How it works
Office SharePoint Online leverages redundant and geographically dispersed data centers. Each data center houses a reliable redundant infrastructure needed to support the service. SharePoint Online helps simplify IT management by removing customers’ need to deploy, configure, monitor and update/upgrade a collaboration solution on premises. From the Microsoft Online Services Administration Center, IT administrators can create new site collections, sites and enable access to specific users. With SharePoint Online, your enterprise can be up and running quickly.
SharePoint Online offers you a comprehensive set of functionality spread across the Portal, Collaboration, Search, Content Management and Business Process Forms workloads.
