ENT News | at | by Mike
Microsoft unveiled a minor upgrade this week to its Microsoft Solution for Intranets (MSI) package that offers consulting on setting up enterprise intranets based on Microsoft technologies. The new 1.5 version of MSI also integrates an upcoming technology offering from Groove Networks that provides users with a way to work on MSI-based collaboration projects while offline or outside the firewall.
MSI is a set of consulting services and documentation introduced a year ago to help customers implement intranets using SharePoint Portal Server, SharePoint Team Services, Office XP, SQL Server, Windows 2000 and Windows Media technologies. Microsoft Consulting Services offers MSI in four basic pacakges. Avanade, Hewlett-Packard and Cap Gemini Ernst & Young also offer MSI-based consulting.
