SharePoint 2010 Versions

22/07/2011

There are three versions of SharePoint 2010 - SharePoint Foundation, SharePoint Server 2010 and SharePoint Enterprise 2010.

SharePoint Foundation is a free add-on from Windows Server 2008 and Windows Server 2008 R2. Foundation includes document management, discussion forums, wikis, and support for applications including workflows. Although Foundation does not include search there is a free Search Server Express which you can add.

SharePoint Server 2010 goes beyond Foundation with features such as search, compliance abilities including document retention policies, server-side Microsoft Word automation, social media features including status updates, ratings and tagging, individual profiles and content sites, video and audio media support, templates for workflows, improved scalability, and more.

SharePoint Enterprise 2010 adds server-side support for Access databases and Excel automation services, business intelligence integration, support for forms applications using InfoPath (part of Microsoft Office), more scalable search and more.

In addition Office Web Apps, which enables browser-based viewing and editing of Microsoft Office documents, is a SharePoint application, but not part of the above versions. Office Web Apps works with all of the SharePoint 2010 versions and is available with a volume license for the Office client applications.

SharePoint involves licensing for three products, each with separate CALs (Client Access Licenses) these are:

  • Windows Server (always required)
  • SQL Server (required unless you use the free SQL Server Express).
  • SharePoint (required for editions other than Foundation)

Since SQL Server Express is limited to single-server installs and 10GB per database, some organisations which can get by with Foundation will still need SQL Server and its CALs.
