2007-07-06 10:33:00 After Wednesday's live echo for SharePoint 2007 demonstration, I spoke with Stephen Cummins to ask him more about it. In addition to being echoTechnology's Technical Evangelist, he's a SharePoint MVP and blogs at SPSFAQ and echoTechnology Support Blog.Question: What are the most important design considerations you follow when planning, implementing, and managing a SharePoint portal?Stephen:Not really understanding the SharePoint architecture leads to examples like trying to recreate file shares in document libraries, creating deep navigational structures, or one giant document library with hundreds of folders.It's best to be prepared - it makes more sense to have multiple smaller document libraries, so you can have an easier time assigning access to these libraries, applying different workflows and metadata. A poorly planned architecture can make it hard to grant access, and maintaining it is a manual and time consuming process. Another important consideration is capacity planni...
