Since we, in the company I work for, have rolled out 65,000 Office 365 licenses and are one of the most successful companies ever with Yammer and Teams, I had the great luck this year to be invited by Microsoft as a speaker to the Ignite 2018 in Orlando. Together with my colleague we held a total of 3 sessions and were interviewed in a podcast.
In the meantime the sessions are available on YouTube. The links to the videos can be found here:

SharePoint Document Converter
SharePoint Document Converter solution gives a start on how we can leverage the Word automation Service to convert documents to formats that word can support. This project convert documents of type "DOCX" or "DOC" to any possible file type that word support like to PDF, XPS, DOCX, DOCM, DOC, DOTX, DOTM, DOT, XML, RTF, MHT.
A lot of information these days comes in form of an eBook or similar format like a simple PDF. In SharePoint the easiest way to present this information to the user is as a list. For the more ambitious there is the metadata navigation, which brings a lot of beauty for handling list content. I will use a more sophisticated approach via the Content Query Webpart (CQWP) to present the information like books on the bookshelf.
Preparation
Before we can start, we’ll need to step back for a moment and think about the data structure we’ll need in order to support the view we are creating here. There are a few questions you must ask yourself:
Where and in which document library will you store you eBooks?
Will you mix different content types in that document library or will you create a new library for every document type?
In my case, I have more documents other than just eBooks. I’ve decided to keep all documents in a single document library and to identify the documents by their content type. Therefore, one of the first steps will be to create the library, the columns and the content type.
