Gaining control of your file shares with SharePoint

Overview

For decades, the faithful file share has successfully provided a space for sharing documents and other data in organizations around the world. Conceived in the days of Novell Netware and Windows NT, file shares provided a quick and easy method of storing, securing, and accessing data, and have done that task quite well over the years.
This white paper will discuss how organisations can gain control over their file shares and integrate them together with SharePoint. We will discuss migration strategies for bringing content to SharePoint, data externalisation options such as Remote BLOB Storage (RBS), as well as security and information governance best practices.
