanced UI; support for Analysis Services Effective User
feature, which eliminates the need for Kerberos delegation for per-user
authentication; and support for Performance Point on the Apple iPad.
Social computing: It’s no surprise that Microsoft
wanted to beef up the social computing features in SharePoint, and with
SharePoint 2013 Preview, it's on track for doing so. Basically, it's enhanced
the administration and user experience, and added ways for enterprise users to
collaborate more fully and naturally using social media features.
One way is by enhancing the ability create
discussions—via two new templates called Community Site and Community Portal.
Microsoft also redesigned the UI for My Sites, and added Micro blog and
Newsfeeds features, and improved features users need around saving,
synchronization, sharing, and moving content.
Because of the new MySites features, you'll also find
Microsoft made several changes to the User Profile service application settings
in Central Administration around configuring permissions, privacy,
micro-blogging and newsfeeds, and more.
Web content management: Microsoft improved the video upload
process for content authors, and improved image display and performance of a
site with its image renditions feature, which reduces the size of an image file
that is downloaded to the client.
It added an integrated translation service that gives
content authors or managers the ability to choose which content will be
exported for human translation and which for translation by machine. And
cross-site publishing does just as it says, giving you the ability to display
content in one or more publishing site collections. You can also designate any
library or list as a catalog, enabling content to be reused on publishing site
collections.
It added managed navigation, which lets you use term
sets to define and maintain navigation on a site. And it added the ability to
create more user-friendly URLs.
In the area of branding, Microsoft made it less
mysterious, and now designers use such tools as Adobe Dreamweaver, Microsoft
Expression Web, or another HTML editor, rather than having to use SharePoint
Designer or Visual Studio 2013 to brand a SharePoint site.
And it added the ability for designers to design sites
for display on different devices, such as tablets, smart phones, and desktops.
Additional features enhance search, authoring, and publishing.
Workflow: Microsoft made architectural
changes in SharePoint Workflow. If you want to have the nearly identical
experience of building workflows in SharePoint 2013 Preview as you do in
SharePoint 2010, you simply install SharePoint Server 2013 Preview.
But if you want the SharePoint 2013 workflow platform,
you need to install and configure Windows Azure Workflow to communicate with
your Preview farm. SharePoint Designer 2013 Preview includes new functionality
designed specifically for Windows Azure Workflow, and called the SharePoint
2013 Workflow platform.
These new features include a visual workflow that uses
a Visio 2013 Preview add-in, the ability to enable no-code web service calls
from inside a workflow, new actions for the task process, the ability to start
a workflow built on SharePoint 2010 from a workflow built on SharePoint 2013,
and new workflow building blocks called Stage, Loop, and App Step.
