M365 Cloud Storage Partner Program

The M365 Cloud Storage Partner Program is a program that helps Microsoft partners build solutions that leverage Microsoft 365 collaboration features on their own cloud storage.

The Microsoft Cloud Storage Partner Program (CSPP) enables Cloud Storage Providers to integrate the power of Microsoft Office for the web with their cloud-based storage solution, with minimal development time and effort.

Using the Web Application Open Platform Interface (WOPI) protocol, CSPP gives the ability to open Office files directly from partners’ cloud-based storage solution, providing users instant access to all the benefits of Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

 

The CSPP Plus program tier enables real-time coauthoring in Microsoft Office desktop applications, allowing users to collaborate on Office documents in real-time, with the same experience as they would have if they were using Office 365 storage.

 

I was the Engineering Manager for the delivery of the CSPP Plus program, as part of which I led integration efforts on the client teams as new partners joined the program, and I was responsible for the reliability of the product.
