This is an old revision of the document!
As part of our effort to migrate to MS365, we tried to map out all the existing sync and google drive file shares, and all of the existing Co-op service and other work groups. Below is a diagram which captures these approximately (note we are aware it omits Sitka and has Support positioned incorrectly)
Out of this we create a number of MS365 Groups and related Teams that will provide the basic ways for you to share
Coming to understand Microsoft's terminology and how it is implemented in this software was one of the biggest challenges of this migration project because, frankly, it is just plain bad and confusing. This is my (Scott's) attempt at making it a little less so.
The term "groups" and "teams" get used in multiple ways in MS365 and depending on where you create a group, it has different implications and different sets of tools that gets deployed. The main ones we will focus on:
