I know its a simple solution and I have presented to some of my customer, Just wanted to get your opinion that is there a better way to handle these large document with SharePoint?
Please feel free to comment on it , I would like to see if there are better option leveraging any other apps with in MS 365
A slide from my Solution presentation.
When you have a large set of documents which are hundreds of thousands of pages, such as Product Manuals, corporate policies, Keying instructions files etc,...
Here are some customer use cases/ pain points with respect to handling large documents within their corporate content management space.
In such cases it is not advisable or even feasible to keep these large files in One Drive or SharePoint library. Splitting the files into smaller chunks and uploading is not an option either.
One solution that I implemented for one of our clients is to transform these large documents into SharePoint Wiki pages and load them into Wiki libraries. SharePoint Wiki pages are widely used in organizations and easy to create,edit, share information and collaborate with others. They are very intuitive to create and use and thus easy for the users to adopt and maintain.
Handling large electronic documents and other content can be cumbersome and time consuming for businesses, even though it is not as hard as maintaining a large volume of paper piles. SharePoint wiki pages and Enterprise Wiki sites are a simple yet effective solution that can address majority of these issues.
