SharePoint Server 2010 Enterprise Edition (Includes Software Assurance) (French)

Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 Enterprise Edition is an integrated suite of services that improves organizational effectiveness by providing control over electronic content, accelerating shared processes, and facilitating better-informed decisions and information sharing. Its services can be accessed only by appropriately licensed internal users.

For additional information about the available editions of SharePoint Server and the server and client licensing requirements, see the Guide to SharePoint Server Editions and Licensing.

64-Bit Only: SharePoint Server 2010 Enterprise Edition requires a 64-bit processor with at least four cores and the 64-bit version of Windows Server 2008.

• Collaboration: End users can create content from their preferred web browser or from desktop applications such as Microsoft Word. Automated versioning and workflows, document check-out, and sophisticated access controls help teams work on shared documents with minimal confusion and misunderstanding.
• Enterprise Content Management: Organizations can manage their content through the entire content life cycle — from creation through editing, collaboration, and approval, to long-term retention or final expiration — on a single unified platform. SharePoint can also help implement and automate compliance with information management and data security policies.
• Enterprise Search: The search infrastructure combines federated search, relevance, refinement, and social cues to speed up search and help people find the information and contacts they need.
• Business Forms and Processes: The Enterprise edition provides many features for integrating and streamlining business processes. For example, SharePoint's Workflows feature can streamline common business processes, such as project approval or document review, by managing and tracking the tasks involved with those processes.
• Business Intelligence: Business intelligence is a set of methodologies and technologies that takes information stored in enterprise systems, provides structure and context, and puts it into the hands of the people who need it to make informed decisions. With the Enterprise edition and the appropriate software or database connectors, organizations can make hidden data visible to decision makers and other employees.
