Did you know SharePoint Server 2013 supports new site collection provisioning modes. This means you can choose which version of SharePoint Server a site collection should be provisioned in when it is created. It is designed to minimize the impact on users of upgrading to a new version of software,<\/p>\n
You can for example elect that any new site collections created in a SharePoint Server 2013 environment are provisioned only in backward-compatible SharePoint Server 2010 mode to cater for unsupported browsers for example or in SharePoint Server 2013 mode.<\/p>\n
Optionally, you also can allow end users or site collection admins to choose which version is most appropriate for their individual and business needs.<\/p>\n
In addition, page rendering coexistence helps ensure your customizations will continue to work. Site collections and sites provisioned in SharePoint Server 2013 using SharePoint Server 2010 mode both look and function like a SharePoint\u00a0 Server 2010 site.\u00a0 They will even use the 2010 workflow engine.<\/p>\n
One thing to watch out for though, all the limits of 2010 still apply when you chose to provision in to 2010 mode on upgrade. This doesn’t give you a way to run 2010 sites with 2013 software boundaries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
