In this chapter, we explored the various features for document management, including some of the new features provided by SharePoint 2010—Document ID, Content Organizer, Document-Sets, and so on. I demonstrated how some of these new features allow your users to organize their document content better—often the lifeblood of any organization that processes information.

We covered some of the interesting areas of records management—a behemoth of a topic, which included Information Management Policy, the Records Center, Holds and e-Discovery, and Auditing Records Management is all about maintain the lifecycle of documents and data in SharePoint in adherence with organization or business policies.

At the end of this chapter, you learned about content deployment and its use as part of the Web Content Management features of SharePoint. We discovered how content deployment provides administrators with the ability to deploy content from one farm to another, such as staging to production.

In Chapter 8, I will tackle another large topic in SharePoint 2010—business intelligence, which is about providing intelligent business decision making for your users by providing dashboard and reports of their data. Stay tuned.
