RJB Technical Sharepoint 2010 Blog

Based on what we've seen this week I think companies upgrading to SharePoint 2010 are going to get the most value from either the Metadata Management Service which allows you to manage your metadata across site collections, web apps and farms.  It will be much easier for organizations to manage this centralized repository of tagging terms and standardize on the values across their organizations.  This will be a big one for large enterprises.

The Social features are going to change the way organizations communicate internally.  The expertise search is fantastic and I will be blogging on thesee features in detail over the next several weeks.

The Business Connectivty Services (BCS) is another powerful.  Formally the Business Data Catal (BDC), The BCS will allow us to connect to external data repositories including 3rd party employee profile data sources and quickly pull that information into SharePoint 2010 and integrate with other data already existing in SharePoint 2010.
