Case Study: 5
Contoso Ltd
Background
A company named Contoso, Ltd. has offices in Seattle and Toronto. Each office has a data
center and a region-specific site in a single Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS)
domain named contoso.com. The database servers run Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2.
Database servers are installed in each data center and are members of the region-specific
sites. The WAN connection between the data centers is a dedicated T3 connection.
Existing Corporate Farm
Contoso has a SharePoint farm named HQ-SP10. The SharePoint servers in the farm run
SharePoint Server 2010 on Windows Server 2008 R2.

HQ-SP10 hosts many web applications that require unique service accounts. A SharePoint
2010 web application named WebApp1 is located at https://webapp1.contoso.com. WebApp1
references a custom knowledge base module in HQ-SP10 and the content is stored in the
SharePoint database HQDB. Employees authenticate to WebApp1 by using classic mode
authentication.
Users in both offices make frequent updates to SharePoint content. Administrators make only
minimal changes to the SharePoint farm settings and web applications.
Existing Product Support Farm
The product support department hosts a SharePoint farm named DEPT-SP13. The SharePoint
servers in the farm run SharePoint Server 2013 and are members of a domain named
PrdSupport.contoso.com.
DEPT-SP13 hosts two service applications:
• A built-in service application provides access to a
business data model connected to the company’s data
warehouse.
• A custom service application named SvcApp1 provides
access to data in a legacy system.
Users in the product support department access the service applications by using a local web
application named WebApp2. WebApp2 is located at webapp2.contoso.com and is stored in
the SharePoint database DEPTDB. Users in other departments access the service applications
by using WebApp1.
Technical Challenges
You are upgrading HQ-SP10 and the web applications hosted in the farm to a new SharePoint
Server 2013 farm named HQ-SP13.
When upgrading the content database to SharePoint Server 2013, you receive the following
error message:

Business Requirements
The SharePoint 2010 environment must meet the following business requirements:
• HQ-SP10 must provide read-only access to users during
the migration.
• All customizations in HQ-SP10 must be migrated to
HQ-SP13.
The SharePoint 2013 environment must meet the following business requirements:
• HQ-SP13 and the web applications must remain
available if one of the SharePoint servers or database servers is
offline.
• Users’ documents stored in HQ-SP13 must be available
if all the servers in a region are offline.
• Shared resources in SvcApp1 must be available to other
SharePoint farms in the company.
• All customizations in HQ-SP13 must be verified after
the farm upgrade.

• Periodically, you must provide an offline copy of site
content from HQ-SP13 to the legal department.
Technical Requirements
You have the following technical requirements:
All users must be able to access the business data model for the company data warehouse.
Backup administrators must be able to restore HQ-SP13, WebApp1, and SvcApp1 separately.
The SharePoint 2013 environment for HQ-SP13 must meet the following technical
requirements:
• The database servers must run Microsoft SQL Server
2012.
• The databases must belong to a SQL Server AlwaysOn
Availability Group and use the WAN connection for database
replication between the sites.
• The database servers must be configured with the
Enable Contained Databases property.
• Application pools for the web applications require
unique service accounts.
• After the upgrade, users in the accounting department
who connect to WebApp1 must be able to access shared
resources in SvcApp1.
