The three most popular designs are single farms with either a single service application group or multiple service application groups, or Enterprise services farms.
Single farms with a single service application group are generally the most common, and have the advantages of easy deployment, simple service application allocation, effective resource utilization and cohesive management.
Single farms with multiple service application groups is less common, and have the advantage of potential individual management of service applications as well as allowing data isolation, and while being more complex to deploy and maintain allows targeting of sites to particular service applications.
Enterprise Service Farms is pretty uncommon as it is a complete farm dedicated to Service Applications but promotes autonomous management and high levels of data isolation.

The five components of an
information system are hardware, software, data,
procedures, and people. They are arranged symmetrically in the framework. The outermost
components, hardware and people, are both actors-they take action. The software and procedure
components are both sets of instructions: Software is instructions for hardware, and procedures
are instructions for people. Finally, data is the bridge between the computer side on the left and
the human side on the right. When an activity in a business
process is handled by an automated
system, it means that work formerly done by people following procedures has been moved so
that computers now do that work by following instructions in software. Thus, the automation of a
process activity consists of moving work from the right-hand side of the five-component
information system [IS] framework to the left.
The three sets of collaboration tools are the Minimal, Good, and Comprehensive tool
sets.
Their features are as follows:
1. The Minimal collaboration tool set has the minimum possible set of tools. With this set, a
participant should be able to collaborate with his or her team, though he or she will get little
support from the software.
2. With the Good collaboration tool set, a participant will have the ability to conduct multiparty
audio and video virtual meetings, and he or she will also have support for concurrent access to
document, spreadsheet, and
presentation files.
3. The Comprehensive collaboration tool set has a full set of features, including content
management and control, workflow control, online meetings in which participants can view
shared whiteboards, applications, and monitors.
