How to get add-ins ready for Office 365
From a readiness perspective,
when moving to a cloud or hybrid environment you need to look at existing customizations
in light of the Add-in model:
• Can customizations be
rewritten? Do they need to be, or can out of the box functionality in Office
365 replace them?
• Does your organization have the
staff and expertise to create Add-ins?
• How are provider hosted apps to
be provisioned and supported? Do you have the infrastructure and web servers
needed?
• Are you prepared to support the
level of remote interaction at the same performance baselines?
Office 365 add-ins can be used to
create standalone applications accessible via Site
Contents or the Application Launcher, embedded page components very similar to
web parts, or administrative resources that deploy branding customizations,
provision sites, assign permissions, and so on. The client object model, which offers
various application programming interfaces via .NET, JavaScript and REST
services, can be used to meet
a variety of
requirements previously served by full-trust code on-premises. For more information
