·         Installation and Configuring SharePoint 2013 with latest patches.
·         Installation and Configuring SharePoint 2013 custom third parties.
·         Migrate SharePoint 2010 Services Applications to SharePoint 2010 Services applications

New Migration strategy of SharePoint 2010 to SharePoint has been changed. Now, there is no in-place upgrade and only database attach is supported in this version unlike previous versions. Following steps will be performed in this blog post:
  1. Creating SharePoint 2013 Farm. (Farm Admin)

  1. Copying databases from SharePoint content and services application databases to new SQL Server 2012 database. (Farm Admin)
  2. Upgrading service applications. (Farm Admin)
  3. Upgrading content databases. (Farm Admin)
