Hi
We are evaluating SharePoint online and wanted to know if the following is possible? If yes, can anyone share his/her experience and issues faced?
- We want to deploy a provider-hosted app to a on-premise environment. This app will need to connect to SharePoint online. What are the requirements from hosting perspective for the on-premise server? Does the server require anything specific so that it is able to connect to SPOnline? Should it be outside the corporate firewall?
- What is the difference between SharePoint online standard and dedicated plans, in the context of Provider hosted app. Are there limitations with respect to what can & cannot be done in a Provider hosted app in these environments?
- How do I know if am using a SharePoint online standard or a dedicated plan? Where to look for?
I have seen few articles where the provider hosted app is deployed to windows azure and is connecting to SharePoint online. However this is not the case with us (i.e. we do not have windows azure for now)
Regards,
Deven
