This session describes the process to move from SharePoint 2007 to SharePoint 2010.  We will demonstrate the pre-planning process (pre-upgrade checker, content inventory), tools and techniques (in-place or database attach upgrades, and third-party tools), and post-upgrade tasks (master page redesign, customizations) required for a successful migration.  We will also cover the testing, communication planning, training, and governance needed for a successful upgrade.  Comparisons between an upgrade (where the existing information architecture and site organization is solid) and migration (where extensive re-architecture is needed) will be done using real-world Canadian examples.  Target platforms will be both SharePoint 2010 on-premises, as well as Office 365 and SharePoint Online, detailing the technical requirements, benefits, and restrictions of each.  Live upgrades to both platforms will be part of the session.
