Customer

The Customer, a US healthcare organization, offers assistance for managing absences and disabilities.

Challenge

The Customer requested data migration from its intranet site built on SharePoint Server 2010 to Office 365 and approached Kaprikorni with the request. All of the content, including all document versions and metadata, had to be transferred to the cloud. In a new Office 365 solution, the Customer also wished to move the security groups and keep the same permissions architecture.

Solution

After thoroughly studying the Customer’s needs, the Kaprikorni team implemented a cloud solution on Office 365 SharePoint Online without adaptations or external integrations. In addition, the Kaprikorni team allowed users to edit and upload new content to the cloud intranet portal on SharePoint Online so as not to interfere with their operations throughout the migration process.

The project was divided into three phases:

  • verifying the Customer’s on-premises system and setting up SharePoint Online for data migration.
  • configuring standard security settings and moving intranet portal content.
  • evaluating the website and checking the accuracy of the data.

The transfer of the intranet portal to SharePoint Online was finished in 4 days. Our group created a specific console application to make the procedure more practical. The Kaprikorni team performed a number of pilot migrations using the console application to check the accuracy of the data that was transferred. The team was able to guarantee the accurate migration of all the material, document versions, metadata, security groups, and permissions to Office 365 as a consequence.

Results

On the Customer’s Office 365 account, a cloud-based intranet portal using SharePoint Online was made available. The intranet portal content migration was completed in accordance with all customer demands, and the project’s implementation impacted neither company operations nor user behavior. The chosen security groups and permissions model, as well as the integrity of the portal data, were all preserved by the Customer. The Customer was able to make use of all the advantages of the cloud environment, including flexibility, low cost, and high security, thanks to the migration of the gateway to Office 365 SharePoint Online.
