Colorado SharePoint Users Group - Northern Colorado

I will be presenting at the next users group meeing up in Northern Colorado on January 6, 2010. We will be taking a look at caching options in SharePoint 2010. Here is a description of the session:

SharePoint 2010 is bigger, faster, better; but along with all of the new capabilities of SharePoint comes a greater responsibility. In this session, Shannon will present how caching can improve your SharePoint 2010 implementation. In this session we will cover: output caching, caching profiles, VaryByCustom options, object caching and disk-based caching for BLOBs. Understanding your options will enable you to fine tune your environment so that it can be the fastest it can be.

This session will be recorded and available the first week of January 2010. You can either catch it live or watch in on-demand. For more information, see http://www.cospug.com/Sessions.

Colorado SharePoint User's Group (COSPUG)

The Colorado SharePoint community has a new site and a new focus. As you will be able to notice, we built our SharePoint community site on SharePoint Foundation. While we knew there may be some challenges and only a fraction of the cool new features that make the SharePoint 2010 suite so amazing, we thought we would really put SPF to a true public test. Everything has come together much greater that we would have hoped. This doesn’t mean that the process was without minor glitches here and there, but the overall experience was awesome. Currently, we have an anonymous site that lists many of our meetings here in Colorado. We have also posted some of the slide decks and pictures from our recent SharePoint Saturday held on December 12, 2009.

On December 17, we hosted our first Colorado SharePoint Users Group (COSPUG) and hosted the event online via live meeting. We were able to record that meeting and have brought it to you through our COSPUG Sessions link. We are currently planning many meetings across the state and have plans to get those presentations available to the people in our area that couldn’t visit us live.

Currently we have meetings planned for Colorado Springs, Denver, and the Loveland area. We are hoping to build up SharePoint socials and meetings in every area of Colorado and bring those events to our Colorado Community either through LiveMeeting or our new SharePoint Community Site through recorded sessions.

Our new project would not be possible without the help of some really great sponsors. If you have the opportunity to check out our new site at www.cospug.com, please visit our sponsor page to see who is truly impacting the Colorado SharePoint community.
