Microsoft Office 365 leveraging SharePoint 2013 and integrated capability sets provide for globally distributed workforces with the simple ease of administrative oversight and application development without all the mess of setting up servers, maintaining patches and being concerned with disaster recovery plans. While Office 365 is a great platform to utilize, moving an entire IT infrastructure may not always be the best approach for some organizations. In this session we'll discuss the various aspects of why an organization may wish to stay in a hybrid solution with both on-premises and cloud hosted solutions that are integrated with one another. Further, migration tips and tricks, planning techniques and processes will be discussed.
