SharePoint Developer Handbok Ebook

Thanks to Microsoft, just about every book on SharePoint 2007 starts out with a note defining the term. That’s because SharePoint can refer to two distinct but closely related products. The first, Windows SharePoint Services (or WSS) is a part of the Windows 2003 operating system (although it must be downloaded and installed separately). WSS, which is free of charge, provides all the core services that you expect, such as security, list management, and web-part support. It’s possible to build very sophisticated solutions just using WSS. The second product is Microsoft Office SharePoint Server (MOSS), which builds on top of WSS, is not free, and provides such features as the Business Data Catalog (BDC), Records Management, Enterprise Search, and much more. MOSS takes WSS to new levels in terms of supporting enterprise use of the Office components. Most of the recipes in this book will work equally well in either environment. I will note where a recipe is applicable to only one of the two, or where some changes need to be made depending on the environment.

What is .NET?

To keep it short .NET is a new and innovative architecture that has a wide variety of uses. It makes mobile devices, connectivity and information a lot more accessible and easy to handle.

It's a programming infrastructure for the net and a whole new user experience.

.NET is aimed at making your data simultaneously available on your PC and on all your wireless devices like PDAs and cell phones. It promises to bring together the functionality of various software applications like Word and Excel through the magic of XML. It introduced new concepts and new terminologies.

Web Services, another part of the .NET architecture, allows software to be put on the web and immediately become accessible to other software that need similar services. Word and Excel for example, would become Web services, and everyone connected to Web Service can use them. It comes with the promise of allowing functionality of different applications from within each other (like using a spreadsheet within Word) without opening up a new application.
