We're in our early days with Confluence as an enterprise tool. We've
had certain groups using Confluence for a few years but now we're
openning it up to initially 2,000 users and eventually about 10,000
users (intranet only).
Does anyone have some pre-existing documentation re policies and
procedures around using and managing confluence and enterprise
collaboration that they can share, particularly in the government
space.
Thanks

I don't have any document handy but there are some basic rules that
helped us scale well beyond then numbers you mentioned:
- delegate delegate delegate (let users create spaces and be
responsible for their content, permissions, etc)
- be very careful about plugins you install (many 3rd party plugins
are crap and/or don't scale well)
- upgrades and custom UI changes will be easier if you don't let space
admins customize the UI or use custom themes
- put a disaster recovery plan in place (nightly backups, standby
servers)
- careful with clustering (even though many fixes were put in place
for 3.0, just last week we had an outage that I think was due to
clustering - still under investigation)
