SharePoint Taxonomies - Committing large amount of data to the MMD service

·5 mins

Once again about the SharePoint 2010 taxonomy service.

As I wrote in my previous posts, loading data into MMD service automatically can be quite a challenge. First, you must remember about illegal characters in terms labels. Second, you must trace duplicates across sibling nodes in taxonomy trees. And this could not be the end of your problems especially if you plan to load some more data at one time.

SharePoint 2010 Batch Edit

For the years I have developed .Net projects I’ve found many useful solutions on CodePlex repository. Some of them are only drafts of ideas but there are also many products that are ready to use on production environments. SharePoint 2010 Batch Edit which worked with recently is one of this from the second category.

BLOB externalization for SharePoint - Metalogix StoragePoint

·4 mins

I’m working in a team that builds and maintains a big document management system. Since SharePoint itself is not the best option for storing large amount of files (which can be also quite large) and serving them (performance, content DB size limitations etc.) I was evaluating some options for content externalization. I will not get into much details about the reasons for using such solutions because there are many well written articles about this on the Net (like “SharePoint 2010: Storing Documents on the File System with Remote Blob Storage” by Damon Armstrong). I will focus on one - Metalogix StoragePoint.
