SharePoint
A document management and collaboration platform that helps a company manage archives, documents, reports and other content that is vital to its business processes
SharePoint is configured using a web browser. It provides most of its capabilities via a web user interface (UI) and web applications. SharePoint is used to manipulate content and site structure, create and delete sites, enable and disable product features, configure basic workflows and manage analytics.
Supports render by Workiy includes but not limited to,
- Web-based configuration - Manipulate content structure, site structure, create/delete sites, modify navigation and security, or add/remove apps. Enable or disable product features, upload custom designs/themes, or turn on integrations with other Office products. Configure basic workflows, view usage analytics, manage metadata, configure search options, upload customizations, and set up integration.
- SharePoint Designer – This is a semi-deprecated product that provided 'advanced editing' capabilities for HTML/ASPX pages, but remains the primary method of editing SharePoint workflows. The features are configured either using PowerShell, or a Web UI called "Central Administration". Configuration of server farm settings (e.g. search crawl, web application services) can be handled through these central tools.
- Custom Development – This includes Application-to-application integration with SharePoint, Extensions to SharePoint functionality (e.g. custom workflow actions), 'Web Parts' (also known as "portlets", "widgets", or "gadgets") that provide new functionality when added to a page and Pages/sites templates modification.

- Yammer - The Yammer social networking platform has customizable social feeds that let employees interact in the SharePoint environment.
SharePoint Central Administration (the CA) is a web application that typically exists on a single server in the farm; however, it is also able to be deployed for redundancy to multiple servers. This application provides a complete centralized management interface for web & service applications in the SharePoint farm, including AD account management for web & service applications. In the event of the failure of the CA, Windows PowerShell is typically used on the CA server to reconfigure the farm.
The structure of the SharePoint platform enables multiple WAs to exist on a single farm. In a shared (cloud) hosting environment, owners of these WAs may require their own management console. The SharePoint 'Tenant Administration' (TA) is an optional web application used by web application owners to manage how their web application interacts with the shared resources in the farm.
